Which endpoints most projects use
Most integrations are read-heavy, so the 11 GET endpoints at $0.002 do the bulk of the work: pulling posts and comments, resolving users, running search, and listing communities. Writes, votes, and direct messages are there when you need them, priced higher because they act on Reddit rather than just read it. See the per-call math on how much the Reddit API costs and the full tiers on the pricing page.
