Reddit faces content quality concerns after its Great Mod Purge

Daily General Discussion - June 16, 2023
For Reddit alternatives, it looks like https://saidit.net/ (https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit) and https://phuks.co/ (https://github.com/Phuks-co/throat) could be viable alternatives. They're open source, have the UX features we desire (threaded, voting, sorting, collapsing).

Subreddit with almost 2M subs tries to migrate to custom platform
> On another note, I do not understand why all these banned subreddits that try to migrate to their own site always try to create their own software.
Not all. The admins of Ovarit [1] decided to use Throat [2] rather than roll their own from scratch. By all accounts, it's working very well for them.

Best open-source Reddit software?
I just checked and Ruqqus is licensed under LGPL, the way I understand it is you can use LGPL software as-is alongisde other software without open sourcing the other software, however if you make changes to the LGPL software then you need to open source those changes... Scored might very well be a modified version of the Ruqqus codebase, which in that case means it's violating the LGPL license.

Kaashi.org claims to be “open-source” without providing any source code. That’s because they stole everything from Ruqqus.com’s GitHub repository and couldn’t even be bothered changing stuff
The website claims to be open source, because it has to be as it’s using Ruqqus’ source code. However they try to hide all references to this and even fail to stay under the source code’s LGPL 2.1 license which states the source code must remain open.

I missed the hype train that was Ruqqus and can no longer access the website. Are there any Reddit Alternatives that are utilising the Ruqqus codebase?
you can visit https://github.com/ruqqus/ruqqus and with a bit of time and money you can spin up your own

those SJW rules the automod gives are pretty cringe man
i don't need censorship because i know that my beliefs are correct. the reason bigots get deplatformed is because there is simply no good reason to have them around. they poison any community they infiltrate. even ruqqus a reddit alternative advertised as censorship-free realized that there is no good to platforming bigots even if you call yourself a free speech platform.
