I think a lot of the outrage is the people that used to use the app on Reddit but have been priced out by this strategy. It’s very disappointing and, if my time on Reddit has tought me anything, people are very quick to vent the frustrations by posting.

A lot of the initiatives are ineffective by design because the real goal is to give the consumers agency over the problem.
