I completely agree with you but I think that the majority of Reddit users don’t care and in 6 months time, this debacle will be completely forgotten by them and revenue will have completely recovered. I don’t think I’m being cynical about it, I’m just going by past cases(FB, Twitter, etc.). The majority of users simply don’t care.
I don’t think it’s necessarily newsworthy as they’ve stated they would do that since the beginning of the uprising. They would be silly to sit on their thumbs while losing communities with millions of subs to protest. Open it, recruit a few people that could care less about 3rd party access and keep raking in that dough.
I’m an actual person. Beep, boop whirrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
I use both Windows and linux daily. I don’t have an issue with either.
