Just so you know, honoring one commitment doesn't mean we've forgotten about the many that have been broken.

But the real question to me is, if you are able to move at this speed, why did it take several years for this to even get brought up?

There was a huge selection of third party mod tools you could use, so they never had to.

Because they could rely on third party apps

Because they didn’t care.

Seems to me they’re whipping their employees to work way too hard so they can close the “accessibility loophole” in their API pricing so they can remove it altogether. And all of this seems centered around preparing for an IPO. So, greed.
