Announcement 📣📣 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.(self.apolloapp)

Same. Once Apollo is gone, Reddit is gone for me too.
It was a nice decade.
A thing isn’t beautiful because it lasts.
But last it will, going on to gorge itself greedily like the river spirit.
I can hold out on my computer at home using old.reddit but the moment that's gone I'm done.
Even that sucks compared to these no frills apps.
Well, old.reddit and RES. But between RES being on life support and old.reddit on the chopping block...
Wait I haven’t heard news about RES, what’s going on with that?
They’re seriously gonna get rid of the old style Reddit? I’m 100% gone if that happens.
I think as a last resort type of thing, someone could create an API that just scrapes site data from old, kind of like they do with NewPipe.
The worst part is that they don’t let you use Reddit with a browser either. It just straight up tries to force you to use their own app. It has gotten to a point where I don’t click on google links referring to Reddit when I’m on my phone.
Generally if you open the link in a new tab, it will not force-launch the app. At least that’s my experience on iOS.
Yeah but a lot of the time it says that a subreddit is NFSW and you can only view it in the app. That’s what sucks.
Same here. Been on this site for over 12 years, I guess it had to end sometime. Such a shame.
It’s a shame too because Reddit is so informative and helpful in so many ways. We all make it work, very well. It’s a shame that greed has to ruin a good thing we have going.
Was it though? Was it really.
Surely the next will be better!...
