    Reddit is not trying to kill third party apps, officially. Instead they’re just pricing the API requests du ridiculously high that few, if any, will survive.

    Consequently, nobody but the individual developers can tell you which ones are going to try and manage.

        Hey. Like you, I have no idea what tools they are losing (have lost). I DO know that the mods know the tools and the mods were trying to work with the Reddit execs in order to make the transition better and more efficient. I know this because of posted texts/transcripts. I also know that Reddit has not been honest or arguing in good faith.

        That’s all I need to know. I don’t need to know if a tool is called ice cube checker and it measures how much ice is in the cup I’m drinking, or if Ice Cube is in a new movie. It doesn’t matter. What I do know tells me enough info to make my decision.

    I found doing a lot of my basic mod actions very difficult on the main reddit app, where Apollo makes them second nature.

    They are making the API cost money which will make mod tools harder to use and essentially break but, apparently they have made exceptions for that
