I’m still in the process of moving old saves off my Reddit account and found this gem today. Reddit HQ is coping hardcore, I can’t image regular users actually care about this.

    I see any “announcement” by Reddit as pathetic attempts to regain legitimacy. Ain’t gonna happen. If Spez is fired and all connections to him are severed I might sniff around Reddit again. But it would be like getting a drink with an ex you’re over. I wouldn’t be there to rekindle anything, just morbidly curious how big of a dumpster fire they are.

      Spez must go, that’s out of question, but more importantly 3rd party apps must stay, because the place is borderline unusable without them.

      They’re literally shitting on their free labor here.

      Look how reliant our unpaid workforce is on third-party tools!

    I see this on the account I got my API keys out of, but not in the others, so I think it’s directed to us who use personal bots for whatever reason.

    Doesn’t really make it less pathetic though. Every time I see that, I just laugh and let Shreddit run thrice a day as a fuck you (until June 29, ofc. I don’t want to Steve Huffman go all huffy on me, lol!)

      I’ve never made a Reddit bot (or used one for that matter) or requested an API key though, so I’m not sure what triggered it for me.

        Have you ever been a mod? I was made mod in a subreddit long time ago, but i left it. I also got modinfo from reddit from time to time so i figured thats what it was that caused me to see this
