Nobody is paying for their api... And reducing cost? How? People will either leave or use scrapers/RSS to get their stuff idk how thats going to work out... Also reddit app has 3.stars on Google play most people will not download a tree stars app to begin with.
There are apps going to pay, also providing an API has been cost intensive for Reddit. It’s not as simple as you make it seem I‘m afraid.
What apps? I haven't seen a single one.
And no, providing an api reduces load on the server because otherwise people use scrapers... Wich happened before. You just believe what reddit is shiting out.
Infinity is going to a paid subscription model
Most users already said they ain't paying for it i liked the app, but im not paying horrendous amounts of money for using fucking reddit, especially nit after that ama...
Yeah. I'd rather pay to support a kbin or lemmy instance. Especially if it were a cooperative or something like that.
