I personally jumped ship because of the API pricing changes of Reddit.

I don't even use third party apps. It's just that I can't give an entity my business when they treat folks who volunteer to make their platform better like that.

I am the opposite. I had a Reddit login for years but never used it. When I found out about Apollo, I gave it another go and it quickly became my Number 1 Internet time sink.

With Apollo no longer functional, Reddit (for me) is no longer functional.

The fuckery was just the icing on the cake to force me to delete my account.
