Either way, it has been interesting to see them all seemingly competing for 'worst decision'. - +--- Reddit shut off most of the clients that other people did *for* them, making all that effort and work rather pointless, and now [blind Reddiors can't moderate r/blind](https://www.reddit.com/r/Blind/comments/14nzwkm/) despite assurances that accessibility apps wouldn't be affected and the accessibility of the official app would be improved. Twitter, not to be one-upped, has now disabled the ability to view anything while not logged in, and paywalled actually being able to use the site. Ironically, even [the announcement](https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1675187969420828672) isn't viewable. 600 tweets a day is, well, pratically nothing? On the Fediverse, our friends who actually post daily (sometimes to stream of consciousness levels) and have conversations average about 45-60 posts a day. We aren't particularly active anywhere and still manage to hit an average of 9. |
