Das Schulmotto lautet „denken wagen“.

Geht mir genau so.

The one thing that takes a bit to get used to is the borrow checker. Advice there is don’t fight it. Trust the compiler to tell you your code is wrong. Once you understand the ownership/borrowing rules, it’s honestly just a joy to code in. Static typing protects you from the inevitable mess that every large python project becomes, and the borrow checker gives you the comfort and safety you’ve come to expect from memory safe languages without the overhead of a garbage collector.

Still working on this, help is welcome :)

Also BMW/die Quandts enteignen? Ich wäre dafür zu haben…

Uneingeloggt bekomme ich auf YouTube häufig Jordan Peterson oder ähnlichen Schrott vorgeschlagen. Die Tech-Konzerne radikalisieren Kinder und Jugendliche um Klicks zu generieren.

Ganz schlechte Quelle. Rechte christliche Fundamentalisten die auf die rechtsextreme “Junge Freiheit” verlinkten. Nur so als Einordnung.

Unfortunately, Apollo is not open source and would require action from the dev, which seems not that likely. Another complication is that they seem to be using their own backend to do some kind of caching, I haven’t really looked into it.

The reason I want to build this kind of proxy is that any app would be able to use it with minimal changes (configurable API server). For proprietary apps, you’re still at the mercy of the devs, but their work is greatly simplified. For open source apps such as e.g. RedReader, Infinity, anyone could make those changes. Another thing that it might be useful for is bots and the like. If I manage to implement support for posting, those could work on Lemmy as well. I personally would like to see the return of kg2bee.

Since boost isn’t open source, the dev would have to allow you to configure the API endpoint (so the app would connect to the proxy instead of reddit.com), or someone would have to hack the app, which would probably be somewhat difficult.

An API proxy to allow 3rd party reddit clients to browse Lemmy with only minimal code changes. I’ve got it showing comments now :) Source isn’t uploaded yet, but it will be soon.
