Nah, that only happens when the parent company as enough money and power to setup those kind of deals. If Reddit is doing as poorly as they claim ("3rd party apps are profitable, we aren't"), they'll never have enough money and influence to become a built in app.

Why? Samsung/verizon/att/etc are not preinstalling the facebook or tiktok malware because they actually think "people will appreciate this", but because they're getting paid for it.

It's impossible that reddit will pay the hundreds of millions of dollars required to do this, they shut down the API as it was "unsustainable" while costing them just 10 million dolllars (and imho much less than that)

Friendly reminder that Facebook is how entire countries access the internet.
