Do you agree or disagree with the below comment?
Most people do not care. Both major concerns have been addressed by Reddit which is that accessibility apps and mod tools won't be affected by their API changes.
If you want to protest, simply don't visit reddit. It's not appropriate to force your view on the vast majority of Reddit users who don't care.

@BlueForestDev

What they have said is that NON-COMMERCIAL accessibility apps are exempt. Screw the dev who makes a good accessibility focused product that plugs the gaping holes in Reddit's offerings and actually wants a little something for their time.

I am not aware of any such statement regarding mod tools other than promising to improve their own (which they have been promising for over a decade).

@giddy Yep, but sentiment on reddit seems to be changing a little. People are taking this as a concession and want to access their memes. Turns out the current users of reddit don't really care how they get their meme fix.

@BlueForestDev but the contributors (the ones who moderate subs and post content) are more likely to bail out

@giddy I dont think so. In my opinion mods are delusional about their level of contribution and most are sticking around you can see it yourself. The ones leaving thus far are those discontent with the content on reddit.
I also see subs open polls now for the blackout stuff and most votes are in favor of stopping the blackout and calling out mods for 'virtue signalling' and calling them tyrants.
Just to give some perspective.
