First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

Since they bought Alien Blue in my opinion, but now they made a announcement to change completely ridiculous prices for api 12k for 50M pulls (166 usd is the norm for that) they efficiently kill third party apps and probably a lot of community bots.
(for better understanding, Apollo (a third party ios app) has about 7 Billion pulls per month with a user average of 344 per day, wich would cost 2,50 usd per user per Month, totaling 20 Million a year, it goes without saying that this is completely and utterly ridiculous)
Reddit might have pissed off some of its users but most people will just use the official app.
Reddit isn’t going anywhere.
“most users” aren’t contributing anything either, and the mods are the important people there to run the website, and many of them have been very pissed off by reddit with that.
Reddit is definitely going somewhere, but definitely not to a relevant place, they digg themselves…
Yeah. I think it’s easy to forget how small a percentage of people it is that actually comment and post. Most “active users” are just voters.
I think it’ll go down, but very slowly. Which is possibly for the best anyways. Though many of the users will just divert to other corporate platforms that will inevitably do equally shitty things.
