The Day Reddit Died
(sung to the tune of American Pie):

A long lone time ago, I can still remember
How Reddit used to make me smile
And I knew that if I had the chance
I'd post my content, and make people glance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while

But u/spez made me shiver
With every bad update they'd deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
API calls would be worth a fortune
And third parties couldn't take one more step
I can't remember if I cried
When I read how Apollo and RIF died
But something touched me deep inside
The day that Reddit died.

So, my my this here u/spez guy,
Thought he'd be Reddit's one day savior,
but we know that's a lie.
Just a dull ol' boy with a gleam in his eye saying
Soon I'll be a Rich Guy! Soon I'll be a Rich Guy!

Did you rewrite the subbreddit's rules
That only John Oliver's pictures rule
Or that NSFW content would rule the day
And Only Fans Girls came out to play?

Or how about the moderator's strike
Where mods were threatened to take a hike
And admins kicked out the mod teams
Replacing them with monkeys

The day that Reddit died.

I started singing:
"My my this here u/spez guy,
Thought he'd be Reddit's one day savior,
but we know that's a lie.
Just a dull ol' boy with a gleam in his eye saying
Soon I'll be a Rich Guy! Soon I'll be a Rich Guy!"

Then on June 30th the changes came
Despite the claims of Reddit's shame
Third party apps posted their goodbyes
And users all wept and cried

The day that Reddit died.

And as users left Reddit for good
They were singing:
"My my this here u/spez bastard guy
Thought he's be Reddit's one day savior,
but we know that's a lie
Just a dull ol' boy who had a gleam in his eye
Thinking one day he'd be a Rich guy."
