Discussion Thread
I have left reddit for Voat due to years of admin mismanagement and preferential treatment for certain subreddits and users holding certain political and ideological views.
- YSK Reddit will soon eliminate third party apps by overcharging for their API and that means no escape from ads or content manipulation
-
Reddit may force Apollo dev and other third party clients to shut down
Oh true, I forgot about that myself. Looks like the repo is still available - https://github.com/voat/voat
-
📣 Had a call with Reddit to discuss pricing. Bad news for third-party apps, their announced pricing is close to Twitter's pricing, and Apollo would have to pay Reddit $20 million per year to keep running as-is.
What is the next reddit though? I tried to jump onto voat.co, but that was a POS. Mastadon isn't cutting it, and is more of a twitter alternative anyway. Maybe somebody virtualizes a bunch of PHPBB instances (one per community)? And copies all the old discussions over?

Whats the most ridiculous thing youve seen during the pandemic?
Yes. I had forgotten about the vaccine passports. I got mine from voat.co and printed it up and no one ever asked me for it except at a bar. The hospital I work for didn't ask me for it because they peeked at all employees' medical records.

There used to be this site called voat.co

Is there an Open Source version of Reddit?
The old Voat site was completely open source. https://github.com/voat/voat/tree/master

I want to thank this sub for everything.
I want to thank everyone on this sub, because you have been a very huge part of enlightening me with the Truth. I would visit r/conspiracy, r/The_Donald, 4chan, voat.co, Twitter, Gab, you name them. The most strong spirit of love, freedom, enlightenment, and Truth came from people on this sub, such as u/RMFN, polkadotgirl, peyotecayote, Obi Wan person, and many others who have been banned or just disappeared. If any of you are reading this, I want to say thank you.

Lemmy Release v0.12.0 🥳 . User and Community blocking, lean federation, and a whole lot more. Lemmy's a federated reddit alternative written in Rust.
/r/TheMotte was looking for a self-hosted Reddit alternative and Lemmy was in the cards, but it was decided against on the basis of the project's explicit ideological commitments. In the end they settled on Lotide + Hoot.

State of the Subreddit: Victims of Our Own Success
However, /r/GoldandBlack has been making their own plans - see here - and their approach, which I admit I'm kinda liking, is to start with a federated backbone (lotide, in their case) and build a new interface on top of it (which they're calling Hoot). This has the big advantage that a lot of communities could jump ship at once and form a sort of metacommunity, each running their own server but cross-accessible via federation, without any individual community being beholden to anyone else's rules.
- Coders: We would like more people to take a crack at the issues currently in place for Hoot (this subreddit's plan to replace Reddit). Once we get some of these taken care of, we can start moving a substantial amount of content OFF reddit and onto a platform WE control.
