MODERATORS
This story is big enough that NPR cares to talk about it?
What was stopping them from bringing the tools first, let mods migrate and be comfortable with them and then apply the new pricing on the API? Greed and ego are having a field day it seems.
Considering that they didn't introduce the CSS tools they promised for New Reddit way back when, consider me skeptical.
It said the changes will be rolled out starting Saturday.
According to Google, it looks as if Reddit did roll out mod tools to help replace the 3rd party apps they've been using. I wonder how effective they are so far.
If they come, it’s only because they weee bullied into it and they will be half baked. They had years to add this on their own and they didn’t. So it will be rushed out because of the protest and even with all those thousands of paid devs will still somehow (spez) manage to be inferior to the third party tools they took away.
I don't care now.
