View submission: An Update Regarding Reddit’s API
It seems to be the reverse. They’re introducing more API rate limits and “reaching out” to existing apps to shake them down for money.
New 3P apps will be “allowed” and the initially small user base will fit within the free rate limit.
The best and most established 3P apps will have large user bases and will be held random for high fees. They’d have to extract subscription rates from end users to pay the toll or lose access.
