I’m using Power Delete Suite to overwrite then nuke all my old content. peace out reddit.

Seems like scraping and providing an alternative API would violate TOS and will receive a takedown notice in due time.

You don't need to agree to TOS to scrape a public website, what they write in it is moot.

Reddit may not be a public website for long. They push their app and ask for logging in so often, it wouldn’t surprise me if they shut off parts of the site for not logged in users.

True, though that will seriously hurt their SEO.

They can still ban your service, e.g. block your IPs. Sure, you could then play a cat and mouse game with them, but your API clone going down every few days will make it unusable for anyone with a real purpose. The companies that reddit (officially) wants to target, e.g. OpenAI et al., have no problem scraping.

You can just host on Gcloud and report as GoogleBot, good luck with that. There's also plenty of proxy services.

Indeed, on their case they just need the datasets anyways

Wasn't there a recent SCOTUS case that upheld the need to follow TOS?

Ooof, the price point on this is killer ($3500). Will need to have some major differentiating features to justify that pricing compared to a Quest 3.

I know they are fundamentally different (Quest having roots in VR but also enabling passthrough AR and Vision Pro focusing on AR ala Microsoft HoloLens) but hard to chew on that price!
