    If the dev don’t revoke the token user can continue to use their apps.

    Either Reddit was deliberately very selective with which apps had to go, or spez had it done manually and didn’t make a full list of apps lol

    Reddit didn’t “kill the apps”, only charge the API, if devs continue to use their API the bill will be send to them

      Again, Christian did not revoke the Apollo token until after the app wasn’t able to authenticate. I’m pretty sure developers have to actually apply for higher rate limits using the new Developer Platform in order to be able to get charged for them.

      So, does this mean that using boost right now will hurt the developer? I’ll uninstall it now if that’s the case.
