Reddit says that it'll begin charging certain developers and organizations for access to its user-generated content.
Not sure how that will affect libreddit or teddit. That'd would prevent me to get some news on specific channels, which when interesting enough, I brought to lemmy, :)
It's funny because I just recently created a tiny web app that I run off my own computer which allows me to aggregate the feeds of any subreddit I want along with posts from Lemmy and other Reddit-like forums. Because of this, this change won't really affect me. While I do occasionally use a third party Reddit app to surf Reddit, I mostly just use my web app and it doesn't use any Reddit APIs but just scrapes the website directly. Only thing is I've heard that they might be getting rid of old Reddit. I currently scrape from old Reddit rather than the new one because the old one has easier HTML objects to identify. Still, it shouldn't be too hard start scraping the new UI, if I have to.
Oh, that's what you meant. Yeah, that could be an issue, but I imagine at least some hosts will pay for the API if it affects them, depending on how much it costs. Hopefully they can continue to work. If not, it might be time to do some web scraping and get around the API.
