Popular Reddit app Apollo might not be able to operate as is in the future due to planned API pricing that Reddit is implementing. Apollo developer Christian Selig was today told that Reddit plans to charge $12,000 for 50 million API requests. Last month, Apollo made seven billion requests, which would mean Selig would need to pay $1.7 million per month or $20 million per year to Reddit to keep the app running.

Appreciate boosts.https://t.co/FliuNCinpZ— Christian Selig (@ChristianSelig) May 31, 2023 The average Apollo user uses 344 requests per day, which would be priced at…
Macworld Apple’s higher-end iPads have used the universal USB-C connector port rather than Apple’s own Lightning connector since 2018. Now the iPad Air, iPad mini and even the 10th generation iPad feature the USB-C port instead of Lightning. In fact, the only iPad Apple sells without USB-C is the 9th generation iPad. The M1 iPad Pro uses the even more capable but identical-looking (and compatible to USB-C) Thunderbolt connection. What many people don’t realise is that the USB-C port is good for more than charging or plugging in wired earbuds. Apple’s tablets can also be used with other peripherals that transform it into a versatile computer. As such, iPad owners have a wide range of USB-C accessories available to them…

Macworld We’ve rounded up the best MagSafe and MagSafe-compatible chargers, from the plain to the multi-functional (up to six devices charged) and even the most colorful—from snap-on chargers and modular stands to a full desk mat. Apple’s MagSafe technology presents a more efficient way of wirelessly charging compatible iPhones.

MagSafe is supported by all models of iPhone 12/13/14. It allows certified and compatible accessories to magnetically clamp to the back of the iPhone, creating a strong and less wasteful connection. MagSafe charging can be twice as fast as standard Qi…
