I came from relay, which is one of the few apps that still work. But it had to become reddits bitch to do so.

No nsfw subs, and soon there will be a monthly subscription fee, with multiple tiers depending on what API call limit you need.

And reddit still doesn't provide an API for new features like reddit chat, nor the rest, but those I never cared about.

Relay is on life support, I hope the dev realises that this is a stopgap. Reddit hasn't maintained feature parity between the 3rd party API and their internal one for years, which was fine when it was free, but paid services usually come with support. The reddit API isn't going to have that. This is just a way for reddit to seem like they want 3rd party apps to still be a thing, while still in reality killing them.
