      Only the accessibility focused apps will be allowed by Reddit to continue free of cost. The other 3rd party apps will shutdown at the end of this month since their API costs will be too much for them to bear.

        @ChargingDoorman sorry my comment was with a heavy dose of /s. Given they valued the Apollo traffic at ~20MM my tongue in cheek was saying to keep using the 3rd party apps cos it’s “costing” them so much money.

        Only the accessibility focused apps will be allowed by Reddit to continue as long as they aren’t monetized. Sure, if you want to allow blind people to read Reddit because we can’t figure out how to do it, go nuts. But only as long as you don’t expect anything for your time and effort.
