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!

    The media has declared reddit the winner multiple times since the protest started.

    Fuck the media. There are still 1800+ restricted subreddits.

    Who won? Anybody who realized that reddit was commodifying your posts, comments, and contributions and left that shitshack.
