These statements are contradictory to me. You can't say you are charging what it costs and you are trying to only charge $1/user. Doesn't add up.

"What they didn’t like is the price, but the price is the price. It just happens to be expensive to run an app like Reddit.”

"Like we try to charge so it works out to about $1 per user per month for reasonable API usage”

Huffman is right, no one should subsidize a business for free. Weird though I can't seem to find the statement where Reddit announced that they are going to start paying moderator and content creators…
