As some subreddits continue blackouts to protest Reddit’s plans to charge high prices for its API, Reddit has informed the moderators of those subreddits that it has plans to replace resistant moderation teams to keep spaces “open and accessible to users.”
Edit, there seems to be conflicting reporting on this issue:
While the company does “respect the community’s right to protest” and pledges that it won’t force communities to reopen, Reddit also suggests there’s no need for that.

LMAO their response to the VPN ads they rolled out to every user was hilarious. Any poster got the a comment that the user should use the already existing posts about it, the thing is, each and every post was locked by the mods with the same comment, not one post was available to comment on the situation. Eventually some posts went through after a while, but these hours, man, that’s when i went Chromium, if i get fucked either way, i might as well use the objectively superior browser.

I also switched to Brave - Firefox’s memory leaks had become untenable for me. Now if I have enough Brave tabs open, the whole browser just freezes. I’m sticking with it though.
Brave has been caught with their hands in the cookie jar too much for me to use it. I tried it for a bit, but then all the articles of them doing stuff they promised not to do kept piling up. There is a reason they used the data-hoovering Chrome base.
Agreed. That sub has done a lot to convince me that leavin FF would have been a good idea. Good job /s.
