It is not entirely clear how they can change to make less requests, or if the Reddit employee even compared apps fairly. There is a floor count of API calls needed.
The Apollo developer tested the official Reddit app, and it makes a similar amount of API calls: https://www.reddit.com/r/redditdev/comments/13wsiks/api_update_enterprise_level_tier_for_large_scale/jmnj9xc/ https://www.reddit.com/r/redditdev/comments/13wsiks/api_upda...
- anonred 3y agoCaching requests for feeds and comments would probably work. Reddit already does this at the server level with a low TTL. Benchmarking Apollo against the official app is not that useful since we don’t know for certain what APIs they use.
