Reddit definitely has better features. It’s not even a competition. The reason we’re here is because of the Reddit administration and because of future potential. Eg, the apps are so new right now that Reddit’s official app is better. But in a couple of months, that won’t be the case anymore.

Yeah. The unethical bots will just use scrapers, as they already do for the many websites that don’t offer APIs. They’re already violating ToS, so they don’t care. Ethical ones won’t have that option (at least not past the fairly low quota).
