apollo-backend VS TwitchAdSolutions

I believe this endpoint is the only way to retrieve json with posts from Reddit, so every single app would use it. Even Apollo used it, although it did it with OAuth. See this line:

Disclaimer: it's been quite a while since I've last looked into Reddit API, so I could easily be wrong.

I'd consider platform and infra tools the kind of projects that require DSA. As for product, this is the typical kind of projects I've worked on: https://github.com/christianselig/apollo-backend which doesn't have any LC stuff. But I get that things are very different in big tech / FAANGS.

Since Apollo’s backend server is now open sourced, it'd be great if we could install the server on a Raspberry Pi or something so one can get notifications and other features that rely on it.

5. Apollo Backend: - Set up an Apollo backend server using a community-driven platform like https://github.com/christianselig/apollo-backend. - Design and implement the backend infrastructure for SecurIoT, including data storage, authentication, and API endpoints. - Integrate the backend with the frontend components of SecurIoT. - Thoroughly test the backend functionality, ensuring it supports the required operations and scalability.

The Backend was open sourced to counter U/spez Bullshit arguments about inefficient code creating too many API requests

On this same call, Huffman claimed that Apollo employed "scraping", a technique of programmatically fetching a webpage to process its contents.[d] Scraping is largely considered bad practice in web resource development, as it is not using resources as they were intended, and can be costly to the party being scraped. This is especially true when the same data is available via an API (Application Programming Interface), which is the intended method of programmatically fetching website content. Christian refutes Huffman's accusation, and has open-sourced Apollo's server code to prove it does not scrape reddit. I have seen no credible claims or evidence that Huffman is correct.

You could totally do everything you want to, except it's not as simple as making Reddit API requests because there's this: https://github.com/christianselig/apollo-backend

There are tampermonkey script(s) and ublock filter scripts that swap out the advert video with the live broadcast video (but in low res) - i have lived with that for now, esp. since i watch esports on twitch, and it sucks that i would have missed key moments of a game when an ad plays during it!

There's several ones listed here : https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions

I use the scripts (https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions#scripts) instead of the proxy solution, as i dont want to rely on a third party server to be working.

I run ads before the broadcast starts on a 5 minute "starting soon" stream" and encourage viewers to block ads with an !ads command. Look here: https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions

Is there a new solution to block ads, I used this method https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions but now it no longer works is there another work around?

Actually the modern vaft script can completely bypass ads and has seen minimal changes for well over a year. Twitch gave up because most people, even the tech savvy ones, don't know about the solutions anymore.
