ELI5 why google won't pull reddit on youtube API?

[–] AnActOfCreation@programming.dev 26 points 4 months ago (4 children)

YouTube already has ToS on their API and has paid tiers. But a lot (most?) of the third-party apps and tools bypass the API and directly scrape the site.

So why aren't there reddit apps that do the same?

Geddit is one.
