View submission: [Announcement] Reddit's upcoming API changes and impact on toolbox.
God forbid, future changes DO directly impact toolbox functionality, they will have their native built tools be anything close to comparable.
Well, we are already at that point considering new functionality. But it is also besides the point, you know what a struggle it is for example to find people willing to mod in /r/history and I am willing to bet that for /r/AskHistorians the trend for both finding new mods and flaired users also hasn't been favorable.
I am saying nothing new, but while reddits communication is full with words like "community" it is very clear they have shifted over the past years to a low effort high consumption model of media where communities are not the goal but simply a marketing means.
I am not even sure where I am going with this other than what I already said in the /r/modnews announcement. I am tired, tired with reddit and what it has become.

God, now you're giving me nightmares that 'we're ending old reddit support' is coming next...
