Daily General Discussion - June 16, 2023
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).

Reddit CEO Steve Huffman: 'It's time we grow up and behave like an adult company'
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.

Popular Reddit client Apollo will shut down after talks over new developer fees got 'ugly,' with allegations of blackmail
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

Apollo Backend just made public, "The goal of making the code for this repo available is to show that despite statements otherwise by Reddit...
One codebase that could probably work is this one: https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit but there are others out there.

Apollo will close down on June 30th
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.

There is an archive of the reddit source code. It is still available
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

Reddit may force Apollo and third-party clients to shut down, asking for $20M per year API fee
People have even forked reddit already (don't know much about that site) : https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit

You already can, apart from some DHT and bootstrapping stuff.

I tried to like Jami, but it never worked right when I tried it. I didn't find a decent Android Tox client with video call, but it should work alright for text.

I'm designing a spy game and need an Anonymous Chat App that's easy to use.
Still, Tox still around and kicking 😎

Is there a privacy-friendly site to upload an image with someone that can be deleted later?
Options are limited. All modern messengers require trust in the company running the server they connect to. So the only way to eliminate needing that trust is to use a messenger that is peer 2 peer (no server). This is limiting though since no server means no offline messaging. I know of one messenger that is encrypted, anonymous (required no identifying info to sign up) and is peer 2 peer. tox.chat
