Unlike many other large subreddits r/books has not made any statements about the API changes. I did try and post something about it but it ended up getting deleted. At 22.1 million users this would be a pretty significant addition to the protest.
Does anyone know why there hasn’t been anything official?
Honestly I really don’t mind that as much. Though obviously it would be best for subs to fully support the strike, i won’t ever criticize someone for maintaining free access to information. Restricting posts and making a post explaining the protest is a valid technique IMO
