For once I’m with reddit (on people using third party apps but reasons are different where reddit wanted to no longer compete with third party apps, and I don’t want people giving reddit money after the end of the protest). I’d prefer third party apps be dead for good if mobile plan type subscriptions are necessary to exist (by this I mean the third party apps need subscriptions to exist because of reddit’s decision to charge for api which they aren’t going to change because people were unwilling to quit during the protest, and showed reddit they are too addicted to stay away. So now the aftermath for users is either pay or don’t, and I’d rather people not pay reddit money. Better off quitting mobile use than pay money is my stance.).

So the few hold outs now either give into using reddit app like reddit wants or go through the process of getting third party apps to work for free. Or use the website or preferably move to not contributing to reddit anymore through mobile, and just moving to lurker status through rss or accountless apps like Stealth for Android.
