Christian is releasing the final update for Apollo, allowing users to opt out of the refunds (mastodon.social)

Attached: 1 image I just released a really important Apollo update that adds the ability for users with remaining subscription time left to decline an automatic refund. Devs pay refunds out of pocket, and this will be about $250K, so I thank you for your consideration. ❤️ Also, this update includes an amazing "Goodbye Apollo...

Apollo refund screen with the following header:

"Apollo will shut down on July 1, 2023 due to not being able to afford Reddit’s drastic and sudden API pricing increase.

Building Apollo for you has been the dream and journey of a lifetime. Thank you. ❤️ Please consider the option below to help with my out-of-pocket refund costs.

- Christian (u/iamthatis)”

Then with the option to decline a refund:

"If you've been happy with Apollo and don't need me to send a pro-rated refund out-of-pocket for remaining subscription time, please choose this option. I thank you.”

Same, my hope is that with people opting out and the wallpaper he shouldn’t have to pay much, if anything, out of pocket.

Another user was having a similar problem with Reddit not retaining their edits when running a script. They fixed the issue by putting a time delay of five or six seconds between edits. Not saying this will work for you but might be worth looking into.

Yep I had this conversation with someone on Christian’s post about canceling Apollo. I owned the Alien Blue Premium App and when Reddit bought the app they gave anyone owned said app either 16 or 17 thousand Reddit Coins, cannot remember the exact amount. I have never purchased Reddit coin nor do I know what it costs but if me using some of those coins that they gave me gets a post to the front page then so be it.

I agree but this is really some cutting off your nose to spite* your face territory. It’s like someone had a conversation with him about not burning bridges with the people that provide him with free labor and what he took away from that conversation is that fire isn’t an efficient enough medium of which to destroy said bridges.

YSK that it is not a proper way to wash your fruits and veggies with soap

Why YSK this is that some of the soap absorbs into the fruit, especially berries, and let's say you are washing your cherries with dish soap, and you eat them. That story ends with a long bathroom trip as soap makes you a little queasy. ETA: Nobody has heard about this?! I see it in the southeast where I live.

I know right?!? Dish soap by itself isn’t going to get all of the outdoors off of your fruits and veggies, need to add some bleach to really get your produce sparkling! /s

Deal. I challenge you, BangelaQuirkel, to a game of Tiddlywinks. First one to figure out how play gets to eat this person’s sandwich.

The Future of Reddit after the Blackout

As an effect of the recent Reddit blackout, the company is now surrounded by disappointed investors and community. I predict that Reddit may end up facing the same fate as Tumblr: being sold to another company. Only time will tell what the future holds for Reddit, but one thing is for sure - the protest will leave a lasting...

I agree but I’ve been thinking of deleting on the 29th just to beat the rush.
