Reddit sells NFTs (avatars) that could easily make them more (from a percentage of each transaction) than what they're asking for API access, if they just required 3rd party apps to include them, which wouldn't have generated barely any backlash. But it's their loss, and if we get a federated alternative in the process... then so be it.
