Reddit bills itself as the internet’s front page, and it has made its content freely accessible via several popular third-party clients such as Sync, Relay, and Boost. The platform recently announced that it will change the data API that these apps use, as well as its terms, developer terms, embed terms, and ads API terms, which could have a massive impact on the third-party Reddit scene.
According to the information shared with the Apollo developer, third-party clients would have to use either an inexpensive ad-supplemented data stream or a more expensive one with all Reddit features for their client apps.
