Weren't Reddit complaining a couple of years ago that too many AI bots crawls were stressing their servers.

Doesn't the internet archive relieve that stress?

I think that was probably the real reason for the block, the Internet Archive is too functional, scalable and accessible of a service for reddit's lame excuses about needing to gatekeep access to the community created content on their website to not make reddit look totally stupid unless they came up with an excuse to block the Internet Archive.
