Don't forget that in the end of the month and July 1st the third party apps will disappear on reddit. That means more redditors will to like lemmy or squablles etc.
Do you have a source on this? 5 days ago the message was "P.S. old.reddit.com isnβt going anywhere".
A few months ago, the message was also "Reddit is not going to start charging for API access."
I'm not saying old.reddit.com is going away in the very near future, but I also wouldn't put too much trust into whatever spez says on any given day.
I don't disagree, but there's a big difference between "it might stop working sometime in the future, there's no way to know for sure" and "it will stop working somewhere around the date the API changes are made".
The first is a good guess, the second is just flat out wrong. Look, I don't like the reddit admins any more than the next guy, but there's no need to resort to straight up lying.
Yeah, we're not in disagreement here.
