MODERATORS
The ads in the free version are rif ads, so that revenue would go to talklittle. That was one of the sour points of the API change; anyone utilizing the API aren't allowed to run their own ads. So not only was the new API absurdly expensive, but reddit was also blocking 3PA developers from getting any revenue outside of subscriptions
So Reddit is now getting nothing at all from RiF and the dev still gets ad revenue? Brilliant move
