If you think about it further, everything is fire.

Haha, it only hurt because it was true. Hopefully it’s performing much better now.

Huh, we’re a meme already. All publicity is good publicity I guess.

My god, what a weird experience that was.
I’ve been using old.reddit over the last couple of days to manage my bot as it shreds my old account histories, so to look at that interface without feeling sad is very unnerving.

Haha, Liftoff! to the rescue. Full usernames FTW

And to think we were all here for this glorious day. What a story to tell our children.

Nice. I’ve seen more enjoyable stupidity here in six days than on mastodon in six months.

Yeah, this seems very unlikely to go anywhere other than in gaining media attention (which is a fair aim to have at this point).

It wants to keep control of how people get access to its data. The recent massive surge of interest in A.I.s means that there's a lot of people looking for good quality datasets to train new models. Reddit is sitting on a goldmine, and it currently handing out gold nuggets for free.
It wants to charge these desperate users of its data through the nose for that access, and $12,000 per 50M API calls is the market rate it has determined (and it is clearly comfortable that existing commercial users of its data such as marketers will also pay those rates).
The fact that this will kill third party clients is just the icing on the cake. If reddit wanted to kill such clients it would just turn off voting and comments in the API.
