Reddit has an agreement with Google, only G is officially allowed to scrape reddit's content.

I believe they have agreements with both OpenAI and Google. That's why Claude does not source Reddit but GPT does.

So atp Discord is opening their public servers, enabling Google to show results from there, and reddit is closing theirs? :D
However, I don't see this working against scrapers- it feels like scraping Reddit through unauthorized commercial APIs has only gotten cheaper since they introduced the first restrictions.
