Around 36 hours until our Reddit apps stop working.
Exactly what is supposed to happen with reddit?
Nothing to Reddit itself. But on the 1st (yank time, so probably late on the 1st or potentially early on the 2nd) that's when the API changes everyone's here because of are implemented. All the apps don't want to pay will cease working
Right thanks
It's going to be interesting - the protests put a dent into their operations, and while the mark is still visible it's been buffed out to the best of Reddit's ability. But losing the preferred apps... it's going to be telling whether the usual pessimistic Reddit rhetoric was smoke or if there was fire beneath it this whole time.
