For sure, I completely agree

In no way is Reddit responsible for providing 3rd party API access.

A big part of the frustration for me is them pretending like they are still doing the right thing by continuing to provide it. When in reality it is simply not affordable

Genuinely curious why

and do not sympathize with for-profit 3rd party developers

From my understanding many of them are more than willing to pay for API access, but Reddit is making the prices unreasonable
