Some users wonder if the dev will be charged for having it still up, others argue Reddit can’t charge him without having signed a contract. Everyone is confused as to why the API change hasn’t made it inoperable.

Why is Boost still working?

    Relay is also still working and the developer (dBrandy) plans a subscription model

      I doubt any of these third party apps are going to recoup the named API cost with so many people fleeing reddit. Seems like a big gamble to me. Maybe Relay re-negotiated the price.

      I wonder if they just high balled, expecting app creators to negotiate them down instead of taking the offer public and burning things to the ground.
