I have a feeling like he is being squeezed by the investors. It feels like they want a tiktok/Instagram clone and he is the one that has to tell the Reddit community.

I don't think this was his vision for the site or he would have done it years ago.

Like it doesn't make it less shitty but more understandable I guess?

Nah, If he knows this is bad for reddit, he could have resigned or do somethinh else about it. Appolo is like the first app for reddit, he knew he will be asking for 20M/year for their API use. This is just a very bad attempt to make cash in the investor part and spez.

Of course all of this is in my opinion ;)
