because they think it’s just some dude who profitted off of reddit’s goodwill without giving anything back, and now poor ol’ reddit just wants to make a couple bucks to pay the bills.
Yeah, essentially taking spez’s word for it. Ignoring the fact that before April, Reddit used bend over backwards to help developers. Christian Selig even said nothing but great things about Reddit corporate before they dropped the bomb.
Don’t tell me Reddit didn’t know people were writing third-party apps.
That is why there are so many baby accounts or long dormant accounts that suddenly came to life in the last couple weeks. This is a company which is coming off a month-long campaign of libeling and slandering its top third party developers, and then gish galloping all over the site after the recordings and emails were published.
Then you have Huffman idolizing Musk, saying he wants to do to Reddit what Musk did to Twitter.
Good third party apps cannot come to Lemmy and Kbin fast enough.
It blows my mind that people are actually defending Reddit on this.

But we ended up with garbage like this: https://youtu.be/JHDrK2E62SA
I seriously think Reddit is operating a sock puppet scheme to push a narrative. They’ve done it before, and they’ve bragged about it to the press.

It’s really at the point where I hate everything about reddit and don’t actually trust that it’s not doing shit like this on a huge scale
Tbf I think a lot of the “people” defending Reddit on this are bots …
Are there? Must be a bigsub/shill thing.
