The last major holdouts in the protest against Reddit’s API pricing relented, abandoning the so-called “John Oliver rules” which only allowed posts featuring the TV host. It's the official end of the battle. The Reddit protest is over, and Reddit won.

The last major holdouts in the protest against Reddit’s API pricing relented, abandoning the so-called “John Oliver rules” which only allowed posts featuring the TV host. The article describes it as “the official end of the battle,” which seems an overstatement to me, but it’s the certainly the end of the initial phase.

Did Reddit win? Time will tell!

    I often had to scroll quite a bit to get past the obnoxious US politics posts

    And the posts that had nothing to do with the US or politics would usually descend into a US centric shit fight anyway.

    Any post involving firearms anywhere in the world…flooded with US 2A nut jobs.

    etc
