I wiped and deleted my account, and haven’t been back except for a few specific searches and occasional clicks from Lemmy links. But part of me still has some hope that there will be changes that lead to a reversal back to free API, or at least that each new story and new fuckup will continue to push more people to Lemmy. More broadly, corporate fuckups in general will hopefully push people to decentralized platforms, so it’s always going to be interesting to read about.
I mean, we are on a Reddit clone that was created out of spite years ago, so bad news about Reddit will be relevant here for a while.
