Tbh everyone just needs to leave reddit

Let the bots take over

It's always been Stormfront 2.0 anyway

Fuck reddit

Ironically this API issue will kill bots, which was needed.

It will only slow them temporarily you don't need api for bots

[–] Kichae@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, it'll only kill the useful ones in the long run.

Yeah. The unethical bots will just use scrapers, as they already do for the many websites that don't offer APIs. They're already violating ToS, so they don't care. Ethical ones won't have that option (at least not past the fairly low quota).

I'm eager to see how reddit becomes a steaming turd after June 30th, that imbecile is gonna end up with nothing of value in his hands. Let's see where that profit comes from then
