How the fuck is Reddit closing their API behind a ridiculous paywall only the SECOND stupidest social media move of the day
Boy I sure picked the wrong day to quit sniffing glue
Well I picked the wrong day to quit amphetamines!
The day is not over yet
You know things are going well when you have to restrict content consumption on your content platform.
I for one am cheering its demise.
Limit READIND is something new. What a creative move!
Limit rating your core audience in their primary task is completely batshit crazy. Thank fuck for mastodon.
I don’t even use Twitter anymore, but after this, I went there just to delete my two accounts.
He is so unbelievably dumb?? 😅
Wow that’s my Twitter and Reddit account deleted within 24 hours
LOL this is ridiculous. Great work Elon!
wow, this is actually amazing.
You’d think a rapidly developing service like Lemmy might face restrictions like that due to resources but Twitter? Mismanagement beyond belief.
You know the fediverse isn’t perfect but it seems more sustainable than these big social media companies that are not profitable. Reddit and Twitter make no real money but want to host everything on their website and I’m not entirely sure why. Image boards like 4chan purge all their data and the fediverse is spread out to a bunch of different servers. What’s the point of keeping everything forever on one server? Do they really think that all that junk data is valuable?
Also why did reddit go from just hosting text to hosting images and videos? It used to be a link aggregation site now it’s a never leave our borders site I don’t understand how that’s going to be profitable with how much hosting that data is going to cost.
Years ago I used to hit like 15 websites a day just for video game news and discussion then it became all reddit.
Miss the good ole days of imgur, YouTube, and porn on gfycat
As Cory Doctorow termed it, it’s the enshittification of the Internet - all for the sake of “shareholder value” It’s a proper “can’t see the wood for the trees” business

Everyone always saying “rip Twitter” but y’all never leave, so…
I know, somehow people aren’t leaving despite Elon’s best efforts.
This is the result of a deranged fascist being born with an apartheid silver spoon in his mouth.
Probably an emerald spoon in his case.
Indeed!
But there’s no proof his father even owned emerald mines!! I mean outside public records and his father’s admission and assertion that it’s true!!
Name me one piece of evidence outside that!! You can’t
300 posts is what, maybe 10 minutes of scrolling if you don’t actually engage with much of the content…? Brilliant idea.
