I can’t wrap my head around this, it seems so bizarre. The only reason I’m here now is because I joined Apollo right after Reddit changed its app to remove the sort by rising feature. It completely changed my experience on the app for the worse and I sought out an alternative, and I know I’m not the only one that had this complaint. I was a faithful Reddit user/poster on the official app for 6 years until just a few months ago. Why would they make their app less user friendly a few months before announcing the crazy API changes. They drove me away from their app and then drove me away from the site altogether.

Anyone have any thoughts on this? It just makes no sense to me

    Because reddit is run by a bunch of greedy losers who want to go public, pump, dump, and fuck off to wherever the next Little Saint James is.

      I also heard that a certain admin on a certain forum has a thing for children, but surely its just a rumor

        Yea. Venture capitalists and the value extracting investor class are quite literally leeches on all productive companies. You’re damn right this shit is happening to us personally. All that “inflation”? It’s the investor boards ensuring their profits continue growing. Reddit is but another victim.
