What's with companies destroying themselves while attempting to maximize profits.
They clearly don't believe that change will in any way destroy them, just as Reddit's API move did not destroy Reddit. I am sorry for being cynical, but the reality is people don't care.
I'll happily lurk and absorb content and provide no interaction back, not wasting my time curating / generating content for them anymore.
Same here, on old.reddit only, with adblocker enabled of course. On my phone I will not go to reddit at all.
On DuckDuckGo you can use:
