#2All this backlash is going to kill Reddit. It will take a thousand little cuts for sure, but it started the moment they announced their ludicrous pricing.

#4Hi all! I wrote this code, and for educational purposes, I’d be more than happy to answer any questions.
A gentle reminder that the whole history is here for show. This is very vulnerable — you can see the times I was in a rush, or when I took my time. You’ll find my mistakes. Either way, all I ask is please be kind. I know there are 50 things I could have done better, but this is a product of the reality at the time — a balance between something that works and something that was cost effective for Christian.

It’s hard to put oneself out there like that.
Christian is very visible in the community, but I want to say thank you to you too.
Thank you for all the work you did! This made a lot of our experiences great.

Thanks. Relates to the Github repository, which is source available. Looks like there is no license.

This right here is why I did it. To see a friend succeed, and to help make a community happier <3

#8There's a Reddit CEO AMA later today: https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit/comments/144ho2x/join_our_ce...
Can't see it being anything other than a PR disaster for them, unless they change their stance.

I wonder.. The very same thing hardly seems to have hurt Twitter.

#10> The goal of making the code for this repo available is to show that despite statements otherwise by Reddit administrators, Apollo does not scrape anything and users purely authenticated Reddit API requests, and does a great deal of work to ensure the Reddit API rate limits are respected.
