A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Just give in to Reddit's ridiculous demands indeed.
This is just a start for them to charge even more down the line "cuz profits".
It will not be sustainable as an 3rd party app one way or the other.
They can also just revoke the access without blinking just because they would feel like it.
They're not doing this to make money on their API, they're just trying to make 3rd party apps unfeasible so users have to use their app. More control basically, more ad power.
