‘Nothing is changing’: Reddit flatly denies report that it might wall off its content - The Verge
You can put down the pitchforks.
Well, they've never lied before.... wait
Spez, the guy who lied at every change, is not lying this time.
Nothing is changing.
Something is definitely changing.
This is funny because isn't the main issue with federated content in relation to reddit that it is not easily googleable? So they are getting rid of the only advantage they have?
They lost so many content creators over the past few months, they'll need to give their enshitification ability extra cooldown time before going back to it. Almost assuredly post-IPO sometime.
Next reddit migration incoming!
Ugh, another September
Interesting, I didn't know about that
Great I wasn't thinking about it before but now I think that they WILL do this lol
Reddit spokesperson Tim Rathschmidt tells The Verge, clarifying that the company’s earlier “nothing is changing” comment only applied to logins.
Glad to hear it; Spez and Reddit have been so trustworthy about prior changes, I have no reason to doubt them for this.*
*~Doubt: HEAVILY~
Whatever do you mean? Spez is completely honest and upstanding! /s
So glad I downloaded, overwrote, and then deleted all my content before I switched to the Fediverse
Nothing is changing
That's the same thing they told us regarding 3rd party apps. And it's the reason why many of us are here.
