1. Don't use a real person's photo on your homepage. That's tacky and illegal. She didn't consent to be part of your marketing.
2. Does it use the reddit API as a backend? Like your app would be a different UI for those subreddits?
3. If you're not using reddit as a backend, how will you prevent abuse?

This is the real head scratcher whether it’s building it from scratch or using Reddit’s API. I don’t condone cyber bullying but with an idea like this, it seems inevitable. Probably use a combination of verification for posts (hold up a sign with username) and agreeing to some form of TOS. For the comments, it would be a bit harder to contain. But maybe some form of reporting and three strike rule. Still need more time to think on the abuse policy.
