    goood!
    Reddit behaved in such a horrible way, that I feel like API pricing was the least of the bad…

    One could argue about their fairness and aim to destroy 3rd party apps, and I had already closed my accounts at that very step.

    But the way they treated mods, forced subs to open and behaved like pure evil assholes, I really see how companies or more “official” subreddits with a touch of interest in their users, would feel the desire to leave and close bridges

      I feel the same way.
      As an Apollo user, I didn’t immediately leave since I wanted to see if some agreement would be done.

      But the way they treated the devs is insulting, I work on IT and know a bit of how complex and time consuming this is; doing all this work just to be considered a parasite to be cut, and seeing how horrible the AMA was; really showed Reddit’s true colors.

      Currently liking this federated initiative, big potential and less company ruining agenda. Very comfy here.
