I'm interested to hear why you believe a third-party app developer and multiple groups of moderators have all decided to somehow coordinate a scam against Reddit, and also why you believe Reddit is in the right here? Why is that easier to believe/agree with than the majority opinion expressed on HN?

3p app dev and mods spread narrative which doesn't stand trivial fact checking, and majority believes in what they want to believe without digging into details.

> you believe Reddit is in the right here

I didn't say anything like that. Reddit is private for profit company, owns platform and content and acts to maximize long term profit.

Currently they are acting in maximizing alienation of their users and maximizing the chance a viable competitor platform emerges.

they lost PR battle, everything else you said is up to discussion.

That's reddit, not any devs or mods.

mods decide what appear on subreddits, most anti-reddit narrative was spread as sticky posts on popular subreddits.
