We might be in the minority of overall users, but I bet we're overly represented in terms of moderation, comment submission and post submission, and Reddit inherently needs power users like that.

Yes, but it's just another way to sanitize Reddit even more. What made Reddit so successful in the first place is close to gone anyway. Take away the enthusiasts and power users and it's just lurkers, karma farmers and ad accounts left.

Not really. I can't endure either the site or official app. YouTube will get more watch time is all.

I wouldn't be so sure. Social networks seem to follow a pattern where they sell out, turn shittv, and gradually die. It's sad to see it happening, now, to Reddit.

I am using the officiall app. But I totally agree that this is a disgusting and respectless action against those that can't (or even simply don't want to) use the official apps. Its a shame that they pull this off.

That includes probably most of the mods too, you know who make it run and actually good.

So reddit knows that too,i hope

Who really is replacing those who leave? Reddit killed one by one anything that makes it a destination. Remember when they killed ask me anything? Yeah....

The only use reddit has for the reg user is to do Google searches with "site:reddit.com" to cut through spam bots and ads
