What did you do in Kansas City while r/Kansascity was dark?
In support of third party apps such as the BaconReader app which is developed in Kansas City, /r/kansascity is going private in protest on reddit's announced changes to their policies regarding reddit API and these third party apps. You can find out more here. Source: 10 months ago
r/Canada will be going dark for 48 hours beginning June 12 at midnight ET to protest the proposed API changes | r/Canada s'éteindra pendant 48 heures à compter du 12 juin à minuit HE pour protester contre les modifications proposées de l'API
On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill many useful third party apps on Reddit, from Apollo to Reddit is Fun to Narwhal to BaconReader. Source: 11 months ago

Can we please not post Platchat spoilers? Just add the spoiler tag when posting power rankings.
Image previews by default is a new reddit thing. Most people that have been around since before the redesign use https://old.reddit.com with RES (or use classic-style mobile apps like BaconReader) and think new reddit is worse than pre-nerf Brig. No clue what the percentage of new vs old users is at this point, or if new reddit lets you disable previews by default, which it might. Source: almost 2 years ago
Another change i really dont like (yet). My head crashes as soon i see it. What was wrong with how it was? Cant we just choose the interface.
I just use BaconReader on my phone. :) Not too fond of Reddit's interface-changes, so I also use the old interface on desktop. Source: over 2 years ago
