Everyone saying their pricing is absurd had better get ready for the new wave of API pricing.

Like every other industry, there's a growth period where things are new and prices are reasonable, and then there's the "squeeze" where bean counters come in, make charts that are likely bs, and explain how much easier it'd be if we charged 4x as much for half the customer base.

Twitter was one of the first to give access to cheap mass data, and now they're one of the first to charge through the nose for that. The move is going to be that if you're not enterprise level you're not getting this data anymore, and I doubt it stops with reddit.

Good. It's about time for more people to move on to better platforms. Twitter is a cesspool, and Reddit has some good communities that will be better served from a platform that's not ruled by a greedy corporation that couldn't care less about its users.

What are these better platforms? Genuinely curious.

You are talking on one of them.

Fair enough. I do enjoy a daily dose of meme though and I’d prefer that that didn’t come from this website. It feels like this is the one place I can go to to find (usually) intelligent conversation about a wide range of topics.

funny enough that daily dose of meme feels like it has infected the entirety of reddit, at least on any sub with more than 100k subs that doesn’t have extremely strict moderation. a few months ago i left any and all subreddits that allowed image/meme posting and my reddit experience became a lot better.
