I decided to check Reddit just to see what it looked like with about half the subreddits in existence privated and found I had notifications in my inbox but couldn't see any of them. I guess that's what happens when you get notifications from a recently privated sub? |

Well there are special circumstances. Best to just talk about it to find a solution that works. if we are back then maybe you even need a day delay until word gets out and episodes watched. you might even be able to get the mods to post some messages for rewatches regarding the new plan. |

https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/13/23759559/reddit-internal-memo-api-pricing-changes-steve-huffman Hi Snoos, Starting last night, about a thousand subreddits have gone private. We do anticipate many of them will come back by Wednesday, as many have said as much. While we knew this was coming, it is a challenge nevertheless and we have our work cut out for us. A number of Snoos have been working around the clock, adapting to infrastructure strains, engaging with communities, and responding to the myriad of issues related to this blackout. Thank you, team. We have not seen any significant revenue impact so far and we will continue to monitor. There’s a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we’ve seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well. The most important things we can do right now are stay focused, adapt to challenges, and keep moving forward. We absolutely must ship what we said we would. The only long term solution is improving our product, and in the short term we have a few upcoming critical mod tool launches we need to nail. While the two biggest third-party apps, Apollo and RIF, along with a couple others, have said they plan to shut down at the end of the month, we are still in conversation with some of the others. And as I mentioned in my post last week, we will exempt accessibility-focused apps and so far have agreements with RedReader and Dystopia. I am sorry to say this, but please be mindful of wearing Reddit gear in public. Some folks are really upset, and we don’t want you to be the object of their frustrations. Again, we’ll get through it. Thank you to all of you for helping us do so. -spez I think we'll be without Reddit for awhile. #emiliaohdear |

He had to know it would leak. You know there are still some old-school admins who are against this kind of thing and would leak this memo. In particular this paragraph reads like it was meant for public consumption: While the two biggest third-party apps, Apollo and RIF, along with a couple others, have said they plan to shut down at the end of the month, we are still in conversation with some of the others. And as I mentioned in my post last week, we will exempt accessibility-focused apps and so far have agreements with RedReader and Dystopia. So it's interesting to think about if he had considered the public response after the leak. Because once again this looks terrible, like the AMA. Either he really does think Reddit will be fine because the blackout largely ends tomorrow, or he's setting up for a compromise that still monetizes the API. Honestly the latter isn't a bad idea, but based on that AMA disaster the former seems more likely to me. |

chiliehead said: I'm just idk man. he's definitely an egotistical techbro, but he can't be that inept? Well he certainly knows the userbase, only a small fraction is directly affected by the API changes, some will begrudgingly go to the main app, some will stop using Reddit on mobile on mobile, a few will stop using Reddit entirely. Whether he's inept is gonna largely depend on the mods response, since they're the most affected by the changes (3rd party apps mod tools, although again old.reddit will trod along most likely unscathed...for now), the question is how many will stop working for free and abandon the platform. Surely the quality of said subs will go down (on average), but how much and how quickly is anybody's guess, as well as how that will impact the general health of the platform as a whole (not in term of quality, rather revenue-metrics: number of users, engagement levels, bounce rates, etc). Like, even if a few subs go to shit due to mods quitting/getting booted and replaced, how many users will Reddit lose in the grand scheme of things? I don't know, but I fear not enough to make a dent, in which case yeah he would not be inept, just an asshole. |

It was kind of an odd choice to put a deadline on the blackout. An attempt to be reasonable to the admins sure, but it doesn't appear to have had much of an effect. I'm curious where that duration originated from. Perhaps a second blackout? I feel like the movement is now splintered, with each sub doing what they think is reasonable. The subs holding on are in a more tenuous position with others opening back up. |

From the AnimeThemes discord: parametrized said: Update: the abuse team has decided against taking any action for the time being, so service will continue. I will be transferring out infra to staff. Discussions on more claim-resilient hosting should definitely continue. I don't think the current ecosystem is safe considering the fact that we have drawn eyes to ourselves and it's now clear that there are people out there who are eager to file these claims. So at least for now it's safe |

Reddit CEO Steve Huffman said Thursday that he wants to bring an end to a user-led protest that has made large swaths of the influential website inaccessible this week. Huffman said he plans to institute rules changes that would allow Reddit users to vote out moderators who have overseen the protest, comparing them to a “landed gentry.” A multi-millionaire calls unpaid moderators landed gentry. Stage two of the blackout begins. And with everyone protesting gone, the votes will go spez's way. #mugiwait |

Reddit has told the /r/apple mods the blackout is over. If a moderator team unanimously decides to stop moderating, we will invite new, active moderators to keep these spaces open and accessible to users. If there is no consensus, but at least one mod wants to keep the community going, we will respect their decisions and remove those who no longer want to moderate from the mod team.

A random thing about changes to Reddit I just noticed is that when creating a new account, you now need an email address. It definitely wasn't like that before, even fairly recently when I made my current reddit account. |
