    Reddit is not trying to kill third party apps, officially. Instead they’re just pricing the API requests du ridiculously high that few, if any, will survive.

    Consequently, nobody but the individual developers can tell you which ones are going to try and manage.

      At this point I’m pretty sure the reason no mod during this whole thing has been specific about what tools they’re losing is because it’s probably not as big of a deal as they’re trying to make it seem.

      No one will give me a straight answer about what specifically the mods will no longer be able to do.

    They are making the API cost money which will make mod tools harder to use and essentially break but, apparently they have made exceptions for that

    I found doing a lot of my basic mod actions very difficult on the main reddit app, where Apollo makes them second nature.
