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.

Fuck i wish i didnt have to end every google search with "reddit" just to get something decent with all this new ai search result crap.

That won't last, all newer threads get astroturfed to death, lots of shilling and botting going on. Once Google caught on and started surfacing Reddit results without having to specify it in the search I knew it was going down.

And the worst part is that lemmy isn't great to search due to its federated nature.
