I think there’s a lot of potential for grouping up and displaying posts in different ways.
I think there’ll be a lot more, since so far people have only left for ideological reasons. Once they actually lose access to reddit via third party apps, it’ll be a lot easier to justify moving on.
And there are probably people still hoping that reddit will reverse their decision or somehow fix things before the changes take effect.
Can’t say I’m surprised.
It probably wouldn’t be too hard to write a script that does that by scraping reddit for links. That way it’d work even after the API changes take effect.
I’m not sure what you mean here. the_donald was shut down in June 2020 according to wikipedia. And the insurrection happened 6 months later, Jan 2021.
