That would require logging into Reddit. I have a feeling this is to boost clicks for a really poor months performance so they can say “look 3rd party apps being dead is fine!”
Ding ding ding
I mean, its pretty transparent attempt by spez to boost.interactions with the site, but that won't stop people from doing exactly what spez wants them to do.
True but surely a full page spez hate graphic wouldn't do well for them.
Lol. It wouldn't make a dent.
Truth is the people shouting "fuck Spez" is a small minority.
Everyone knows about Reddit. Not very many are that invested to care.
Looks pretty fuck spez to me pal.
this is their cnn trump town hall. ten bucks says traffic spikes for /r/place and then drops below pre-/r/place levels.
Tbf, I don’t recall r/Place ever working on 3rd-party clients.
