View submission: An Update Regarding Reddit’s API

This is just a roundabout way of saying they're killing off 3rd party clients. They're not officially killing off the clients but they're going to make them so hard to develop and, so crippled, that they're basically useless.

I guess it's just time for me to quit Reddit. It is such a cancerous time sink anyway.

When my favourite 3rd party app bugged out on my phone I just didn't look for a new one for a while and I was honestly happier. Now I'm back here on boost.

I initially got mad seeing the op. But when they kill 3rd party apps and old.reddit I will finally be free of this shitty site.

Or they are charging the third-party clients, forcing the clients to move to a subscription model.

With that and the push for a "new" Reddit, this shite site is starting to become more and more of a stupid Facebook wannabe clone. Not to mention the NFT avatars either.

None of this is good. That's too many red flags.
