So R mods tried to protest API price hikes that would effectively kill
all third-part apps. I say "tried" because they failed quite badly. I
mean they said they'd make thousands of subboards private... for 48
hours. The R CEO just called their bluff and then threatened to remove
their mod power, and the miscreants just gave up. Some of them changed
the "theme" of the boards, like NoFans (NSFW) becoming a fanless
cooler board.

The surrender isn't very surprising. R mods have nothing better to do
with their free time than police online boards and smite anyone who
dares question them. I didn't use R for more than anything but NSFW
content aggregation. I was always using Gopherddit or Libredd.it. I've
found that leaving comments often has the illusion of conversation,
but it's not really like that and it's 95% arguing and pointlessness,
especially on censorship-heavy platforms like R and YT. That's also
why I recently turned off comments in my Invidious settings. Hopefully
I can quit spending so much time reading and caring about what idiots
say online, but I'm another one of those idiots.

I believe I said how things suck in my last post. Psychopathic
capitalism and this stupid inflation spike are making things worse.
But there's hope. And I'm going to hold onto it and try to do more
things outside.
