OMG this thread is wild!
Today was ... interesting. If you followed me for the past months over on the shitbird site, you might have seen a bunch of angry German words, lots of graphs, and the occassional news paper, radio, or TV snippet with yours truely.

I talked with @christianselig about how it has affected Apollo, the best iOS Reddit client out there.
