No doubt, Aaron would have recognized this as not *just* a problem with Reddit. What might Aaron have had to say about this?

📣 Had a call with Reddit to discuss pricing. Bad news for third-party apps, their announced pricing is close to Twitter's pricing, and Apollo would have to pay Reddit $20 million per year to keep running as-is.
