    Guess this is goodbye to my Reddit account. I already stopped using it earlier this month, but it’s time to delete it for good. I was hoping for something reasonable to happen, but looks like it won’t.

    Honestly kinda glad to be getting the wasted time back.

      > Looks like Reddit pulled the plug a little early. Apollo started crashing, but I just manually revoked my token

      Wow, Reddit is a petty company through and through. Did they really feel the need to show off their dishonesty by yet again breaking their own word?

          Used a different app but it died too rip I don't like the website so guess I'm done except when I need to Google something.

                Christian made one gigantic error. Giving an estimate for his prorated refunds. He thought people would sympathize with having to come up with $250K, but it actually made a large portion of users realize how much he was raking in.

                That’s a pretty good gravy train and that in 6 months he’s going to try and get back. I’m willing to bet any amount this isn’t the end of Christian developing a Reddit client. He’ll be back.

                  That's just in subscription revenue of $13/year, which is for the people who wanted notifications. The revenue from ads is far more.
