Yup. They got so desperate for money they first screwed developers with the API change and now they’re going to push this more and more. My expectation is they’re going to slowly move toward forcing usage of the official app or absolutely nothing else.
Spaz is desperate for ad money. I’m only in a few subs that have no Lemmy equivalent yet, but otherwise I’ve ditched reddit like the steaming pile of shit that it’s become.
Google just paid them many millions of dollars to ensure that won't happen.
