This is collapse related because this wildfire is as created so much pollution, that the worlds top city in terms of the economy is becoming unlivable. Sure this will clear up, but will this be the last time? People will start to migrate away from this city due to the unhealthy air quality.
That is a great point. I never considered this to be an effect of interest rates increasing. But I think Reddit was already profitable.
But it recently went public and I think the board is like, “Make more money now!”
They really just want to get everyone on the Reddit app so they can collect user data to sell and to show advertisements.
Once, Apollo shuts down, this site will get hit hard. I look forward to it and want to make as many posts as I can to increase the level of activity.
I am holding onto my Reddit account for the time being as I did not need an email address to create it. But if they ever demand an email address, I will just delete the accounts.
It is sad to see an amazing app become rendered useless due to some companies greed. They were not even being reasonable with pricing nor did they really give the dev time to figure out what to do.
I really hope that everyone leaves reddit and comes to the fediverse. Mastodon had a huge boost and it completely replaced twitter for me. I am sure Lemmy can do the same.
I am not a hardcore programmer, but anytime I code anything, I use vscodium. It is VScode without the microsoft telemetry.
