Unofficial Reddit API (github.com)

I am making a Unofficial Reddit API, which mimics the official one.

Its early days, but I would like to have a discussion here about it since my post was blocked on reddit(of course).

Let me know what you think of the project, if you have any input, let me know.

Just leave that network behind

Take heed at the tale of Gary Bowser. Don’t engage in fan projects

No.

Why would you lose time with reddit?

Pretty cool of you to do this! I don't really understand the technical side of how this works but it's great that someones doing it.

Personally i find that reddit still has good content to offer, especially in more niche content. Sure anything on r/all is 90% bots but other stuff isn't.

Good luck

I have no idea about coding and such. However? It is a cool idea and would be fun to use Apollo again (if that’s possible).

I really like Lemmy but some of the subreddits are not in here. Or they are but empty/ death.

You can still use Apollo with your private API key.

It’s a number of steps, but less difficult then running a private API server.

You can find variations for altstore, side store, etc: https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/16naxdo/how_to_install_apollo_via_altstore/

I’ll look into that! I’m a bit wary of trying these things on iPhone though.

Why?

Don't.
