The Iconfactory Jan 30, 2024

Online media can be overwhelming. It's fragmented between countless services, websites, social networks, and apps.

You need an app that weaves together an overview of nearly everything that’s happening across all the different services you follow.

That’s our vision for Project Tapestry, the new Kickstarter we're launching today.

Very excited about Project Tapestry from the Iconfactory, now available to back on Kickstarter. We need more apps for the social web like this that work across multiple platforms. It will support Micro.blog too!

Reddit had a no good, very bad week. Reversing on its 15-year support of 3rd party apps, new API pricing makes using anything other than the official app financially unviable. And with just 30-days before changes take effect, indie devs are on the hook for potentially millions of dollars of unexpected costs and/or App Store refunds. I talked with @christianselig about how it has affected Apollo, the best iOS Reddit client out there.

Reddit is totally pulling a Twitter.

I'd say a Reddit client is at least technically possible, unlike Twitter, but pricing would have to be around $10/month which really reduces the # of users that would be willing to pay to where it may just not be financially viable.

📣 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...

This is insanity. It’s reasonable to seek lost revenue potential—but at 20x (TWENTY TIMES!) the cost of an overly generous ARPU? They are high (on drugs). https://mastodon.social/@christianselig/110464420566906146

@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.

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/
