    Hmmm. Maybe it’s intentional. A purge. Flush out the old crowd with their adblockers and their nonsense ideas about “free speech,” and whoever stays – out of ignorance or compliance – is left with the ad-ridden hellscape that is the new interface and the official app.

      I’d certainly agree that this is at least Huffman’s internal thoughts about the whole thing at this point. Stabilize their large, more easily monetizable userbase, and get to the IPO asap. The only ones who “suffer” here are the users who give a shit, and the only remedy is to move on from reddit and create that content that matters, elsewhere.
