apollo-backend VS Lemmy

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

Lemmy is like Reddit and here because it has threaded comment discussions.

It's also federated, so you can pick a server you like and have discussions with users from various servers together.

Some Reddit apps switched to supporting Lemmy instead when they were kicked off the API.

Seems functionally similar to Lemmy: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy

There was some talk back in June of migrating or setting up a parallel community on Lemmy. Did anything ever come of that? If not, would anyone be interested in helping set one up?

Because they are all different deployments of Lemmy [0]?

Local servers (dietpi, Freedombox, YUNoHost or similar solutions) which can be used to host different solarpunk content and setup instances on the fediverse (like peertube, mastodon, Lemmy etc.)

The entire page is based on Lemmy (https://join-lemmy.org/).

I disabled a ton of features and interface parts, as IMO the original lemmy interface is super noisy.

Runs on bare-metal with docker-compose. For the facelift, just good old CSS :)
