Not to go all “I told you so” but I do recall Christian talking about how Reddit would never do anything like this and how much trust he had in their developer relations team now, oh, sometime earlier this year. Hope he took the suggestion to have a backup plan seriously…relying on the whims of a single company is a hard way to make your income. Doesn’t mean you can’t try it but it is fundamentally pretty risky.

I found this attitude from Christian really off-putting.

Dude, you run an interface to another company’s core business. You cannot make any guarantees about what they may or may not do.

I feel like it's the same thing with people who have a youtube channel.

If you're in a situation where all of your income comes from a company, but you don't have an employer/employee contract with that company. It seems like such a precarious position to me.
