Yeah Reddit won but the Reddit users lost. Lost access to awesome apps most of all. I personally think it’s fair for Reddit to charge for API access but it seems hardheaded to charge orders or magnitude more per user than they make on their own platform through advertising. I currently only use Reddit on desktop because I’m not going to use their crappy official app. Indeed I lost out, congrats Spez on your victory. In the meantime I’m on Lemmy more than I used to be and I hardly ever comment on Reddit posts anymore.
If he keeps going like that, Uncle Sam might soon throw in free room and board for him.
Lemmy is Fun? 👍
Now we just need Reddit is Fun for Lemmy.
We really don’t have disdain for the Americans. Most Americans I’ve met have been great.
