This is an interesting perspective, thanks. I of course would rather we have organic growth in the long-run, I just think in the short-term this could be good to add legitimacy to the space. It's very possible I'm wrong, but I guess that's up to every instance to decide for themselves.

Thinking about short term gains is why Reddit got rid of 3rd party apps. Short term gains mean nothing if the long term outlook is compromised.
