Fuck you /u/spez, you fragile fucking snowflake
Reddit's own guidance on the topic says the presence of profanity could cause a post or a sub to be NSFW.
A moderator toggling their sub NSFW due to the presence of profanity would be fully in line with their own guidance, and I'm pretty sure r/shittylifeprotips had a little profanity. (Hint: it's in the name.)
Reddit is just desperately trying to interpret their rules in whatever way they desire because they're panicking at losing revenue.
The valuation drop by Fidelity took place over time, mostly last year, so it's unrelated to the API changes. That said, I agree the admins have chosen very poorly. With the amount of money on the table, buying out 3rd party apps would have been a steal compared to the massive hit to goodwill among their users and mods they're taking now.
But it comes in bigger cans, so you can spray longer. A reasonable tradeoff under some conditions.
