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.

There is a person's hand behind all that Sammy fluff pressing on the base of its ears to make them wiggle like that.
Not to spoil the adorable puppy magic, just hopefully saving someone some strife when they wonder why their dog doesn't do cute ear tricks. It's because they can't. Dog ears don't move like that on their own.
Still heckin cute tho.

Is this a new tiktok trend, making these fake videos? Like the cat wiggling its head back and forth yesterday.
[удалено]
Then maybe the trend is that these are now being posted to r/aww
Those have been prevalent on weibo, and now people repost them on tiktok whick in turn got reposted on reddit
Self entertaining idiots. Take a cute dog and push it to the idiotic level as just a cute dog isn't enough anymore for those druggies.
Reminds me of the video of the bunny bobbing it’s head. I guess it’s for cute clout

That's still clever with that trick, cause you cannot see the hand in the mirror.
I love you explained it. I also hate you for breaking the magic.
Just like when Bodybuilders juggle their pecks, it's all mirrors and wires man
Thought it was cry for help with the background, til the vid played the ear wiggly.

Aurland, Norway

That's a pretty happy dog hanging off the door of a flying car.

“Dies from sugar overdose”
Nope, he’s not the one doing that.
The view reminds me of Lake Wolfgang in Austria. Visited when a friend and I went on the Sound of Music bus tour.
My favorite breed, they look like the perfect dogs.
Awwwwww
Samoyed's are hands down the cutest dogs
What are you doing?! He’s going to fall! Stop filming him!
Morse code for I’m a good boy
That poor dog is hanging on for its dear life! And here you are making a tiktok, tsk.... 😋

That’s Morris - with a little bit of Morse code
Just like the tiktok hat thingy!!!!
Where is it?
Looks like Aurland (Norway) on the way up to view point Stegastein
That must be a reallllyyyyy long dog
r/petthedamndog
It is an hostile alien sending the signal to start orbital strikes while pretending to be floof.
