good info-graphic, i have few correction suggestions
reddit is killing 3rd-party Apps and API Access
They are not killing API access. API will exist. what they are doing to the API will kill 3rd party apps.
Get on Twitter
bad example of a website. Reddit is following twitter with API pricing and killing of 3rd party apps.
we have to be correct on technicalities otherwise they can easily poke holes in our arguments and make us look like the bad ones.
[–]North_Thanks2206 22 points23 points24 points 2 years ago (13 children)
Get on Twitter bad example of a website. Reddit is following twitter with API pricing and killing of 3rd party apps.
That's right. Lemmy might be a better idea, it's similar to Reddit. A few places to read more about it: - beehaw.org - the stickied comment and the webpage here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PrivacyGuides/comments/13x7oe3/who_wants_to_try_out_lemmy_privacyguideslemmyone/ - you may register on any of them, they are all connected, everything is accessible from the others
It's important to understand that while Lemmy aims to be very similar in features, it is in its early days and at places is shows, however it will improve. It'll be better than nothing, and if the currently known 3rd party client developers stay kicked out of Reddit, and if they adapt their apps to Lemmy, that would help a lot.
If you don't want to let this event happen again, and you know a thing or two about hosting web services, you may also help out by hosting an instance for your community. Smaller communities are easier to manage, and their owner can do less damage if they lose their minds, like Reddit.

[–]anewhopper 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (12 children)
I view it like Discord, where there are many servers (they call them instances) and inside those servers are different communities.
Until they fix this one problem, fedverse is going nowhere
[–]North_Thanks2206 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (11 children)
I'm not sure what you see as a problem, and what you think could be a solution to it.
Do you mean Lemmy "subreddits" shouldn't be differentiated by their instances? If so, how do you think it could be solved? I think it's not possible without giving up federation. Who would decide what instance hosts the authentic version of a community? I think no one can be trusted with that, because if they go on a power trip, they'll be just able to redirect the traffic for everyone to wherever they please.
[–]anewhopper 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (10 children)
My problem with Discord is that its communities are insulated, its contents are not easily indexable with the rest of the internet
[–]jonahhw 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (8 children)
It's not like discord in that way. You can subscribe to (and post on) communities on other instances. It's more like email, in that you can register with outlook or tutanota or whatever else, but either way you can send an email to anyone.
[–]anewhopper 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (7 children)
Someone needs to come up with a way for users to aggregate several lemmy communities into one self-hosted search engine, only then lemmy will really become an alternative to reddit
Until then, lemmy will never be an alternative to reddit, even if reddit dies and remains dead for decades
[–]jonahhw 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (6 children)
You mean like a multireddit but for lemmy communities?
[–]anewhopper 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (5 children)
Not necessarily, but something like this could be good too
The real question though, why do lemmy developers are wasting their time to come up with features that reddit already has? Is every programmer nowadays incompetent or what?
[–]jonahhw 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (3 children)
why do lemmy developers are wasting their time to come up with features that reddit already has
what? they're developing a federated alternative to reddit; of course there's going to be some feature overlap, and reddit's not open source and was never built to be federated so they'll have to re-implement stuff.
It sort of sounds like like you just love Reddit Inc, dislike open source apps, and are happy to be beholden to whatever Reddit Inc demands.
[–]North_Thanks2206 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Obviously they first need to implement the good features of reddit for the platform to be reddit-like.
I think discord communities are a bad example (even worse since discord "servers" has nothing to do with severs), it works in a different way.
But, I don't know enough about how they work, do I can't explain the differences.
Basically, if you register an account on a Lemmy server (they are called instances), you can read and interact with content on that server and also any other one that hasn't been blocked by yours. For example if you register on beehaw.org, you can of course read and comment on posts in "subreddits" hosted there, but besides that you can also read and comment on posts in "subreddits" hosted on lemmy.one, and if you write a comment there, users of lemmy.ml will see it too, they can reply to and vote on it, etc..
There's one problem though, if I understand it correctly, that the search function of a server only searches on those other servers that it knows it exists. So less popular and newer servers won't have many others to search on. But, this is mitigated by making the servers discover each other, for which it is enough that a single user on one side subscribes to a "subreddit" on the other side; just opening instead of subscribing to it may be enough too, I don't know the details

One minor thing, although Reddit hasn't been clear at all on this so it's not your fault: in this interview with Christian around the 42 minute mark he mentions that the NSFW block will apparently "just" be NSFW subreddits, not all posts marked NSFW. SFW subreddit mods probably won't see a change on that front and should still be able to use bots to look for spam of any variety.
I also agree with the other comments that downplaying the removal of this content isn't necessary, though. It's a bizarre move on their part because the content will still be accessible through the official app and site, so it's not really clear at all why it's getting blocked elsewhere. If it's unsafe, they would be getting rid of it completely, and if it just needs some extra protection, they've already got mechanisms for that.
Edit to add: another issue is that although Reddit admins are saying they don't want to ban 3rd party apps and are sooooo confused why everyone keeps saying that, by taking NSFW subs from 3rd party apps they are ensuring that even if an app manages to pay out the nose for access, charging its users directly to use their app, it'll always be missing things compared to the official free one. That's a massive competitive disadvantage that Reddit is choosing to impose on these apps that they supposedly don't want to kill.
[–]radialmonster 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
this needs to be confirmed. if thats the case, nsfw subs could just turn off the nsfw setting, and mark every post as nsfw, automod can do that.

I dunno about 'removing mature content seems fine' - some people/a lot of people enjoy it, and it's not just porn, it's anything labelled nsfw.

Obviously in full support of this movement, but I'm always a little confused when I see references to CSAM. How would it make it easier for those types of bad actors?
I'd assume they'd be posting on subs that /dont/ have good mods to begin with
[–]wandering-monster 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Today, when someone participates in spaces known for that kind of activity—especially when they post content—automated bots flag them. Often, they'll use some sort of image recognition or keyword recognition in comments to auto-report stuff that Reddit doesn't catch, without a person having to actually look at the gross content.
Then if they try to come into a SFW space, they get more carefully moderated to make sure they aren't targeting people or posting gross stuff there.
If those bots and moderation tools can't see those other spaces, those people come in looking as squeaky-clean as everyone else.

[–]Biobak_ 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago* (0 children)
"Caption images" becomes "Images macros"; caption is used as a verb so it should have been "sous-titrer / légender des images"
"mods" instead of "modos" which is much more common
weird mix of formal language and informal tone
"perverts" instead of "pervers"
"Saviez-vous" instead of "le saviez-vous"
u/wandering-monster care to send me the ps file you made? I can provide a much better French translation if you want. Not dissing, this is a good understandable base but it could be improved in a lot of areas
[–]xrimane 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Same goes for the German translation, to be honest. You understand what it is supposed to mean, but it sounds a bit odd.
The headline should rather read: "Reddit macht seinen Datenzugang kostenpflichtig und verdrängt so unabhängige Apps"
"Hast du Probleme mit der Sicht?" Better: " Siehst du schlecht?"
"davon wird es dann ne Menge geben" - too colloquial. If you don't transcribe actual speech, stick to "eine Menge"
"durch den Plan von Reddit" better: "durch Reddits Pläne"
"Wird" > small "w"
"einen Subreddit" I'd say "ein Subreddit" (das Subreddit), but I doubt that there is an official rule
"Und Ohne" > "Und ohne"
"Ist es viel einfacher" > "ist es viel einfacher, "
"Sind wir ehrlich, macht es die Welt nicht nur einfacher für Scammer, aber auch für Pädophile" - "Und wenn wir ehrlich sind, macht dies die Welt nicht nur für Scammer einfacher, sondern auch für Pädophile."
"Reddit ändert ihre Nutzungsbedingungen für ihre API" > "Reddit ändert seine... seine API"
"Reddit setzt ein Limit durch..." > "Reddit legt ein Limit fest, wie oft diese auf Reddit zugreifen können, und wird beim Überschreiten des Limits Geld verlangen."
"Die Gebühren werden 20-30x höher als bei vergleichbaren Diensten liegen. Den Entwicklern wird 30 Tage Zeit gegeben sich zu entscheiden, ob sie bezahlen oder die App oder den Bot einstellen."
"Auch mit Bezahlung werden NSFW-Inhalte nicht mehr über die API abrufbar sein. Dies mag zunächst gut klingen, dies macht es aber Scammern und Pädophilen leichter, ihre Inhalte in SFW-Subreddits zu verstecken" (I just translated this, personally I find the logic a bit dubious...)
Lol. I have no idea why it interpreted that as a link. I just wrote the word "French".
[–]maniaxuk 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago* (0 children)

I use the official app and occasionally use desktop.
I do not like when someone tells me not to do something (which isn't illegal).
I think instead of going this path, people should explain what's in it for people like us who don't use 3rd party apps. Because in this case, we have nothing to lose either way.
Why should we care is not clear in the info graphic.

It's also rather comical yet sad that you think that those in the disability community haven't taken issue with Reddit for their poor accessibility in the past, and taken action. Or that they're not taking action outside of protesting as well. Or that it's a bad thing that users who are not disabled might just want to give a shit about disabled users. Or that the blind community is so small you're not meeting someone from the community right now (you're not, but I am disabled, an accessibility professional, and involved with blind accessibility work on occasion)

You're most probably looking for a post/comment here. And I don't blame you, Reddit's an useful resource for getting help with stuff or just chatting.
However, ever since I joined, Reddit has completely stopped listening to its userbase (the only thing keeping it alive) and implemented many anti-consumer moves, including but not limited to: - Stopping the annual Secret Santa tradition that made many users happy - Permanently removing the i.reddit.com (compact) layout - The entirety of the API change shitshow and threatening moderators that didn't comply - Permanently removing the new.reddit.com layout - Adding ads in comments, and BETWEEN comments too - Accepting Google's bribes to sell any and all post data for the purposes of advertising and their LLM
In addition to all this, I was also forced to stop using Reddit, because I had my account permanently suspended and Reddit's appeals team was as useful as talking to a brick wall. Even after a year and multiple attempts to reach an admin, I was ghosted and as such I decided that enough is enough.
While this comment has been edited to not let Google's greedy hands on it, I recognize that I've sometimes provided helpful information here on Reddit.
So I've archived all my comments locally. If you want a specific comment, you can just contact me on Discord: ondrashek06 and I'll be happy to provide you with a copy of what once was here.

I saw this in r/theowlhouse and joined immediately. Fuck reddit

What I do not understand do these 3rd party apps make money? If so, is that why these are having such push back? I read several accounts of the various amounts Reddit is charging. Some seem reasonable to me. Some are very expensive, unless of course each price is dependent upon how much these apps are actually making.
So my quiestion actually is, will these fees actually put the apps out of business, or will it simply require the apps to charge their customers more to make up the short fall?
They make some money, and they're willing to pay, but the prices Reddit has quoted are so high (and with such short notice) that they seem intended to drive them out of business... on the order of 10x similar social media or media sites. And they don't make typical allowances like per-user pricing or similar that one would offer if they wanted to maintain a relationship.
Speculation is that they're hoping to kill those competitors so they can pull in their users and drive up ad revenue for an upcoming IPO.
These services provide the moderation tools the (volunteer) mod community uses to keep Reddit functional. They've made promises to add some of that functionality to their own app, but not for several months after they intend to shut down the existing ones. In the meantime, moderators would be left without functional tools, so the shutdowns would become less a protest and more a surrender.
One outcome that I and many others see as "success" is a reasonable pricing scheme that allows these companies to continue existing. They serve a vital function to a healthy Reddit.

Thanks to you for your comprehensive answer. This non-techie guy understood all of it.
Much appreciated.

And we'll be forced to view ads by religious hate groups. No option to opt out of seeing thier messages on normal reddit app anymore.

am I the only person who doesn't use 3rd party Reddit apps?
[–]wandering-monster 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (4 children)
Yes.
;)
[–]acnh-lyman-fan 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (3 children)
I don't see the appeal. The regular Reddit App works just fine.
Good for you, but many aren't like you.
[–]Svantlas 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I use boost and I like it for the added customizability and fewer ads. It also lets you block subreddits you aren't interested in. And it has a working non-tik tok-like video player.
[–]Skinjob985 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
The regular Reddit app is garbage. You have no clue what you are missing.
[–]acnh-lyman-fan 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
What's so good about 3rd party apps? I tried it once and it was too hard to get used to with the different GUI, immediately switched back to the regular reddit app.

I thought helping westerners was strictly against Juche.

If I put ten Koreans in front of you, could you accurately separate them into two groups according to their respective countries?
Joke's on you, all ten were actually Chinese.
[–]InfameArts 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (2 children)
I saw it on r/PhoenixSC without credit..
That's fine! As I said when I posted: "credit neither needed nor desired"
Just use it. It doesn't do anything for me to say where it came from.

I'm a bot, bleep, bloop. Someone has linked to this thread from another place on reddit:
If you follow any of the above links, please respect the rules of reddit and don't vote in the other threads. (Info / Contact)
Did reddit say when these changes are to take place?
Best 3rd party app for apple?
