This is one thing that I’m still scratching my head about. Like, Reddit said no once, and everyone just shrugged and moved on.

I’d understand if most just threw in the towel completely and never wanted to work with Reddit at all, but it seems most would prefer continue to work on their apps.

And since most apps were free or even FOSS, why not say screw that, and make a (perhaps) last update with a field for the user to enter their own key?

Of course only a few users would take advantage of that, but then there’s even less reason for Reddit to actually care about that, if they could even detect it at all.

I know some forks may pop up, I’m just wondering about the devs themselves.

    But if you wouldn’t continue with Reddit otherwise, then you don’t need to care about a ban anyway.

    I’m just wondering if I’m the only one with that thought process. You know what I mean.
