Not sure how that will affect libreddit or teddit. That’d would prevent me to get some news on specific channels, which when interesting enough, I brought to lemmy, :)

They would need to make their webpage only accessible with a login, or try to obfuscate it as hard as Instagram does, otherwise 3rd-party devs will scrape that. And that would hurt their discoverability massively.
I mean, it does have the same self-destructive energy as closing up your API, so I’m not saying they won’t do it, but it would be stupid.
