That's not my point.

My point is that Reddit developers are woefully outclassed by third party devs.

Both RIF and Pushshift were developed by third-parties.

Look at how much better Apollo is compared to the native app. That's the level of quality I expect to see between what Pushshift's API provided and what Reddit's lazy alternative will be.

Third-party apps will eventually require the new usage-based Premium API (see thread from Apollo developer[1]). Free third-party apps are likely going to be a thing of the past.
