Loss in terms of money or efforts. Could be recent or ancient.

Do you guys remember that time u/Spez took the reddit API away from third party apps?

    Unfortunately most reddit users didn't even notice. Or just don't care.

    I hope the Redditors that didn't care about the whole thing never find their way here. I can't imagine being that apathetic about something you use daily.

    Eh. I wouldn't hold that against them. Reddit or Lemmy is just social media. Just one small aspect in people's lives. Pretty hard to care about something like Reddit taking away API access when you've got much more important things like a job, a social life and a family to care for. Even harder when you only use the official apps.
