Reddit is not trying to kill third party apps, officially. Instead they’re just pricing the API requests du ridiculously high that few, if any, will survive.
Consequently, nobody but the individual developers can tell you which ones are going to try and manage.
At this point I’m pretty sure the reason no mod during this whole thing has been specific about what tools they’re losing is because it’s probably not as big of a deal as they’re trying to make it seem.
No one will give me a straight answer about what specifically the mods will no longer be able to do.
Hey. Like you, I have no idea what tools they are losing (have lost). I DO know that the mods know the tools and the mods were trying to work with the Reddit execs in order to make the transition better and more efficient. I know this because of posted texts/transcripts. I also know that Reddit has not been honest or arguing in good faith.
That’s all I need to know. I don’t need to know if a tool is called ice cube checker and it measures how much ice is in the cup I’m drinking, or if Ice Cube is in a new movie. It doesn’t matter. What I do know tells me enough info to make my decision.
I found doing a lot of my basic mod actions very difficult on the main reddit app, where Apollo makes them second nature.
Will you be losing the ability to do any mod actions?
They’re just much harder or not available on the reddit app, as opposed to 3rd party ones.
