goood!
Reddit behaved in such a horrible way, that I feel like API pricing was the least of the bad...

One could argue about their fairness and aim to destroy 3rd party apps, and I had already closed my accounts at that very step.

But the way they treated mods, forced subs to open and behaved like pure evil assholes, I really see how companies or more "official" subreddits with a touch of interest in their users, would feel the desire to leave and close bridges

I feel the same way.
As an Apollo user, I didn’t immediately leave since I wanted to see if some agreement would be done.

But the way they treated the devs is insulting, I work on IT and know a bit of how complex and time consuming this is; doing all this work just to be considered a parasite to be cut, and seeing how horrible the AMA was; really showed Reddit’s true colors.

Currently liking this federated initiative, big potential and less company ruining agenda. Very comfy here.

Welcome to the 'find out' phase, which should wrap up nicely by around the 7th.

I imagine because any impact won't be seen immediately and a week seems like a good amount of time

I'm guessing it's because it's a week after 3rd party apps shut down. A lot will change when that happens, and the 7th is far enough from the 30th to feel it.

I’m out of the loop here, what happens on the 7th?

It’ll take about a week for the ‘find out’ phase to wrap up, then we’re onto the lesser known ‘baby please come back I can change’ phase.

And like a gaslighting abusive ex they won't change!
