The last major holdouts in the protest against Reddit’s API pricing relented, abandoning the so-called “John Oliver rules” which only allowed posts featuring the TV host. It's the official end of the battle. The Reddit protest is over, and Reddit won.
Exactly. I no longer visit Reddit since the incident. I know I’m one person but there are others just like me. Fuck Reddit. I mean digg. Or do I mean Reddit? Ceo is a loser.
I am right here, and there are many more. I quit reddit about a week before the blackout. I used to be a power user, I’m talking more than 3 hours a day easily. I made a few post, but most of my engagement was from comments. I quit cold turkey, actively avoiding reddit result from google searches.
Fast forward to today, and I still don’t use it out of spite. I still avoid it if I can but if there are search results from Google that have answers to my specific problem on reddit, I will read the comments with ad-block on and move on to another website if the reddit link did not provide a solution.
I respect your spite and dedication.
