    I used apple music for years, switched to Spotify to try it, then switched back after a year. If you ever did change your mind there’s software to port over your playlists to other streaming services. I used STAMP but I know there’s a few others out there.

    I very much enjoyed the excatholic subreddit (same idea, different flavour), but there's a discord at least. Perhaps there's an exmo discord out there?

    Yeah I think they'll still be around for at least a couple of years. Content quality will go down when mod tools disappear, so it depends if reddit is able to fix that gap fast enough before the content quality drops below a level that people want to keep coming back for. Who knows what will happen in the end.

    If they had worked on improving moderation tools and making the website ADA compliant before giving a very short-notice deadline to shut down 3rd party APIs I would be much more understanding. I probably would have begrudgingly moved over to their crappy app. After all, they are a business and they can do what they want for the most part.

    However, their website has been around too long to still not be ADA compliant, what were they waiting for? In addition, they rely on free labour for moderation when other websites spend millions, but they still can't be bothered to improve mod tools before making a drastic shift? They should have communicated with these communities (folks with disabilities and mods) and addressed their concerns long before shutting down 3rd party APIs.

    The way they went about all of this was really poorly planned. I'm not even a mod but I'm leaving on principle.

    Ah I am very tempted to try and get that set! I figure it can double as a Christmas decoration. It just looks way too fun to build, especially all of the details inside of the house.

    I also am missing subreddits around women's topics, but I heard ovarit is pretty TERFy. Have you noticed anything like that there?
