You know, I realize all the people who put in money want a return on their investment. I get it.
But what I can’t forgive is killing 3rd party clients when your official client sucks all the donkey balls in every reality in every universe.
You couldn’t come to a reasonable and sane fee for 3rd party clients? Barring that, you couldn’t just buy a superior client like RiF and bolt your name on it?
There are a hundred different ways they could have reached a compromise on third party app support if it was just about API limits. They killed it because they want to gather mobile app telemetry like everyone else does these days.
That’s the thing. I get that people using the service on a third party client and not seeing ads is hurting their bottom line as they use bandwidth and not make money. But just banning them outright is a shit move. Ideally they would’ve made it part of Reddit Premium to make that a bit more worthwhile.

Fuck Spez.

Telemetry is telling them their app sucks and that people try it x period of time and then uninstall it.
It is so terrible that I log into reddit once a week on my pc.
