#Reddit kills third-party apps by hiking API fees to girnomous levels.

*Me not realising that there were even third-party apps*

So I'm not sure that the narrative that Reddit will destroy its business by doing this is true, cos it doesn't affect users like me, which I suspect, is a majority of its users.

However, as a developer, I will think twice about developing anything for a for-profit platform, seeing what happened with #Twitter etc. It is ... not great that platforms are ..1/2

@liztai From what I understand the reason so many subreddits are revolting is because moderators rely on third-party apps to moderate their communities (as the official tools are apparently inadequate).
@rakyat OIC. That makes sense. I can understand why!
