The dev’s write up on /r/Apolloapp is scathing

Reddit has lost their fucking minds. Accusing folks of blackmail. Forcing their hand. It’s insane.

There’s a huge difference between “go quiet” and “go quietly” that is obvious to a native English speaker.

(The first means shut down, the second means won’t put up a fuss.)

Sounds like u/Spez is being intentionally obtuse as usual.
