LLM developers have no need for Reddit’s API: Reddit data is available through a variety of sources that don’t require usage of the API. The API they’re targeting are third-party clients used by humans. Apps like Apollo are the target. Reddit’s comment volume is high but not high enough to drive significant revenue if LLM developers were consuming comments via the API.
