Evening all, This is a really tough post to write but following my post the other day I think the best course of action is to shut down Sync before the new API changes go live.

Went out for drinks with my brother this eve, we had a bit of a conversation about the Reddit shitshow.

He uses Sync, and he pretty much said he'd nuke his Reddit account if Spez doubled down. He's been an active user since the days where Digg co-existed.

I don't think this is going to outright kill the site, but imagine the hit if millions of users collectively abandoned Reddit.
