For me it’s wasn’t just about the ads, but that the official app is terrible compared to the great third-party clients out there.

Instead of shitting the bed and charging abusive API rates to the third-party apps developers, they could have just made the use of third-party apps require a Reddit Premium subscription at the end-user level. That way they’d have solved the inability to display ads to third-party users by making them pay, and third-party devs could have kept doing their thing without worrying about a hefty API bill.

But instead they chose to be a bunch of dickwads and alienate the devs and give the middle fingers to their most loyal userbase. I left my 16 years old account dormant since.

The FO phase of FAFO.

Bought and revived by Alexis Ohanian? It can only turn out into a dumpster fire. It’s probably just to diversify their data collection in case there’s an actual massive Reddit exodus and the brand name becomes too toxic.

One more reason to have actual open-source drivers instead of binary blobs…

Honestly, I’m just keeping my money in my saving account. No way I’m spending my hard-earned money on overpriced stuff, I can wait a while longer, and I’m considering a Steam Deck as my daily driver. Not a beast, but not excessively priced either.

I was dissappinted to see most of the Dems sitting in silence, with tiny protestation signs as if they were at an auction.

C’mon, make some noise, get in trouble, but do something!

I suggest whoever has old firmware files to upload them to the Internet Archive (if they allow those).

Silver lining, my wife is allergic to eggs so we use all sorts of replacement in recipes, like this
or just some applesauce.

…are you trying to tell them what their gender should be?
