News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

It's going to vary based on the usage amount. Popular apps are going to be charged a lot.

From Reddit's blog about the change:

Effective July 1, 2023, the rate for third-party apps that require higher usage limits is $0.24 per 1K API calls.

Apollo's developer stated in May 2023, Apollo made 7 billion requests, which would put it at about 1.7 million dollars per month, or 20 million US dollars per year.

Yes, according to the dev of Apollo it's $12,000 for 50 million API calls and he said he paid $166 for the same amount of API calls from imgur.

And imgur is hosting images not text so if anything imgur should cost more than reddit

Rumor has it, they want to be flexible and work with you on this pricing. < /end_joke>

It’s $0.24 per 1000 calls https://www.redditinc.com/blog/apifacts

I saw specific numbers posted several times. Google it.

You never heard about the $1.7 million a month it would cost the Apollo developer?
