It's read-only.
That won't stop them from blocking once they notice. Years ago Hulu blocked a Hulu app on xbmc. It wasn't even like it bypassed ads. But every month they'd block and the developers had to make a work around. So it was one month working, one month not.
Personally I'm fine with never using reddit unless something comes up in a search or a post. It only prolongs switching to alternatives.
I feel like I need more and more "web transformers" or addons or "enhancers" that transform shitty website to make the web useful again. Since we can't rely on APIs and external apps in the future, maybe we could create an platform or an AI that helps with reprogramming various websites.
Besides social media I'd love to see this for shops and video streaming as well. Also reader view has been a godsend. Web is getting worse and worse.
