View submission: API Updates & Questions

The official app is **absurdly** **enshittified** and banning third party apps for the average user does not change this.

Q: Is access to sexually explicit content/subreddits being removed from the API? How about other types of NSFW?
A: No. Access to all subreddits will continue to be available to free-tier developers via the API, granted their apps are not third-party UIs.

This statement heavily implies that pricing out third party mobile apps is the intended goal of this. But I'll ask anyway;

The official app is so heavily enshittified many people much prefer having customization over how what they see is presented.

I do all my moderation from Relay for Reddit. I think the official app is absolute garbage and only switch to it when I need to do a specific task Relay does not support. Am I shit out of luck? Will my subreddits have to go without me and the other mods like me during the time we don't have access to desktop?
