Hm… I don't do #Reddit but apparently a certain site set a bad example with it's API pricing: https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/13ws4w3/had_a_call_with_reddit_to_discuss_pricing_bad/
Not the first huge player clamping down on it's API killing off 3rd party apps and burning bridges. This seems to be the nature of silos (or so called walled gardens).
If only there would be a solution to this dilemma. Something interoperable. Ideally without an API at all.
Like #microformats and #Webmention|s or #RSS|json|atom feeds.
Ah well, #ActivityPub will do for now 🤓
