I mean, this is funny but at the same time sad
I'm surprised that anyone wouldn't have known..
Clearly you've never had to work in customer support. People take "ignorance is bliss" to heart.
You caught me. Never worked customer support a day in my life!
There was so much media coverage and notifications around it. I can't believe so many people were blindsided!
You're giving humans too much credit the vast majority are idiots. Probably me included.
Not being aware of the api change doesn't make someone stupid just means they aren't chronically online and don't fellow the fear mongering media
That's wild. Didn't most of the apps release notifications in advance, through the app interface? It's possible Reddit actually is having outages, as well as having cut off third party apps, though I am not going to check.
I imagine these were the same people complaining about their favorite subreddits being closed. Completely clueless over what was happening right in front of them.
Sad.
That's honestly kinda sad :( At least I had weeks to prepare for it..
