I’ll be honest - I don’t think I’ll stop using reddit completely. There are just too many subs there that aren’t here that I’m interested in. I might just use reddit whenever I’m on pc (which would be far far less since I’m usually on mobile). I’m still staying here, though, and try to be as active as I can.
If they don’t change course they will. But even if they do change course on API fees, if they still plan on an ipo, then its only a matter of time until they find another way to enshitify their site.
Same. The upcoming API change was really just the final straw that I felt personally that the reddit that I’ve used well over a decade was no longer where I wanted to be. I didn’t want to become targeted and used for someones profit (with the upcoming reddit IPO). Really I’ve felt that way since the redesign and the official app came out. Just finally was bothered enough to make the switch.
I figured why wait to make the switch, hence this comment is here, and not on Reddit.

I’m in the same boat as you, but I’m hoping to see Reddit experience the consequences of their greed.
