> Neat. I wasn't aware that there's an endpoint you could use to retrieve JSON data without an API key. Call me naive but in fact I always thought that's what the apps were using.

I figured it might be using some backend service for storing some app metadata but I didn't realize it was needing to communicate with reddit using the app developer's account on my behalf.
