EthTrader should join the hundreds of other subreddits in a 48 hour blackout to protest reddit's unjust API changes

Voting ended over 2 years agoSucceeded

As you may have heard reddit is soon going to introduce new price changes to their API that will be damaging to the whole reddit community. https://techcrunch.com/2023/06/05/multiple-subreddits-and-moderators-are-now-protesting-reddits-api-changes/

As a consequence of their changes, all third party reddit clients like Apollo, Bacon Reader and RedditIsFun will likely shut down.

As a further consequence, bots that subreddits including ours use to fight spam, run tip bots, etc will all incur a tax that we frankly may not be able to reasonably afford to keep operating.

These changes would be damaging to all of us, in all subreddits, and especially harmful to crypto subreddits like ours where spam is already incredibly hard to fight.

I am proposing that r/EthTrader join all these subreddits in a blackout from June 12 to June 14 in protest of these API changes reddit is planning on making. https://old.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/1401qw5/incomplete_and_growing_list_of_participating/
