why haven't they served ads via the API then? no one is stopping them.
they haven't done so because they have chosen not to. they are still choosing not to.
this is a calculated move by reddit to extract the highest amount of money possible from 3rd party app developers, and the users of these apps are who is going to suffer. reddit waited until API use was counted on by some portion of its users before they pulled this lever. it's predatory.
