That’s not what you paid for regardless of whether it’s safe. But I wouldn’t

What users of Reddit are not realizing when they bash Apollo is that this is more than Apollo. It’s all third party apps. And this goes beyond third party Reddit clients. It’s also custom bots that “help” keep those subs clean-ish. People do not comprehend exactly what is impacted by API changes. The mods see it, people don’t.
NBC Is in on it as well. https://apple.news/ABf0fBhOISSS9Fe9vF1fLPw
“I’ll stand by you no matter what”
“Wait, I didn’t realize that I’d be sacrificing as well”
Standard motto today with people.
I would love to be a fly on the wall come July. If the advertisers start to pull their spots, the earth may rumble just a tad
This is exactly what humanity should be. We left Reddit for several reasons, one is toxicity. I’m getting too old for that shit
Memmy is offering better stability over Mlem at this point. Both are lacking features but are in their early stages and show great promise. This post is from Memmy
Exactly what I did. I’ll find other sources as they pop up. Too much time wasted filtering the bickering away from the few reliables
They won’t waste their time managing the subs until they see who returns tomorrow
Definitely looking forward to this.
User education will be key. Let’s face it, old time “Redditors” will look at the simplicity of creating an account, and looking at sub-reddits and say “I’m too old to learn a new way. This is too much”.
The seniors won’t leave, and the younger who don’t follow basic tech will be in the same boat. Just look around some of the subs there - they are entrenched.
This. For those that understand that standing up the infrastructure costs money, I don’t think paying a reasonable price would be out of the realm. Even the Apollo dev was stating that API should not be free, but reasonable.
Hopefully, but somehow I doubt the same amount would join. Those that are indefinite are not enough.
Had the subs gone off for longer (2 weeks) or indefinitely, the risk of Google bots dropping links may have shaken things up more. Personally, I don’t see Reddit going anywhere. There frankly is not enough backing for a sustained enough period of time. Reddit knows tomorrow subs who joined for 2 days will re-open.
Christian would have an opportunity to use much of the Apollo code and start over as a lemmy client. It’s too bad the sting is so fresh in his mind. He has built a reputation of a great app and would easily be able to start a small purchase charge for the app and then add features behind a small paywall.
How did that work out for Musk?
