Reddit should make an API feature to allow the 3rd party app, the ability to display the ads. Then, Reddit will do profit sharing of each ad shown. This would give the 3rd party app incentive to maintain the app.

Why would they do that when they could just fully control access with their app and not have to worry about ensuring other clients show ads?
