I deleted Reddit from my phone and I have all email notifications off, I don't get Reddit Notifications anymore.

The r/blind mods said RedReader stopped working for them what a total clusterfuck to have the key accessible app not work while others are.

i guess no one saw that coming

The thing is that it really is no longer about 3rd party apps working or not, rather, the level of disrespect displayed from Reddit towards us, their userbase. That's why I'm not going back.

AlecSadler ,

Exactly. Relay user here and it'll continue to function but...

  1. Fuck spez
  2. I don't care to support reddit anymore
  3. Reddit's content for my feed is already turning to garbage. I'm already finding kbin and lemmy better.

Good riddins.

Booooo

Exactly this. There is now actual conversarion and I'm finding interesting content again.

GataZapata ,

Nr. 3 is the main point. I prefer less content if it's not reposts, ragebait and bots

const_void ,

Yep. Fuck Reddit. It's fallen to the normies now. I'm glad to have my tech nerd discussions and news here in the fediverse now.

Blazze ,

The app still works for me. But I've been hearing Reddit has shut down the old mod API token, but not the regular token yet. So that might explain a little. However, RedReader was granted accessibility exemption so who knows what's going on.

conciselyverbose ,

Give Apollo a contract guaranteeing free API access until the end of time without nonsense restrictions on content and maybe I'd think about it. Short of that I'm all set.

(No it's not just Apollo. But he's the most wronged and the one I use.)

His name is Steve Huffman, using Spez means he gets to avoid a lot of the public criticism through google searches etc.

Moogly ,

The leadership is too much for me. Too many right wing shitbirds with conspiracy delusions, too much open partying with Ghislaine(sp?) Maxwell, and too many mishandled scandals relating to sexual content with minors.

Huffman (Spez) gave some interview where he talks about civilization falling and he’d “be a slaver rather than a slave” (paraphrasing, I don’t have the interview open) which is just wild because he’s scrawny as fuck.

There’s always rumors of an IPO but I feel like the current staff isn’t fit to head a public company and would crumble under wide public scrutiny like on the markets

ClassyDave ,

Good riddance?

You saw your chance to shine and took it, huh?

Moogly ,

It’d be a preferable situation if it were either/or but even then I realize I’m probably not big and bad enough to strong arm myself into that position everyone else would rather have.

Spez is/was a doomsday prepper though I think he figures he’s got an edge over everyone else

Moogly ,

Traffic quality plays a big role too. If you never click on or engage with any ads your visits aren’t worth much anyway. You could even vpn yourself from a poor country and be considered even less valuable to the ad machines lol

aeternum ,

Did I mention, "fuck spez"?

Anomalous_Llama ,

I’m struggling to find as much interesting content as I did on Reddit. BUT I am much more easily finding pleasant conversations. And that I think is more important.

I’m posting more here than I did on Reddit because I want to be the change I want! Also I’m still learning to navigate this place too. I like it though.

I see what you did there

2023 certainly does feel like the year where you're getting less for more.

@Bendersmember@kbin.social avatar

Hey at least they're doing it across the board for all us plebs, that way it's fair and can affect everything.

Oshka ,
@Oshka@kbin.social avatar

I'm having a different experience with the content but can understand where you are coming from. I spent a lot of time searching out the niche communities I'm interested in and subscribing across all the instances i can find. Trying to actually post more too and encourage others.

The conversation aspect is so true though. It's been the most present surprise and is part of what's driving me to engage and start posting.

I doubt any of these third party apps are going to recoup the named API cost with so many people fleeing reddit. Seems like a big gamble to me. Maybe Relay re-negotiated the price.

I wonder if they just high balled, expecting app creators to negotiate them down instead of taking the offer public and burning things to the ground.
