@christianselig I don’t understand how these companies see that pricing as sustainable for third party clients. No matter how you priced it - even to break even - seems it puts it out of reach for most users. If the goal is to push people to their official clients..ok..sure, but considering the official client is horrendous this seems more likely to push people off of Reddit. Another social media service for the dustbin :( 2 comments
@ChrisAnemone @christianselig Honestly, if I were forced to use the web or official mobile clients - I’ll just go somewhere else. I spend more time on Reddit than I should, so forced “rehab” will be a good thing. I know that, like Twitter’s bad decisions, it won’t kill the platform - they’re both too big and too established. But there is no way this doesn’t shrink the active user base by a noticeable amount. |

@nonproductive @christianselig that’s the point. They’re prepping for ipo so they’re intentionally destroying third party clients. They can’t data mine through third party clients like they can through their own; not to mention their own shows a crap load of ads too.
