Lol I'm posting on both here and Reddit. I'm kind of enjoying the drama even though I don't have a strong opinion about the API controversy personally.

That’s so funny. I deleted my app - what’s happening on the other side?

It was business as usual on some of the subreddits I post on a lot (e.g., /r/credibledefense, /r/historywhatif). Those never shut down. But other ones where they re-opened, there's a bit of debate going on about whether or not to stay shut down or not. At least on the subs I visit and post on, most people are in favor of keeping the subs open.

r/dankmemes commentators are all whining about the mods powertripping and how the protest is only hurting users and what right they have to destroy the experience for everyone 😂
