This is probably going to kill Libreddit, a light web front end for Reddit I'm a maintainer for. The first major FOSS project that I'm a major contributor for might be killed off :'(

- DaSHacka 3y agoIs there any reason libreddit couldn't eventually become more like nitter, scraping web results from the site instead of using an official API?
- sodality2 3y agoIt could, but that would be a cat-and-mouse game. (Rate limits, bot checks, cloudflare, etc) If it's not too tedious I'm definitely going to consider changing it to that.
- cyanydeez 3y agoI always assumed the internet was headed for a meta layer where browsers act to create a wiki like community on top of the content and users become a global out of band force that attach forums, edits, changes out of band. This would democratize any new site and content would be more valuable that user lockins. With AI, this might be closer to possible. The trick is find reliable content to anchor to arbitrary configuration of pages.
