I mean, Crossguard is cool but it feels like cheating.

I don’t know why they didn’t just quit instead of stopping to go to work. lol

Or we could read the reddit post that the Apollo dev posted where they got some questions answered by Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/12ram0f/had_a_few_calls_with_reddit_today_about_the

As noted, the price is not to make money, but instead to cover costs:

It’s likely similar to what a ton of other services are doing to combat things like OpenAI building massive data sets off their data. Lots of companies have been upping their API costs since ChatGPT and GPT 4.0 came out to combat OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, etc using their data to take users from their sites.

It’s not just to send everyone to Reddit Premium though, it’s also because of AI. These generative text AIs are out there just scraping data without asking, and there’s a future where no one actually goes to websites anymore, because ChatGPT or Bing or Google’s AI search just scrape the information and give it to you…

Gotta keep chasing infinite growth!

People should have a choice and Reddit absolutely knows they are going to kill third party apps with the pricing.

I believe it was called, “the shitification” of the internet? Lemme check,

Nah ya know what? Good on those two, fuck amazon

That’s hilarious and good. Fuck Amazon

Everything on the internet is ephemeral; eventually, greed takes down every site, every service, every game....

I guess I’m happy they remembered that she can shapeshift? But yeah bleh. Also that art is terrible!? I know JRJR has some weaknesses in his art style, but generally it does look good. But damn, you shouldn’t mess up the death of a character that bad!?

I very much hope they don’t bring her back more in line with the…

I’m guessing this is gonna lead to a retcon that Kamala is actually a mutant, like in the MCU, and she just gets resurrected through Krakoan whosomawhatsits.

No, but he’s glowing with the light, so is a version of his the Ace of Spades. This realm is likely something inside the Traveler. Some are speculating that those blessed with the light, return to the Traveler when they die.

The darkness fed us nightmares, the light might feed us dreams....
