I liked it better when they had one kind of Reddit Gold and displayed a progress bar on the homepage showing what percentage of daily operating costs were covered.
No no no but you see we need to restrict API access for the third party apps! They use just way too much bandwidth!! Apollo alone can use like 300 requests a day! We need people to use our shitty slow horrible app that uses an average of 500 requests per day. If it weren’t for third party apps we (10 billion dollar company) would be thriving!
They’re just greedy, the only reason the official app makes marginally more money despite using more requests is thanks to tracking

Yeah I get that, but I don’t respect it. I show my Patreon income even when it gets large enough that people might think twice. That’s their choice.
