"This is the most neckbeard thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Reddit is a business trying to make money, no shit they are going to get rid of third party apps eventually. Welcome to the real world. You are not being oppressed. This protest has zero effect on anything other than just inconveniencing users. If losing third party apps ruins your reddit experience (oh no) just find another app or website."

"This is absolutely stupid virtue signaling. It’s just a few power hungry mods pretending to add some meaning to their life so the other 99% can’t use the platform.

None of us regular people give a crap about the changes. Get over it."

They seem to forget that the 1% are the ones actually providing the content. Reddit itself doesn't make the content, they just host it. Unless you're going to step up and become the 1%, your site is still going to be shit.

When inevitably the next fuck up afflicts reddit, and it will, those of use who already converted to lemmy or whatever will have made and even better home. Each time it happens, the alternatives will be made stronger, and reddit will come back weaker.
