It has been agreed that RedReader falls under the exemption for non-commercial accessibility-focused apps, due to the work that has been done to optimize the app for screen readers, and the app’s high level of usage within the blind community.

I still have concerns about Reddit’s current trajectory, and plan to expand the range of sites RedReader is able to access in future.

…

Over the last week I’ve been in touch with the developers of Lemmy, who indicated that they would prefer a slow ramp up of traffic rather than a sudden influx. Similarly, the major Lemmy instances are struggling under the sheer number of Reddit refugees right now.

…

We will continue to prioritize accessibility in the app, while also continuing to serve the userbase as a whole.
