While we're happy to engage in this conversation once more, we've had multiple good-faith meetings with Reddit admins, as represented by u/itsthejoker, and Reddit continued with the announcement anyway. These are not "use cases we haven’t accounted for." These are use-cases that you knew about weeks ago, and decided not to account for. Making changes that would prevent Apollo and other third-party apps from functioning, *before* you make changes to fix the accessibility problems with the official apps and website, will mean that the r/blind community will be unable to continue on Reddit, and blind and visually impaired mods will be unable to operate across all of Reddit. It seems critical to us that you hold off of these changes, until blind users and mods of Reddit have a way forward.
