What if they only introduced the API changes to get rid of the aware users and make it easier to monetize the rest...?

Insane that on iOS you can't just change the icons to whatever you want

That is genuinely funny.

While we all hate reddit, them changing the app icon to make a reference to what used to be a fun event shouldn't be our main point.

This won't work on android because changing icon is trivial lmao

Anyone brain dead enough to continue using that awful app is probably brain dead enough to pay for an icon.

Ahh the Free To Play playbook. Have to pay to not be frustrated. Ironically what Apple ushered in

Wow. That’s just crazy.

They might get a few gullible suckers to pay up.

I would never pay for changing an ugly icon.

This was honestly the straw that broke the camel's back for me. I used to check reddit every now and then, but after this I just couldn't justify it to myself to use it. I used to post a lot of stuff, and I modded a relatively small community, but it just feels wrong to use it.

My man, your camel has a strong back

Joke's on them I like retro logos

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

haha jokes on them, I never used the app, I just used the web view which also blows.
