Narwhal just went behind the paywhal for me to today. So, I guess I’m finally done with Reddit now? I’ve been in there at least 14 years. It’s just wild to me that I lost Twitter and Reddit after so much time.
Reddit, Twitter, Netflix, YouTube all in a short time enshitificated.
I’ll tell ya one thing that’s changed. I deleted my posts and comments, along with my account last night after being inactive since June. Idiots
Check via Google, Reddit is known for recovering deleted comments against user consent.
If they haven’t reached deals with AI companies by limiting the API, then why haven’t they returned access to third party app developers? They obviously see how far their engagement and quality has dropped.
I won’t use their official app, ever.
Even if they return to the old standard, they have shown to be too unreliable and ready for scummy corporate decisions.
