@christianselig serious question: would it be cheaper—or even possible—to basically proxy the Reddit API through your own Apollo servers so you only make any given request from Reddit once? Any way to investigate if that would actually be a feasible solution?

@cassidy @christianselig I’ve seen other services recommended this, basically setting up your own caching server. That was for an already free API though, so might be a ToS violation in this case.

@cassidy @christianselig why do you see value in this as opposed to say increasing the usability of free and open federated services like kbin or lemmy?
