Fact Check: Reddit didn't hike API prices by an absurd amount.
That was was the story spread far and wide by the Apollo app developer that was believed by the gullible and angry Reddit masses.
But Reddit actually set a reasonable API price, as evidenced by the fact that a year and a half later there are still five 3rd party apps running on reasonable subscriptions:
Infinity For Reddit
Nara For Reddit
Narwhal 2
Now for Reddit
Relay For Reddit
This is cherry-picked to the point of revisionism, no? There used to be dozens and dozens of apps and countless useful bots and other tools that ran off of the API. <1% of those tools surviving the price hike actually further confirms that the price change wasn't reasonable.
