Got off my call with Reddit just now about the API. Bad news unless I come up with 20 million dollars (not joking). Appreciate boosts. https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/13ws4w3/had_a_call_with_reddit_to_discuss_pricing_bad/
📣 Had a call with Reddit to discuss pricing. Bad news for third-party apps, their announced pricing is close to Twitter's pricing, and Apollo would have to pay Reddit $20 million per year to keep running as-is.

Hey all, I'll cut to the chase: 50 million requests costs $12,000, a figure far more than I ever could have imagined. Apollo made 7 billion...

@christianselig This isn’t even greedy—it’s just asinine. I’m sorry dude, let me know if there’s anything we can do to raise awareness.

@snazzyq @christianselig Didn't you just recently start using Apollo too? Kinda feel like this is your fault :p

No but seriously, this feels almost worth a video to talk about the insane pricing while highlighting a whole bunch of different Reddit Apps and what they bring to the table compared to the official App.

If more folks start moving to fedi then that will hurt these greedy companies bottom line so just find a reddit analog on fedi and move there
