I'm saying whether people agree with the new structure or not doesn't matter anymore, since reddit has made their decision and isn't going to roll it back. It is what it is. Changing reddit's mind is over.
People either pay to use the api or don't. And my meaning of standing with reddit is that Id rather people not pay to use reddit. Just happens to be either reasoning of reddit's being to get rid of third party apps or mine of don't give reddit money by paying for third party apps leads to not using third party apps.
Browser use costs nothing, so that's route I push for if having to comment while on mobile. There's local dns or adblockers on mobile, so ads don't matter. Whatever excuses people use to pay for third party apps it just signals to me that it's the reason why the protest failed because they may be vocal about giving reasons for why reddit is in the wrong, but not actually able to make the decision of limiting use. They showed reddit they are loyal users even if disgruntled.
