I genuinely hope and think Reddit is smart enough to not think "well if we harm third party apps and their minuscule market share, all of them will join the official app". If you go to a sandwich shop intent on getting sourdough bread and they announce they got rid of it and the only option is pumpernickel, a great deal of folks just aren't fans of pumpernickel and are just going to… not visit your store anymore.

There's a great TED Talk about this in the context of spaghetti sauce by Malcom Gladwell.

Wait, you guys are getting acquired? https://i.imgur.com/OTLFQPH.png

WHERE IS THIS MONEY

First off that means a lot!

Secondly, if you agree with the comments I and others made in that thread and would like to boost them/show your agreeance, feel free to upvote them or ask questions/comment, that always does a good job of being able to gauge how people feel. Reddit is understandably touchy about brigading though, so I want to be clear that this genuinely isn't an invitation to brigade, only upvote/comment if you find legitimate value in the comments and not as something you were asked to do. (I'm truly not being tongue in cheek/wink-wink here, don't do anything to get anyone in trouble!)

The moon?? How much?

That's a few requests but I trust this plot of land is at least a decent size.

• In terms of being useless, while slightly hyperbolic I assume you're referring to the inability to edit them? That's coming.
• Mini iPhones, a fix is coming for that. I don't have a mini iPhone to test on and the simulator doesn't work properly with Pixel Pals, so I'm looking to borrow a friend's mini or grab a used one.
• iPad app, hoping by the end of the year, I actually had got a good amount of work done on it today alone before I got distracted by this announcement haha

Fight like hell!

I saw that and that made me feel quite hopeful. The example of a bot as a Reddit app rather than, well a Reddit app, was somewhat confusing, however.

Best wishes to you as well!

I might take you up on that if I can't find anything. I'm sure it's something to do with the non-standard display scaling on the mini phones. And I appreciate the kindness :)

Totally! I'm nothing if not reasonable, a big part of Ultra being a subscription has been in the event Reddit seeks to charge so Apollo would have an avenue to make that possible.

Oh thank you that's good to know

I don't think much was ultimately answered there unfortunately.

Thanks my friend

I am hopeful that they will not make the same mistakes as Twitter.
