Christian Selig, the developer of the popular iOS Reddit client Apollo, posted on the social network on Wednesday saying that the social network’s new API pricing might put him out of business. Selig is not alone in thinking like this. Since then, several third-party Reddit app developers have expressed their concern about their apps’ sustainability.

To be clear, Reddit hasn’t officially announced the prices of its new plans. But Selig says that in a call with the Reddit team, he learned that the new pricing will cost $12,000 per 50 million requests and Apollo made 7 billion requests last month. The developer of another iOS app Narwhal — who also had a call with the Reddit team — posted on the app’s subreddit that this pricing will cost them roughly $1-2 million a year and they can’t afford it.
