saidit VS redditPostArchiver

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).

And while the content of the site is kind of... well, despicable and kinda fucked up, this project: https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit has made tons of fixes and improvements to the code itself going forward, so there's one source of fixes/improvements to draw from, as well as a few other active forks.

In fact one site I found a repo for has done so and has made many fixes/improvements to that code -> https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit

One codebase that could probably work is this one: https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit but there are others out there.

Why not point Apollo at a Reddit alternative, or use the open-source code for Reddit (or code like this https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit) instead of shutting it down?

If Apollo's users (or a good percentage of them) moved over to an alternative platform, that would be poetic justice, at least.

saidit went down this path, and it was indeed a nightmare. what reddit had posted publicly was unusable and misleading, effectively token open source. if anyone is brave enough to try, they should check for fixes here: https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit

People have even forked reddit already (don't know much about that site) : https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit
