> Apollo has had since April to figure out a new billing model - but sat on their hands hoping whatever Reddit came up with could be afforded with their existing $10 per year per user model. Say it out loud - it's absurd.

Just stop.

You’ve been told multiple times, by multiple people, that this was not the case.

You’ve been provided the timeline, which you refuse to acknowledge.

You very well know that he was not provided the pricing until 8 days ago.

At this point, you continuing to say this is just being disingenuous and talking in bad faith.

What, exactly, are you getting out of this? Is unreasonably placing the blame on a single developer your way of getting your rocks off?

Are we reading the same information? There is not one thing I've said that is not in the linked post, or any of the previous posts regarding this topic.

You may want to believe and be sympathetic toward Apollo - fine.

That doesn't change the circumstances nor realities. Apollo screwed up, and is now throwing in the towel. It's really hard to be sympathetic towards a business operator that's made a series of bad choices and now is playing the victim card and shutting down.

You have constantly pushed a reframed timeline that isn’t actually indicative of reality. You have been told multiple times why. You have ignored multiple different things that Reddit has done in an effort to shift the blame entirely onto the Apollo dev.

You’re the only one who is finding it hard, and your constant push to shift the blame off of a massive corporation and onto a developer is frankly weird.

Re-evaluate your life choices if you truly believe this, but it’s clear you are the extreme minority here.
