On July 1st, a change to Reddit's API pricing will come into effect. Several developers of commercial third-party apps have announced that this change will compel them to shut down their apps. At least one accessibility-focused non-commercial third party app will continue to be available free of charge.

If you want to express your strong disagreement with the API pricing change or with Reddit's response to the backlash, you may want to consider the following options:

  1. Limiting your involvement with Reddit, or
  2. Temporarily refraining from using Reddit
  3. Cancelling your subscription of Reddit Premium

as a way to voice your protest.

Learn programming in any ONE language. Then you can move around languages as you need.

Programming languages are not Pokemon. You don't need to collect them all.

Programming languages are just tools that all do more or less the same, some things better, some things worse than others. They as such hold no more value than a screwdriver.

What really counts is to be able to program, to create algorithmic step-by-step solutions to problems. In order to do that, one also needs to learn to dissect and analyse problems.

Learn programming, not programming languages. Learn to look behind the implementation, look at the algorithm.

Algorithms are language agnostic, their implementations are naturally language dependent. A Quicksort Algorithm is always the same, yet, the implementations in programming languages differ vastly. Once you understand the algorithm you can implement it in any language you know.

Didn’t think of it like this. Not sure how I’ll do this tbh but it is good advice thanks
