Reddit is not some hero here. they want that data to sale, and market to their users, etc. They arent doing this to protect their users. Im not stating this wildly, there is a long history of abusive actions by reddit towards its users.
Take for instance the clip of the old ceo talking about how much private data reddit users share people they are SEMI anonymous on the platform. Meaning to a random person using reddit, if a reddit user posts, they dont have much of a way to tell who they are. reddit has more tools available to them to determine the identity of a user, so a person may make an anonymous account and talk about how they got revenge on a boss, or cheated or are addicted to gambling, whatever, and maybe they are signing in on the same computer as their main account, and maybe on their main account they’ve used their credit card or whatever.
Thats just a random example.
Point being, Reddit has a huge backlog of convos, and thats money, unless its devalued because anyone has access to it so there is no reason to pay reddit for it.
