    Is it justified to bump up the api pricing?

    I think its fair to bump up the prices, especially with the background of AI-Training and Reddits large, free data collection. Even if 3-rd party apps will shut down. But the communication and organization was like beyond bad.

    What will be the outcome?

    Most lurkers, possibly 99% of users will stay. But the more editors and moderators exit from Reddit, the lower in value the posts get. I think the editors and moderators got pissed off the most. Only time will tell.

    Did it have an inpact on you?

    Yes, my last centralized social media was deleted and I moved on to the decentralized and/or federated universe.
