    But they promised us that old reddit isn’t going anywhere. Surely, we can trust that something won’t happen if they say it won’t happen, right?

      You can trust that it won’t happen in the next fifteen minutes, probably. I wouldn’t believe much further out than that.

        I think the 3PA devs got about four months, right?

        Reddit in January: we will not charge for the API. Not in the next few years, at least.

        Reddit in April: charges are coming, but they’ll be totally reasonable and based in reality

        Reddit in May: if you want to use the API, you should pay us 29x what we make from customers that don’t use it
