In no way is Reddit responsible for providing 3rd party API access.
A big part of the frustration for me is them pretending like they are still doing the right thing by continuing to provide it. When in reality it is simply not affordable

Agree completely! Reddit has never been in the business of ‘doing the right thing’ and these API fees are clearly designed to discourage third-party developers. Reddit leadership do not seem to understand what drives the value of their own product and have badly misread both their short- and long-term futures, so the experiment will likely end in failure.
For sure, I completely agree
