Reddit
Reddit is a social news aggregation, discussion, and community platform where users submit, vote, and comment on content organized into topic-based communities called subreddits.

The Reddit Ads API enables programmatic management of advertising campaigns, audiences, and conversion tracking. All API access requires OAuth 2.0 authentication via the oauth.reddit.com server at 60 requests per minute.
Reddit publishes 11 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Account API, Flair API, Links & Comments API, and 8 more. Tagged areas include Advertising, Communities, Content, Social-Media, and Social News.
The Reddit catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.
Reddit’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, support, signup flow, and 22 more developer resources.
