What I hear: 1. We DO want to make a ton of money off of this 2. We will make you pay for the API access but still block things like NSFW 3. Because we still want users to use our shitty app and site for ad revenue 4. We haven’t even thought of what parts of the API you will and will not get access to 5. We really wanted to frame all of this positively so we pretend it’s reasonable costs, as if API users would cost more than having those people use reddits own api on their website. I guarantee they won’t offer any better service, just demand payment now, will continue to make their site shittier, but increase pricing year on year.
