Reddit CEO Steve Huffman, aka u/spez, has doubled down on accusations against the developer of third-party app Apollo, Christian Selig, during an AMA session on the site. Huffman accused Selig of being “all over the place” and said he could not see Reddit working with him again. Selig has claimed that Reddit’s new API pricing would cost his app $20m per year, leading Selig and others such as Sync, RIF and Reddplanet to announce closure. Huffman confirmed that the company would not revise its API changes despite backlash. Community protests have been staged in thousands of subreddits.
