Developer of third-party reddit client, Apollo for iOS states reddit is asking him for $20M to keep his API Access. What will you do if third party Reddit clients get shut down?
Considering that I only access reddit either occasionally from Relay on my phone or primarily modified version of the terminal TUI tuir (They killed the API token for TUIR, but you can still use it if you setup your own API key.) which I'm using now to write this comment from, it would likely reduce my Reddit usage by >90%. I usually have tuir nested in a tmux session, which I would likely change to a hackernews reader like hackernews-TUI.

Does anyone else not enjoy tweaking, and doing everything from CLI anymore after a few years of usage?
I absolutely still enjoy it after >35 years in IT. The CLI is pure, and does only what you ask it to. It isn't riddled with ads. While you can get things like Reddit or even Youtube from the CLI, they just aren't as distracting in that format and you end up getting more done.

Tuir Question
that said if you want a way of extracting the image urls, I have written a python script that does that and its on the gitlab issue I open for your exact question
-
do you reddit from the commandline?
I used rtv for Solène's "Old Computer Challenge" and it was passable. The project has gone fallow, supplanted by tuir, so that's where I'd turn today.

slick-greeter - A slick-looking LightDM greeter
rtv - Browse Reddit from your terminal
gruvbox-material - Gruvbox with Material Palette
