A lot of Reddit will go dark soon in protest of API changes
What I find kind of hilarious is that many people, like me, are upset the in-app experience is gonna get severely downgraded when third-party apps get pushed into closing, and are reacting by… moving to a place like kbin that doesn’t have an app at all.
It really shows that the broader issue is much bigger than usability. What kbin has that Reddit has lost is user confidence that improvements will come and will be driven by community needs and not profit.
Rooting for you, kbin!
Reddit was once the same upstart in the shadow of digg. We hope that Apollo and other such Devs will pivot to kbin or other fediverse apps quickly. We just need to be clear on the direction of where we are going. Right now the messaging is not clear. I was on Lemmy before I heard about more questionable areas there which is what led me to kbin.
