    The craziest part of that to me is that they could have just charged the users directly without putting the onus for payment on the app developers.

    You want your account to be able to use the data API? You have to subscribe to Reddit+. Once you do, that account can use any Oauth App it wants to access the site.

    The fact that they put something as complicated as payment flow on third party developers is just obscene.
