just so this doesn't overwhelm our front page too much, i think now's a good time to start consolidating discussions. existing threads will be kept up, but unless a big update comes let's try to keep what's happening in this thread instead of across 10.

developments to this point:

The Verge is on it as usual, also--here's their latest coverage (h/t @[email protected]):

It’s not just Apollo: other Reddit apps are shutting down, too

other media coverage:

IANAL but even though their statements are "in public" but I doubt either of them would qualify as public figures - that is reserved for politicians and such.

That being said, spez here seems to have actually slandered iamthatis. This occurred when when spez claimed that iamthatis was "blackmailing" reddit for 10M$, which incidentally lead iamthatis to post audio recordings proving that spez was lying.

Maybe I've got some of those details wrong, so correct me if I am.
