“This is the most neckbeard thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Reddit is a business trying to make money, no shit they are going to get rid of third party apps eventually. Welcome to the real world. You are not being oppressed. This protest has zero effect on anything other than just inconveniencing users. If losing third party apps ruins your reddit experience (oh no) just find another app or website.”
I have to say imo it would be awesome if the “Rexxit” leads to a split between people interested in tech and ready for change and the “normies” that just want to see funny cat pictures. I am mightily impressed by the whole Lemmyverse and all the stuff one can do here.
Having even the slightest technical barrier to entry is a quick way to increase the quality of user-user experience. It takes a dedicated shit-poster to troll a brand new platform with a reduced audience and unusual community layout.
