But this isn’t just about the web view, is it?
My understanding is that they’re still hitting API endpoints.
What I’m getting at is that it’s theoretically possible to start locking down the APIs such that only Reddit’s own clients including the web view can continue to call those APIs.
Clients that are calling the unprotected endpoints would be forced to start circumventing the new API security, setting up an avenue for Reddit to go after such clients.
Getting rid of the web view isn’t necessary.
