Hi all! What’s your opinion? Let’s pretend reddit would give in to the protest and cancel the plan to increase the API pricing. Would all of you go back to Reddit or stay on Lemmy?
I mean… what has been said by the CEO cannot be unsaid now. We all now know what we are in the eyes of the CEO.
Maybe if reddit didn’t spend millions a year delivering images and videos through i.reddit and v.reddit instead of letting the perfectly viable 3rd party platforms continue to like they had 8+ years previously they wouldn’t be bleeding money for quite literally no reason.
I’m guessing they believe their long term profitability will come from the content, so they want to own as much as possible.
