I kinda like that they’re becoming more openly hostile. It’s fun to watch.
I still can’t believe they just came out and said that new users switching to Old Reddit is a problem that needs to be fixed, by removing their access to Old Reddit. You’d think they’d try to word it in a more deceptive manner at least. Or just keep it to themselves.
They’re going the way of Twitter and Facebook. They started with rich, open, and supported developer platforms. They actively courted devs. Once they hit critical mass (thanks to devs making the platform good and attracting users), they rug-pulled and became what they are now. Same thing is happening with Reddit.
Nah, I don’t really think so. People who use Reddit don’t use RSS or the API.

they want people to use the ugly and cumbersome new reddit UI, with the doomscrolling, and curated feeds.
Another great example : )
Some ppl might say that a company whose product is user generated content would try to be more like honey and less like vinegar.

reddit is now only used for google to scrape AI data from. and to that end they are forcing logins, and forcing out bots that arnt vetted by reddit.
