@christianselig i will concede reddit one point, Apollo could be a little bit more efficient, for example, when it starts you load a list of all subreddits every signed in account is subscribed to.

HOWEVER, this ignores the fact that Reddit's API is *inherently* inefficient. For those unaware, the endpoint "/subreddits/mine/subscriber.json" by default returns a paginated list of the users subscribed subreddits, 100 at a time. For me, the first page of this is 1.1 *MB* of JSON, not 1.1KB, 1.1MB, because listings in the Reddit API return almost *all* the details about an object, including details no end user and almost no API consumer need to know. (like if the subreddit is advertiser-friendly, "is_enrolled_in_new_modmail", "accounts_active_is_fuzzed", etc). Some of these details (like the user's flair) *definately* make more DB calls than you need, and should definately be seperate API calls.
