You overestimate how tech-savvy an average user is (by a huge margin).
No one knows what an API is in real world. And no one is willing to pay just because they sees more than 100 images on r/funny in a short period.
By "no one" I meant that kind of userbase is so small that if you design your site around them you can say goodbye to IPO.

The average reddit user wouldn’t care or know so they would just use the normal reddit app with all its tracking and ads or whatever, which is what reddit wants right now anyway.
