I keep thinking this would have been a much better sell to devs and to users. I have always used Sync, and Boost. I tried the official app a few times, but really only used it for the chat feature. I didn’t want to pay for it, but (I am embarrassed to admit it) I would pay premium to keep my app. I think this would have worked out better for Reddit than the garbage they are pulling right now.

Would that have been a more reasonable solution in your opinion as well?

    I wouldn’t have paid for, but i would have accepted much better. “API usage is ad free hence only premium users can access it” is much better than “API users are freeloaders that take more than they are giving, fuck them!”
