I encourage everyone to let Reddit know how we feel. En masse. I did here:

support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-u

I “applied” as an api developer and wrote as follows.

My comment:

I read today you’re poised to effectively charge the developer of Apollo $20mm a year to continue providing access to Reddit which is, in a word, untenable (or laughable unless your goal is to push everyone to use your own client).

@christianselig @simonbs I’m writing to encourage you to take a hard look at twitter losing 2/3 of its value in part due to such a shortsighted maneuver. Apollo is orders of magnitude better than the official Reddit client. Please don’t pretend otherwise. At worst, buy it. Buy it now.

@christianselig @simonbs Turn it into your client and proceed as you like, but I want to warn you if that’s the right word - you’re going to lose most of that audience if you try forcing an inferior product on us in favor of a short sighted cash grab. Some are already seeking proactive alternatives, and I hate the effect it’s having in a community I’ve loved for over 10 years.
