Apps that make fewer than 100 queries per minute using OAuth authentication
This is what Reddit allows for free, why is Relay asking for 1$ when using 50 queries a day?
Edit: Nevermind, reddit apparently counts access against the app-id and not the logged in user. So this would only work if you could use your own app-id within Relay which isn’t possible.

Because Relay has a few thousand users.
I mean the user initiates the login flow and gets the token, why does it matter how many users Relay has?
Maybe I am misunderstanding how API pricing for reddit works though. Do they count it against the app id and not the user?
Yes, that.
The app has is own API, not for individual user.
They are averaging out the cost.
What? That doesn’t make any sense, why would they suddenly ask for payment to use their own API?
Because they are paying Reddit for that API use, they won’t be getting it for free.
More like API Key I would say, still reddit API
They don’t have their own api, but they have a shared api-key to reddit which all user requests would use
