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!

I for one am cheering its demise.

I don’t even use Twitter anymore, but after this, I went there just to delete my two accounts.

Wow that’s my Twitter and Reddit account deleted within 24 hours

Limit rating your core audience in their primary task is completely batshit crazy. Thank fuck for mastodon.

Keep punching yourself in the dick, elmo.

Everyone always saying “rip Twitter” but y’all never leave, so…

I know, somehow people aren’t leaving despite Elon’s best efforts.

You know things are going well when you have to restrict content consumption on your content platform.

Please please please let this be the breaking point at which big online personalities switch to mastodon, or at least start using those crossposting tools. That’s the only thing I miss from twitter and something RSS cant replace

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.

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

He is so unbelievably dumb?? 😅

I’m shocked, SHOCKED that killing the API would lead to web scraping! That was a completely unpredictable outcome.

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.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
