    Nah, I don’t really think so. People who use Reddit don’t use RSS or the API.

    I kinda like that they’re becoming more openly hostile. It’s fun to watch.

      I still can’t believe they just came out and said that new users switching to Old Reddit is a problem that needs to be fixed, by removing their access to Old Reddit. You’d think they’d try to word it in a more deceptive manner at least. Or just keep it to themselves.

        Another great example : )

        Some ppl might say that a company whose product is user generated content would try to be more like honey and less like vinegar.
