If mods are the aristocracy, isn’t he just saying he’s a king??
Emperor with no clothes?
Lmao imagine thinking of the volunteer labour who make your site successful as the enemy
You say volunteers, he thinks slaves
Any chance of a non-paywalled option? Or an option that doesn't want me to continue reading in their official app? (How's that for irony?)
I don't have a suggestion for another option, but there's nothing new here. The article just quotes the Verge and NPR interviews.
Maybe someone could make one that relies on Web scraping instead of API usage, something similar to NewPipe for YouTube but for Reddit. Might be a while though, web scraping isn't as intuitive as API and not offense but Devs are still a bit spoiled from having unrestricted API usage since forever.
Also before other people try and tell me I am aware that you can use Personal API keys from your account, however they might crack down on that in the future and either prevent people from using it or impose more strict limitations on its usage (if everyone just gets a personal API key instead of paying they're probably not going to take it laying down).
Huffman acknowledged to the Verge that he took a “beating” in an Ask Me Anything post he did on the platform last week in which he defended Reddit’s plans. But he maintains it is not Reddit’s responsibility to help keep third-party apps alive.
He answered what 13-14 questions with mostly canned responses? Huffman took such a beating with the softball questions he did answer.
Inaccurate analogy, since the mods don't own the subreddit, a more accurate one would be spez is a landlord, the mods are tenant farmers, and the users and contents are the crops.
Can someone summarize it?

That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
