A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This for me is the stupid part about this, reddit is forcing developers to paywall any functionality.
Want the app to automatically refresh your subs each day? $0.5 please.
Want faster loads of each sub? $1 (Sleig mentioned Apollo first pulls 20 posts and then 100 to improve loading, so 2 requests instead of 1).
You reached the average number of calls: do you want continue for $1?
(I'm guessing mods take more requests since they have to see more context about users, posts, comments) do you want mod tools? $2
Is mod mail a separate request? If so then: would you like to have it for $1 more?
And on and on with every new feature which requires more requests than normal.
