I was on Reddit for 7 years and until this Huffman guy pulled this shit, I hadn’t even thought about Reddit as a money making entity really. He made it clear they’re after money, but they don’t actually create anything. We create the content, we moderate it, and Huffman wants to make money off our free work. I had never ever thought of it that way until this API thing and that’s a huge fuck up on Huffman’s part, he made a regular user like me stop to think and realize that Reddit was all along, just out to get my content and data so they can make money off it.
