Even with a perfectly free client you still need to perform computation on a remote machine that's outside of your control to post on (or read) reddit. Which is the same violation he moans about in this article,
> Doing your own computing via software running on someone else's server inherently trashes your computing freedom.
As always with Stallman he is dogmatic well past the point of reasonableness.
Stallman is stalwart. The dogma is the point and his obstinate, steady nature is what I love best about him. Free software continues to be incredibly important. For me, he is fresh air in the breathlessly optimistic, grasping, and negligent climate currently dominating the field.
reddit was also open source at one point, so at least in theory anybody could run their own copy. I agree Stallman is far from reasonable but AFAIK he's consistent with his unreasonable standards.
