Hi all! What's your opinion? Let's pretend reddit would give in to the protest and cancel the plan to increase the API pricing. Would all of you go back to Reddit or stay on Lemmy?

I mean.. what has been said by the CEO cannot be unsaid now. We all now know what we are in the eyes of the CEO.

I think I’m giving up on the wealth of content/knowledge that is in reddit, but I will basically stop using it. I might still google a question and add “reddit” at the end, but I won’t be on there for game subreddits or any other subreddit. I realize personally I can live without it, and the company’s actions have just really soured how I feel about reddit. I used to feel ambivalent about reddit, I just used it, but now I’m actually upset

It’s crazy because I would have never even thought I’d be unhappy with reddit until they pulled this. Im not a mod, I had no idea the back and forth that’s going on between between them and the company.

It feels wrong for the ceo to threaten mods that way to stop striking and then we all go back to reddit, nevermind that those mods will just mod without their tools on apollo. I just can’t feel good going back to the app, I would actually rather quit and go without the forums I liked
