I'm still in the process of moving old saves off my Reddit account and found this gem today. Reddit HQ is coping hardcore, I can't image regular users actually care about this.
I see any “announcement” by Reddit as pathetic attempts to regain legitimacy. Ain’t gonna happen. If Spez is fired and all connections to him are severed I might sniff around Reddit again. But it would be like getting a drink with an ex you’re over. I wouldn’t be there to rekindle anything, just morbidly curious how big of a dumpster fire they are.
Spez must go, that's out of question, but more importantly 3rd party apps must stay, because the place is borderline unusable without them.
Translation: see how we are the real victims here.
They're literally shitting on their free labor here.
Look how reliant our unpaid workforce is on third-party tools!
I imagine bots are all that's going to be left
Bots and confused conservatives.
I see this on the account I got my API keys out of, but not in the others, so I think it's directed to us who use personal bots for whatever reason.
Doesn't really make it less pathetic though. Every time I see that, I just laugh and let Shreddit run thrice a day as a fuck you (until June 29, ofc. I don't want to Steve Huffman go all huffy on me, lol!)
I've never made a Reddit bot (or used one for that matter) or requested an API key though, so I'm not sure what triggered it for me.
Have you ever been a mod? I was made mod in a subreddit long time ago, but i left it. I also got modinfo from reddit from time to time so i figured thats what it was that caused me to see this
Never been a mod, never had a bot…but I got it, too.
