According to wikipedia the subreddit blackout started on June 12, do you think that date qualify to marked it ?
All the mods achieved was further alienation from their communities who didn’t even that Apollo existed.
Most other 3rd party applications are still running under a paid subscription to cover their API usage bill.
The only reason I am here is because of the higher transparcey if mods start power tripping, at least we can see it in the mod log.
Personally there were 3 key events
- May 31, 2023 is when the details of the API change surfaced and the snowball of opinion started rolling down hill.
- June 12: the blackout started and I moved to the Threadiverse.
- June 28? - July 1, Reddit started to force subs back online by any means necessary, which is what made me realize I wouldn’t be going back.
Every day is fuck u/spez day
It is clearly July 21st, as shown on the banner of this community.
