Popular Reddit third-party app Apollo announced it will shut down on June 30, 2023, due to Reddit‘s new API pricing plans that would cost the app $20 million annually. Christian Selig, the app’s developer, had previously voiced his concerns over the impact of Reddit‘s API pricing plans on third-party apps. Reddit has said the changes were made to prevent other companies from using the site as free fodder to train their AI, but the price increases have led to controversy and backlash from app makers and the community. Several major subreddits are planning to go dark on June 12 in protest. Apollo, which launched in 2017, has over the years gained popularity for features such as a full Markdown writing editor and Lock Screen widgets.
