I use an Dell docking station with my laptop. Any webpage with Spotify embed turns off my external displays because somewhere along the line the video signal loses the DRM certification. It's infuriating.
Yes I know, it was just pretty funny that the first comment I saw was about a paid 3rd party app not paying for access, when this was one of reddit's "official" reasons for the changes.
General submissions have tons of comments, so there are actual discussions going on, motivating users to check back often. Also (at least for now), the discussions have less noise.
Content-based subreddits (like instantkarma, holdmyfries) where there is minimal discussion can be easily replicated with a bot, until organic submissions reach a critical mass.
That leaves community based subreddits, but when Reddit aggravates the community leaders they can easily move (like piracy did).
Half the time a site just refuses to work.
I click on a link to a tweet, and it's either "Ooops..." or a sign in window. This can't be good for a social media site, that mainly gets its value from the number of users.
Disregarding laws in Europe regarding the firings is also a very shortsigthed decision that will bite them in the ass.
This lawsuit is specifically about Steam threatening to delist games if the creator tries to sell them at lower price than is listed on Steam.
