I am still on a blackout. And I canceled my paid Reddit account.

You can pay for Reddit?

Yes, you can, mainly for going ad-free. And if Reddit had simply given every subscriber a private API key for their account and let the 3rd party apps use user-supplied API keys, Reddit would have probably actually made more money without getting any serious API-related blowback.

Haven't opened reddit since Monday.

I keep opening it but only to re-delete my posts. Gotta work eventually, right?
