That explains quite a bit. I thought to myself that I've got less mail than usual today, and assumed one of my local cron jobs had failed. But now I noticed it's the Reddit feeds gone quiet.

It's no wonder all my feeds are red. The internet is becoming so restricted! It's really sad.

The enshittification continues as the garden is walled-off.

Let it die. The internet will never evolve because people just bent over and took it when Reddit and Twitter closed themselves off and went hostile in 2023.

RSS feeds supposed to be the cheapest way to read data from your website, they are not pulling whole 10MB of javascript and other assets, but, yeah, let's block those. Everyone will just send their "llm agents" to pull data from regular website anyway.
