    a $2 base subscription with an extra $1 for notifications

    This for me is the stupid part about this, reddit is forcing developers to paywall any functionality.
    Want the app to automatically refresh your subs each day? $0.5 please.
    Want faster loads of each sub? $1 (Sleig mentioned Apollo first pulls 20 posts and then 100 to improve loading, so 2 requests instead of 1).
    You reached the average number of calls: do you want continue for $1?
    (I’m guessing mods take more requests since they have to see more context about users, posts, comments) do you want mod tools? $2
    Is mod mail a separate request? If so then: would you like to have it for $1 more?

    And on and on with every new feature which requires more requests than normal.
