This makes me want to legally change my name to admin admin

You… are correct.

Huh. I just saw CONCACAF and incorrectly assumed. Thanks for the heads up.

Honestly I forgot about the Gold Cup in general until my friends started talking on messenger before the Mexico match.

Shame he tweaked something before the half and we pulled him out of an abundance of caution.

Hopefully he can bury the hatchet with Berhalter. The kid is so good.

And I’m fine with them wanting to do that.

The protest was less about them wanting to charge a price, it’s that in a time frame of 6 months reportedly went from “the API won’t have changes anytime soon” to “we’re going to pivot to a paid API soon” to “we’re charging you advertiser rates per x million API requests, starting in a month, and you cannot supplement with your own ads”.

There was no time for these apps to adjust their pricing models. Most were on yearly subscription models or ad-driven. Having that large a pivot in the rules with no time to adapt the business model is just shitty partnership on Reddit’s part.

Not if I view them using those third party apps they apparently need to charge an arm and a leg for.

The problem is that it is not tagged NSFW, despite its source being an NSFW server, so its thumbnails come through unblurred.

I’d be in favor. They don’t bother to check their content as NSFW, and, to my knowledge there’s nothing that currently exists for an entire instance to have its content blanketly tagged in that manner.

I report, and I’m individually blocking communities on NSFW servers. But that won’t prevent their next magazine from causing the same issue.

I mean, personally, yeah. I’ve been on Narwhal + old reddit for half a decade at least.

Exactly. But they dropped exhorbitant cost on those apps and provided no runway for them to adapt their business model. So instead - I’m here on kbin and likely going to dive into an open source project to try to help get a mobile app for this out soon.

Yeah, I was an original buyer on reddit gold. Then I got 2 years free because of the Alien Blue shutdown, and I never reupped afterward, because it didn’t really add anything to the experience.

And by the looks of it “avatar upgrades” and “Custom app icons” ain’t really providing anything else of value still.

You can however reach a level of confidence about a negative.

Like, I can't prove that putting my VR headset on didn't actually send me to another world... but I've got a pretty high degree of confidence that it didn't.
