Makes me think that they want to profit off of AI training but can’t meaningfully differentiate between API use for AI and API use for third party apps. Solvable problem of course, but you gotta do the work.
If Reddit really wanted to not target 3rd party apps, they could do it, idk if they can see what kind of app are making the APIs calls, but they could’ve worked something with the 3rd party app devs, I’m not believing what they say.

That’s a legal issue, it doesn’t need a technical solution.
