The other claim is that “reddit doesn’t care about blind people” which is the most ridiculous claim of all. The new site design is WCAG AA compliant. I did both an automated assessment with WAVE and used VoiceOver to confirm. It is useable for blind users with standard screen readers and other ATs.
Is it easier with apps? Sure. But it’s not impossible.
What went wrong is simple and clear as day: People did not commit to their protest. Only a fraction of those who took part made the important step of quitting reddit altogether. Because the protest was limited, reddit absorbed the hit.
If you’re not willing to give up your abuser, you’re destined to be battered.
It is important to remember that you owe these platforms nothing. There is life after an endless stream of dopamine hits. Just walk out.
So this confirms all the studies and adages of conservative voters being less intelligent, more subject to scams and fraud, and less accepting of social norms.

Neat. Where does your ONT connect to?
What really told me that reddit was squandering its revenue sources was when they shuttered redditgifts two years ago. Maybe there were issues behind the scenes, but they had commissions from the storefront and from elves, and something reddit has never been particularly good at: Good publicity. And instead of figuring out how to make it profitable, they just killed it.
They didn’t even bother to answer questions why.
It was at that moment I knew the current leadership was rudderless, and now everyone’s finally come around to it.
Terrible decisions? I would say they’re really conservative about it and it shows. It took them probably a decade to make an AR headset and it looks like it may succeed. They said nothing about AI lately, presumably because they’re waiting to see how it matures.
The option they should have gone for was to put the onus of 3PA on users: Either you pay for reddit premium or you use the app. This would have worked out more and I absolutely would pay a fair price to keep using Boost. This is what they should have done.
But, they didn’t. And then offered a tight window, and that’s why we’re here.
They would have gone straight to scraping if they couldn’t reach a deal. Sam Altman is on the board of reddit. He knows which way the wind blows there.
Did that fucknugget ruining Twitter cause EVERYONE to have the same hair brained idea?
There’s Matrix/Element and now Revolt
