Reddit VS Reddit-Enhancement-Suite

Slashdot, reddit, and HN are similar in that the source code was available. For HN, as part of arc under the Artistic license. All 3 abandoned public source code releases.

While it would likely have zero overlap with the code in use today if you look at the old code Reddit used to publish for voting the model at that point used to have flags/checks for :

I've been trying to host my own instance of Reddit from archived source code on GitHub. Even though I am aware that's probably not a good idea since many dependencies are broken and there's practically no documentation on anything (and it's really old legacy code), but I still decided to give it a shot.

Shh, don't tell spez, the code is already available on the github https://github.com/reddit-archive/reddit/

Automod to act based on keywords/domains/etc., ideally using the same language/flags/regex/etc. of the original automod (old code) so that it's possible to use existing code. (For detecting off-topic posts, enforcing a title format, reminding the users to add missing details to post, filtering profanity, shadowbanning spammers, etc.)

Reddit pre enshittification is actually open source so spinning up your own Reddit instance should be trivially easy. I’m very surprised no one did this after the API protests started

There are already 1:1 reddit clones based on older versions of their software that was open source: https://github.com/reddit-archive/reddit

Reddit Enhancement Suite for Old Reddit on desktop. I dunno about mobile though since Apollo died

This makes sharing links easier.

Reddit Enhancement Suite

Have you tried old reddit with the RES extension? I'm not a fan of the way comments appear without the extension, but the extension boosts readability significantly. I can't stand reddit's design without it.

Not a setting but RES plus old reddit is fantastic.

It's a giant step backwards in site design. Discuit wastes an incredible amount of screen space in making the site look pretty. Scroll down a bit and you'll see that more than half of your screen is empty and there is very little submissions displayed. Look at https://old.reddit.com/ and see the difference between the two. (Or add Reddit Enhancement Suite https://redditenhancementsuite.com/ for an even better experience), Old Reddit is vastly better. People are not using Discuit, likely as a result of the site design.

Use RES and filter by keyword.

We prefer platforms that are integrated to RES like Youtube, Souncloud, Bandcamp, ...
