It's really fucking shit. Yeah yeah, "get off Reddit". Sure, but still, this is fairly important. It completely breaks third-party archiving (which is why they've done it, even if they won't directly admit as such)...

It's sort of "funny" seeing all the mods who clamoured for this sort of shit, and did so much of the removing, complaining and moaning that the Admins have done this, ostensibly for legal reasons, with little to no consultation or warning.

Really, this is the environment they created, and they're the ones who broke the site so much that we were relying on these external archives. But no, self-awareness is just too hard.

So yeah, that's that, I guess. Thus ends our ability to see things as the mods/admins do not want us to see...

Pretty damn shitty if you ask me.
