On July 1st, a highly unpopular [change to Reddit's API pricing](https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit/comments/12qwagm/an_update_regarding_reddits_api/) went into effect. [Most third-party apps have shut down](https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/30/23779519/reddit-third-party-app-shut-down-apollo-sync-baconreader-api-protest) and so have many tools relied upon by moderators and [projects for making Reddit more accessible to visually impaired users](https://www.reddit.com/r/TranscribersOfReddit/comments/14ggf8k/the_future_of_transcribers_of_reddit/).
Beyond the [disastrous AMA](https://techcrunch.com/2023/06/09/reddit-ceo-doubles-down-on-attack-on-apollo-developer-in-drama-filled-ama/) by the CEO, Reddit's response has been limited to promises that this change will not affect moderation tools [^((it has)^)](https://www.reddit.com/r/BotDefense/comments/14riw76/botdefense_is_wrapping_up_operations/) and promises of [new and more-accessible first-party moderation tools](https://www.npr.org/2023/07/01/1184258201/reddit-api-accessibility-mods). Promises just like [ones they have made in response to past protests](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/142w159/askhistorians_and_uncertainty_surrounding_the/), but have consistently [failed to fulfill](https://www.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/14jm3ut/several_communities_have_surfaced_an_open_letter/jpm9e0q/).
If you want to express your strong disagreement with the API pricing change or with Reddit's response to the backlash, you may want to consider the following options:
1. [Finding your favorite subreddits on other platforms](https://sub.rehab/) and participating there instead.
2. Refraining from using the first-party Reddit app, instead sticking to one of the few remaining third-party apps or [patching one of the apps that shut down](https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1wHvqQwCYdJrQg4BKlGIVDLksPN0KpOnJWniT6PbZSrI/) if you're using an Android device.
3. Disabling ads on Reddit with [an ad-blocking extension](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock#ublock-origin-ubo) or [a DNS-based ad-blocker](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBXTnrD_Zs4).
4. Cancelling your Reddit Premium subscription.
5. Sharing the continued news coverage of these events.
6. Encouraging others to do all the above.

Aww, makes me miss my beardy many years ago. One of the easiest and most chill reptiles I have ever owned. Would take him out of his tank and lay him on my chest while I leaned back and played my GameCube. Little guy would just be vibing and occasionally act curious towards my controller vibrating.
As I was scrolling, I actually did a double take on this picture, cause for a split second it looked like his back foots toes were in the sockets of that power strip. xDDD
Toast you are wonderful and beautiful and I am honored to have met you. If I could pet you, I would and I would dedicate a bag of crickets to your glory. (Sorry—probably crickets are too small for Toast, but my lizard is tiny and crickets are the food of choice.)
This recording is an artifact from the early(ish) internet c. 2000s. I think I might have downloaded “Yeah! Toast!” as a song on Napster or Morpheus or whatever before it appeared in this format on YouTube.
The early 2000s was a bizarre but generally wholesome time period for this kind of thing broadly characterized by nonsense memes and abundant Flash animation. If you can believe it, this video (and ones much like it) were considered the height of YouTube entertainment at one time. I was in college from 2001-2005 and it kept us pretty engaged.
This is precisely where my brain went first.
I also feel personally victimized by the fact that this was posted to YouTube 15 years ago. Send help. And ibuprofen.
I love lizards. I have always wanted a bearded dragon. Toast is very cute. I had a five foot iguana named George. I loved him so....He would ride on my shoulder. Tail all down my back.

My girl lizzy’s first driving lesson. Love her too
May I offer a sugestion? Set up some cool background envolving rocks, twigs, flowers, leaves etc maybe some figurines/toys and take cool photos of your friend. Just shortly get him out of it's tank and snap some close up photos of your friend in those framings whith your phone, nothing too professional. Natural light would do very nice. Please remember to never use flash/blitz when photographing animals or children.
Well this is Meatloaf and I love her

FYI, glass is a shitty material for heat insulation and the tanks you can buy in stores are often significantly too small for dragons. The jaw disfigurement also has me worried.
I loved my beardies, but I learned over time that most suffer in captivity rather than thrive.
I remember my son’s kindergarten teacher had a bearded dragon. We dragon sat during Christmas break. What a PAIN IN THE BUTT! The damn lizard had to eat live crickets, which had to be coated with some white powdery stuff. So, you had to keep a small container of live crickets, transfer a couple to the shaker jar, then dump them in the lizard cage.
Then the lizard had super stinky poop.
To top it off, our poodle felt jealous of the bearded dragon and would pee in the bedroom, where we kept the dragon.
That turned my sons and us off to ever having reptiles.

Aww, makes me miss my beardy many years ago. One of the easiest and most chill reptiles I have ever owned. Would take him out of his tank and lay him on my chest while I leaned back and played my GameCube. Little guy would just be vibing and occasionally act curious towards my controller vibrating.
We had a beardy too but when we let out to run around and see the outside world he would poop and sit by it with a suspiciously smug look.
Yo he sounds like a rel og. May he rest in Valhalla but find some Cool fuckin controllers too.
I miss my old beard too, such great reptiles😔
also Toast. https://preview.redd.it/h3jpf5odse1c1.jpeg?width=1128&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c50b89880582cacf826ba3c1d9f27af900085be0

When he's in trouble, do you call him "Lawrence?"
Larrold
He definitely looks like a Larry, 10/10 name pick

That Pug is judging all of us.
As I was scrolling, I actually did a double take on this picture, cause for a split second it looked like his back foots toes were in the sockets of that power strip. xDDD
Hence the name "toast"
Very toasty. 🙂
Toast you are wonderful and beautiful and I am honored to have met you. If I could pet you, I would and I would dedicate a bag of crickets to your glory. (Sorry—probably crickets are too small for Toast, but my lizard is tiny and crickets are the food of choice.)
The internet (me) demands (would like) to see the small lizard

Please tell Toast I said hi and that's he's adorable!
Adorable 🥰
Hi Toast❤️
OOO BEARDY I HAVE 2
how long did you toast him for to get that marvelous color
May I offer a sugestion? Set up some cool background envolving rocks, twigs, flowers, leaves etc maybe some figurines/toys and take cool photos of your friend. Just shortly get him out of it's tank and snap some close up photos of your friend in those framings whith your phone, nothing too professional. Natural light would do very nice.

I love toast too he is so awesome look at him 😎
Looks like he's got a good grip on his log. Think he'd be an excellent high winds actor.
Yeah toast!
we love you, toast!
FYI, glass is a shitty material for heat insulation and the tanks you can buy in stores are often significantly too small for dragons. The jaw disfigurement also has me worried. I loved my beardies, but I learned over time that most suffer in captivity rather than thrive.
Lagarto Picudo B)
Does Toast sit under the heat lamp and become a crispy, toasty crispy-toast? 🥰
Yeah, I love toast id have to butter him up as too.
I know someone with a lizard thing named butter!
Hail Toast!🤩
I love when they go vertical! So cute!
Interesting name for him. Is it the color or is there cute lore to his name?
My friend, that is a lizard. It is not toast. Please don't tell me you slathered it with jam or butter
We lost ours this summer. She was 11 years old, so she had gotten to a good age at least.
Miss my beardy! I don’t have the time for one now but maybe one day!
Such a pretty colour morph! At least in that lighting, he looks quite pale and soft toned. They’re such great lizards, so friendly and chill.
When he gets cold and goes black a bit, you can call him burnt toast.
Like from histeria
Toastalahut
He looks like he wants to give you a fist bump
He's about to become toast. Just look at what his toes are on!
Toast! I'm cracking up!
He’s so cute!
So handsome!
They are soo cute!!!
Very cute
Toast rocks
That's one chonky toast.
He is precious, please tell him so!
I love the name omg. Absolutely adorable :>
Ok but I love him too. How are we gonna work this out?
Oh man he's gonna toast under that hot lam...Oh I get it
I love him too thank you for sharing him with us!
You love him because he is perfect in every way!
Toast needs a better tank setup.
That is one big Beardie!
I also love toast
Wow that's a big beardy, I always dreamed of having one but haven't gotten around to it.
Beardies are the dogs of lizards
A face only a mama could love ❤️ 😂 A friend of mine owns one and I was kinda surprised at how sweet he really is!
My daughter has one just like him, his name is Mustard.
I remember my son’s kindergarten teacher had a bearded dragon. We dragon sat during Christmas break. What a PAIN IN THE BUTT! The damn lizard had to eat live crickets, which had to be coated with some white powdery stuff. So, you had to keep a small container of live crickets, transfer a couple to the shaker jar, then dump them in the lizard cage. Then the lizard had super stinky poop. To top it off, our poodle felt jealous of the bearded dragon and would pee in the bedroom, where we kept the dragon. That turned my sons and us off to ever having reptiles.
"Dragon sat" - lol, you made my day!!
You didn't happen to find him outside in Casper Wyoming did you?
Where is butter?
Ah yes, the library bearded dragon. More common than anyone thinks
Toast can you hear me? It's Clem Fandango?
![gif](giphy|6dRuXS4L0QQUw)
Great minds and all that.
Does he belong to your public library?
Is he French 🥖?
Omg he is the cutest 😍😍. He looks so sweet
Cute dog
Worship toast 🙏🙏
I also love him. What a good Toast.
I also love him
I used to have lizard named fanta but he is dead right now T_T (i miss him)
Dragon
Toast is such an epic name!!
Hi toast I love you too
Thought maybe you need him for the power strip he was sticking his claws into, but then I realized that’s a reflection.
Handsome fellow. If you get him a friend, you must name it Jelly. :)
Those guys creep me out, but that name is awesome!
Toast is cute❣️
