I think I could have stomached the API changes and the end for Apollo/RIF. But the AMA and the reaction to the protests made me so incredibly upset and revealed how reddit gives absolutely zero fucks about its users and community. Huffman despises them. With this mindset there's no other way but downhill for reddit.
@Xenon @GonzoVeritas this was me. I could understand the financial reason for effectively closing the API. But the disdain for their user base that Huffman and his team showed in the AMA and the handling of the protests made me realize I don’t want to be in a place I’m not wanted.
