Not sure why this was in the iOS 16 thread but posts can be moved into here if a mod wants to do it.

Looks like Apollo app will be shutting down soon du to Reddits new API cost.

I don't see the issue. Reddit has no obligation to even have an api in the first place let alone let other companies use it.

This is actually very true. Even though the Apollo app is a good app. Reddit should have purchased and used the app. They could have made money with it.
