I mean there’s Reddit ofc, as well as Twitter in its entirety, Discord is implementing some dumb updates, there are issues with Tumblr as well as everything to do with Meta, and I’m sure there are plenty more (and I haven’t even touched other digital media, for example the Sims). Why is it all happening in the span of about a couple months?

    Because greed. I distinctly recall reading an article five years ago that predicted an escalating trend towards subscription-based models, and regrettably, the situation has only worsened since then.
