😲 NO! Not the subreddits dedicated to, the 2002 film staring Vin Diesel, XXX!

Family
At least he still has FAMILY.
I was 2 fast 2 furious with my emotions.
I see what you did there...
Garr!!! Not only furious! I’m quickly getting angry! I’m Fast and Furious!
What a great film. The couch scene was chef's kiss.
That's really cute
Part of the updates is nuking specifically nsfw content for third parties?
That’s the first step. Reddit intends to cleanse the site of NSFW content so they can easily sell it to investors
This is a gift to the intelligence agencies.
Automod functions won't work anymore?
So not sure if anyone else replied to your comment about this yet, but after everything backfired reddit announced that mod tools and third party bots would all be exempt from API, it's just the apps that they are going to scam into closure.
Not only those, but also integration platforms that connect to Reddit such as IFTT. My workflows will no longer function. This is very wide ranging.
It didn't even occur to me that a lot of bots are community made and obviously using the API. That's a lot of automated processes down the drain.
I like Reddit, but this will probably be the end of my time here. If I wanted to be spammed by bots and have shoddy moderation that allowed extremist content, I’d just go to twitter.
I'm not trying to disagree with you, but please help me connect the dots between API costs increasing and spammers and shill attacks increasing.
My understanding is that the folks running these things are opportunists. They won't pay the fees, just like Apollo won't. I'd think that after the new pricing increase we'd see a massive drop in all posting activity.
Both legit and spam.
I do agree that once this is implemented, the only people posting here will have an agenda to push, and be willing to pay the fee to make the message heard.

I understand that.
I guess I am curious about the actual affect on the amount of spam that will be generated as well as how it will be moderated.
Won't those spammers and bot accounts also be subject to the increase in costs? And if so, won't that drive their numbers down simply due to attrition?
(Edited clean because fuck you)

what, there are xxx suberdits and I get to know about them right when they are closing!?
The subreddits are not closing, just any remaining 3rd party apps access to them would be.
If you can't afford a subscription and you're not quitting reddit over this, you'll just move over to the normal app like everyone else and they will still be there.
Man, the normal app is so trash though.
Yeah, I just checked it out. Sponsored post every 3 to 7 posts.
I dont think 3rd party apps are all going away though. If Reddit Premium costs $5 there's absolutely a market for a 3rd party subscription that's $5 to $10.
Maybe you're one of the lucky ones who can afford it, then just use the offical app just for sexually explicit content.
Main issue is those apps won’t have access to NSFW content, which includes a very broad range of categories, even spoilers.
I think, ultimately, though, it will somewhat go the route of Twitter. A drop in users for a while, with replacement of any mods that don’t buy into the new Reddit, and an eventual shift in the primary content and users that are on it.
I probably won’t ever use Reddit after June 30th…wild to consider.
According to reddit, it will just include sexually explicit content and not all NSFW posts.
If they implement it correctly is another question.
Oh okay I see. Then again, according to Reddit, the price increase wasn’t going to happen haha :(
Price increase was always going to happen (as of a month ago atleast), it was just going to be "reasonable". It clearly was not reasonable.
And here's the quote from the phone calls Apollo had,
Hopefully we get some more info on it tomorow.
Honestly though….that last bit is fairly good for privacy. Loads of bots are storing people’s spicy bits and reposting to third parties on the internet forever.
Actually probably wouldn’t matter since they’re web crawling probably
