        I mean, if they were to adopt ActivityPub and enable federation, you can pretty much guarantee they’d slap ads next to content pulled in from FOSS instances. Kinda their thing.

      Reddit federating would provide us with a much better API for 3rd partys. It would be the walk back of the century.
