I'm curious what this does to libreddit and teddit. Teddit has said as of a month ago they'll go to HTML scraping. Libreddit I think is still waiting to see. But then there is the question of why reward that ecosystem by staying in it? Unfortunately (at least for replacing Twitter and Reddit) as we saw with Twitter and Mastodon I don't see a fediverse site gaining dominance over Reddit, mostly due to the fediverse's very nature of decentralization. So it would be nice to have open source alternatives through the above services.
