Yes, It's hard to think of a developer putting much effort into anything involving the Reddit API at this point. Interestingly, Twitter went through a phase where they killed off any and all 3rd party enhancements but they just recently seem to be reversing policy to encourage more participation (within limits) with a new API V2 released in July. But Reddit's value is in the huge long tail collection of micro-interest subs built up over the years so it would be a shame for wall street to come in and mess things up over a few short quarters as they tend to do. I'm not even annoyed by advertising - Reddit is one of the few places where super specific targeting may actually work - it's just their native user interfaces are so unusabley bad. Maybe we will go back to Usenet Groups.
