Reddit is going to sunset its current coins and awards systems, meaning you won’t be able to buy Reddit Gold for posts you like. However, it is working on a new system for awards.

Reddit has also started to rate limit websites like teddit.net , libreddit* thus rendering then useless

    To be fair they're attempting to rehost reddit.net's content, right?

    Yeah, I'd limit them too.

    Not saying everything reddit is doing is great, but at least that one makes sense.

    If you disagree with reddit, the best thing to do is cut the cord, not to continue using them in other formats. The only reason to use reddit is to tell people about alternatives.

    Yeah I’m in the same bucket. Once libreddit dies, I’m off Reddit for good. I still like to browse some of the communities that aren’t fully established on Lemmy yet there and libreddit is he only thing that makes it palatable. I can’t stand reddit deciding to only show you the first comment in a chain of 30 and asking you to log in to see the rest.
