That’s a straw man. The 3P client devs were willing to pay. 2-3x the ARPU but Reddit is demanding 20x. At one point a dev could even do a 10x multiplier with paid subscription but the admins are only interesting in killing them off.

I agree that they probably are not that interested in the survival of the apps and are happy to see them die off but my question is why anyone is surprised by that.
