It looks like Reddit is keen to pull an Elon around API pricing.

Yes, of course it is risky to build a business based on access to someone else’s platform. They hold the cards. But one of the joys of the open web was the ability to use the client you wanted. A graphical browser, a command line browser, from a script etc.

Once again, what a mess corporatisation of the web has caused.
