It looks like a lot of people think the blackout is pointless and support Reddit's choice (www.reddit.com)

"This is the most neckbeard thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Reddit is a business trying to make money, no shit they are going to get rid of third party apps eventually. Welcome to the real world. You are not being oppressed. This protest has zero effect on anything other than just inconveniencing users. If losing third party apps ruins your reddit experience (oh no) just find another app or website."

"This is absolutely stupid virtue signaling. It’s just a few power hungry mods pretending to add some meaning to their life so the other 99% can’t use the platform.

None of us regular people give a crap about the changes. Get over it."

Well that was a frustrating read. I don't get it. Why are people so okay with reddit treating them like garbage?

Those are most likely the same people who think games should have paid dlc on day one and paywalls in games. Best to never think about em until they are all crying that Reddit turns into 90% ads for onlyfans

Those are Gamers™.

They aren't exactly people known for their critical thinking. They are however known for eating a whole bunch of shit from game publishers and devs, even going as far as thanking them for being able to buy said crap-sandwich.

I was going to say, "Gamers are being buttholes? No way."

At least here they're being shit on like the weak-willed idiots they are.
