The last major holdouts in the protest against Reddit’s API pricing relented, abandoning the so-called “John Oliver rules” which only allowed posts featuring the TV host. It's the official end of the battle. The Reddit protest is over, and Reddit won.
Wow, that cover photo gave me nostalgia, and I wasn’t even young in 2006. Already seems like a distant era.
I think Reddit and Twitter will just become garbage, zombie platforms like Yahoo - still around but basically irrelevant. We’ll see. I was an avid Redditor and quit about two months ago. Honestly I don’t miss it at all. It had already become garbage before the whole blow-up.
