If you take out the AI part it still holds true. 2023 is full of bullshit.

The only thing you missed is that the devs actually couldn’t keep their own deadline for the api change so until now the 3rd party apps still worked.

Actually people can custom patch the apps with their own api key and they still work. This is how I stay up to date with these news.

Atmosphere on Reddit became quite bizarre nowadays. Users are angry against the mods who kept the subs restricted/private instead of the company itself. The stupidity is insane.

The API changes rolled out recently. I guess op is referring to that.
