Pushshift API VS VeeSeeVSTRack

As an average user, you may not notice much difference in your browsing experience. For those using external moderation or accessibility tools, though Reddit has announced that tools/apps focusing on accessibility and moderation will not be negatively affected by the pricing changes, many of these tools are already provided by third-party apps that will be affected. Sites such as Unddit (for tracking post/comment edit history), which run on APIs like Pushshift, that are not quite covered under the vague criteria of being “legal, non-commercial, and helpful to mods,” are likely to no longer work as intended going forward.

Pushshift also supports other query parameters, such as specifying a time range using 'before' and 'after' or sorting the results by 'score', 'num_comments', etc. You can find the full list of query parameters in the Pushshift documentation: https://github.com/pushshift/api

The thing to look at is Pusshift: https://github.com/pushshift/api

Rule 3 says I can't link directly, but I can link to this. Pushshift is absolutely amazing for things like this. Just enter a url like http://api.pushshift.io/reddit/search/comment?q="\[START OF COMMENT TEXT]" and you should be able to find it quite easily.

In the meantime, the third party tool Pushshift can accomplish pretty much the same thing, just with some effort. It's a database of (almost) every comment and submission on Reddit, and you can filter the results based on things like the author and keywords in the body. You can write the queries yourself, but it's much easier to just use a webpage designed to make it easy. For example, if you wanted to find old KITTY pings, you could just enter "groupbot" in the author field, and "KITTY" in the "search term" of https://camas.unddit.com/. The result is this:

There is also VeeSeeVSTRack https://github.com/bsp2/VeeSeeVSTRack

Since some people don’t like the cathedral development style VCV rack uses, I point people to a fork of an older version of VCV rack with two features VCV rack 2 doesn’t have:

* It can run as a VST plugin, so one can use it with their favorite digital audio workstation (DAW)

* The code is BSD licensed

Here is that VST plugin fork: https://github.com/bsp2/VeeSeeVSTRack#downloads

Hete is an old VST port I found. Haven't used it in a while so I don't know if it's stable: https://github.com/bsp2/VeeSeeVSTRack

* The VST fork of VCVrack for a modular synth: https://github.com/bsp2/VeeSeeVSTRack#downloads

I would get a keyboard controller with full sized keys and a 5-pin DIN MIDI out for just over $200, but that can come later.

Again, I prefer the fork at https://github.com/bsp2/VeeSeeVSTRack#downloads because it’s a working VSTi, and because it’s under a BSD (not GPL) license, which has more flexibility in certain circumstances; I remember the arguments around 2001 or 2002 when there were concerns Python’s license was not “GPL compatible”, so I have always found GPL licenses pedantic.

Try vcvrack.com to get a handle on the basic principles.

I set up a drum beat and a pattern on a muted track to control this Eurorack simulator. https://vcvrack.com/

Since nobody else has mentioned it, you might want to try VCV Rack. It's a pretty good modular synth in software (bonus, it's free!). You can save and load complete patches, so it scratches that itch to recapture a complex configuration. Lots of good information in its dedicated subreddit.
