Subreddits and third-party apps are going dark in response to Reddit’s proposed API changes. It’s the latest front in a labor battle between algorithms and the humans who feed them.

    Reddit, for all of its flaws, is still one of the last true communities on the internet.

          Not gonna lie, where I was mildly satisfied/entertained with Reddit, having squabble, kbin and tildes, sorting on all on new across all the sites is still kinda not enough interesting content, for me personally. I’m sure day by day it will get better. it’s already more interactive and feels more welcome across the board to add to the conversation, just don’t get those big full comment sections that take time to work through and keep my brain from being aware of my surroundings.
