Reddit wants to kill 3PAs. What I don't understand is why they're going through the whole act of pretending that the API is going subscription when they're making it prohibitively expensive and only giving them a month to put it in place. Why not just be honest and shut it down to third parties entirely?
I mean Spez was ghost editing comments at one point and is trying to blackmail the creator of Apollo. He’s not a person of good character.
TBH, just what I expected from a Redditor.

More so 4chan.
Yep. Even if Spez rolled everything back, he destroyed all trust we had in Reddit. No going back from that...
Simple, they hope some poor schmuck actually tries to make it work and instead of a reasonable split for the labour of the 3PA's dev they take basically all of it 🤪
