Apollo can’t afford Reddit’s fees and will be subject to auto-refund for shutting down, so users can help by declining the refund.

    Wait, Redditors are now bandwagoning on this slander too? I just figured it was a bullshit claim that u/spez made that the rest of the Reddit community saw through and weren’t buying.

    If there actually is a large number of people actually believing this shit, then my already rock-bottom hope for Reddit has somehow plummeted further.

      Every reddit thread about Apollo is filled with hate against Apollo and christian.

      The message that’s being repeated is that he’s made millions of the poor backs of reddit and should be ashamed for taking advantage of the free api. Him asking to decline the refund is a scam/fraud to squeeze the last money he can from his poor users.

      I would not be surprised to find out that the posts comes from bot farms or spez himself.

      Dude, it’s the internet. People are dumb by default around here. (Me very well included.)
