Keep it up Reddit! Push more people away! Lemmy devs watching all the Reddit refugees (I'm one): o.O

When the API changes were announced, for the first time I started thinking I should leave reddit. This coin thing was just kicking me while I was down. Ok, they want to get rid of awards for a new system. But you also want to remove them from past posts?? And you're not going to convert coin balances into anything?

Those are the things a company that has no regard for it's users does.

They learned from the best: Google. The number of times Google had suddenly killed some YouTube feature that the community had collectively sunk millions of hours into is infuriating. Community-made subtitles are the most recent one.
