just so this doesn’t overwhelm our front page too much, i think now’s a good time to start consolidating discussions. existing threads will be kept up, but unless a big update comes let’s try to keep what’s happening in this thread instead of across 10.
developments to this point:
- Apollo for Reddit is shutting down
- Reddit is Fun will also shut down
- Reddit CEO (/u/spez) is going to hold a AMA about the API update
- Sync has announced it is shutting down
- ReddPlanet has announced it is shutting down
- Reddit creates an API exemption for noncommercial accessibility apps
The Verge is on it as usual, also–here’s their latest coverage (h/t @[email protected]):
Sync for Reddit is also shutting down on June 30th.
ReddPlanet also announced closure on June 30th.
Reddit creates API exemption for noncommercial accessibility apps (Ehhhh, grain of salt on this one. I’m getting a lot of conflicting reports.)
Relay is also out.
EDITS: fixed Sync names, added ReddPlanet. Will keep adding as I see them.
“If you do a better job than us at something we don’t care about, have fun*”
