Unlike many other large subreddits r/books has not made any statements about the API changes. I did try and post something about it but it ended up getting deleted. At 22.1 million users this would be a pretty significant addition to the protest.
Does anyone know why there hasn't been anything official?
I think maybe most users there don't care? Like... maybe most users there use desktop or the official reddit app. Your post being deleted was probably because it wasn't related to books itself, and the mods there decided that they just wanna keep the community going
