Promote buying more "wholesome" awards to cancer related posts I guess.

Are they selling an ad free experience yet?

I'm sure they'll shut down the APIs allowing third party clients (like Apollo) soon, like Twitter did.

I know they won't care in the big picture, but if they actually do shut down the 3rd party APIs that will conclude my 10 year journey on reddit.

Good luck extricating it from your life. There’s too much utility. I’ve even come back around to Twitter after being off for 5 years. Tremendous value in having a curated list there.

I have been nervously awaiting this day as well, but I just realized something in the context of HN.

Say reddit kicked off Apollo and all the apps... What an opportunity to make a reddit API clone & then site! Apollo alone has many loving users, some of whom would go with Christian to a new backend. Maybe all the apps would agree on one to migrate to? I wonder if this is already part of reddit's calculus when considering kicking the 3rd parties.
