Subreddits and third-party apps are going dark in response to Reddit’s proposed API changes. It’s the latest front in a labor battle between algorithms and the humans who feed them.

Reddit never gave a shit about the users tbh.

I once modded a sub that got brigaded by some shitheads and they ended up harassing one mod who posted about her father that just died.

Begged the admins in private messages to help us stop this bullshit and they never did anything.

Later we added a mod who we removed when he found he created hate subreddits. That guy then led another brigage against the sub by lying about why we removed him.

Admins didn't help again :/

Eventually that shithead got permy banned from Reddit for making those hate subs but that took months after I asked for help.
