Relay users are now paying up to 4.99$ per month to use Reddit API - eviltoast

Basically, title, here is a link to the Reddit thread for people curious: https://archive.ph/6mObB

I’m quite surprised with the neutral to positive reactions, which also show that some people will probably never leave Reddit.

    I did the exact same thing, but I gotta say even in the months leading up to the subscription the quality and traffic in my subs had diminished to almost nothing, there were so many subs that were already gone or inaccessible from mobile. There was a time when I think I would’ve been ok with paying $2-3/month for the previous content but never in the current state.

      I totally agree. I wasn’t decided on quitting Reddit just because of the 3rd party apps fiasco, but the overall quality of the content took a nosedive which only further reinforced my decision to uninstall Relay once the subs finally came.

      At a cost of free it was still like of worth checking out but not if I have to pay.
