I knew it was coming, but I still wasn't ready. Gonna keep it on my phone screen if not only because it'd look so fucking weird without it.

I wonder if the sub will include NSFW, but I doubt it. Imagine being rate limited browsing Reddit and no NSFW posts.

the API itself won't contain nsfw from what I'm aware of so it literally is just to continue using the app that is now only slightly better than the official one :/

Well, it'll be rate limited, so you could potentially hit a limit for the month, or pay more for their higher rate tier that he's working on.

I want to wait and see how much the subscription is. I can easily add another $5 or less to my list of monthly subs. Any more than that, and I might have to call it a day.

I'm in a lot of niche but active communities on Reddit. Lemmy just isn't there yet for me.

It's been a hell of a ride for sure. Infinity was my choice, and they're moving to a subscription model. I wish the dev the best of luck.

I don't mind paying a sub to support, but spez really soured me on Reddit as a whole.

Just curious. How much are these subscriptions? I can't imagine they're reasonably priced.

No idea. It all depends on how much costs they incur through API calls.

Apparently it would have cost the Apollo dev something like 20 million USD per year at the scale Apollo was operating.
