I was using it's APIs. But new restrictions have effectively been put in place that prevent me from using them for what I need. Similar API calls were being made that were causing DDOS attacks on lemmy.world.

As for running a lemmy instance itself. That's a thought but I need the data in a different format to do efficient searches. It's a tricky problem.
