The funniest part of the article is how he's slamming the actions of unpaid moderators while saying "they’re mad because they used to get something for free, and now it’s going to be not free".

Really, the best part about all this shit is Reddit could've implemented a paid 3rd party API that wasn't insane. They could've updated their terms of service and required 3rd party apps to display ads. Shit, they could've leveraged the existing OAuth stuff to limit the 3rd party API access to users with Reddit Gold.

But nah, spez decided to be a greedy shitbird.
