Reddark

This has been an incredible week of protests at Reddit. The decision by Reddit to charge for their API in a way that made the wildly popular Apollo app have to close it doors was greeted to massive protests inside the Reddit community. Many moderators turned their subreddits off by making them private. At one point causing 100's of millions of subreddit users to not be able to contribute to the companies they are part of. This site is tracking these Reddit protests. More recently Reddit has raised the stakes and made many of these subreddits public again against the wishes of the original maintainers. This fight isn't over, but it is a stark reminder that when you build on another companies platform you are never really in control. ✊
