Is it justified to bump up the api pricing?

I think its fair to bump up the prices, especially with the background of AI-Training and Reddits large, free data collection. Even if 3-rd party apps will shut down. But the communication and organization was like beyond bad.

What will be the outcome?

Most lurkers, possibly 99% of users will stay. But the more editors and moderators exit from Reddit, the lower in value the posts get. I think the editors and moderators got pissed off the most. Only time will tell.

Did it have an inpact on you?

Yes, my last centralized social media was deleted and I moved on to the decentralized and/or federated universe.

I think reddit could have managed it way better, than they did right now.

Interesting, have fun on your journey.
