    This is an early start.

    The next step would be to extract this code into a module that conforms with IService from the Everything SDK - like has been done with Lemmy https://github.com/everything-gripe/lemmy-for-everything - so that tildes can be accessed via the API or imported into a js project.

    I should also mention that this API is live now for anyone that would like to try it. The group endpoint is https://tildes.z.gripe/r/<group>/hot without the tilde.

    Hey, thanks for the call-out!

    I will definitely be keeping an eye on this project and would love to contribute as well.

    What are some possibile ways this can be multiplatform and framework agnostic? I'm thinking perhaps something built in Rust that can compile to to any language, and perhaps along with that we can collaborate on a spec for a simple scraper that we can implement across any framework using prexisiting scraping libraries.

    Discord? Really any method is fine. Feel free to dm me here, though I may not see it for a while due to lack of push notifications.

    There is potential to do this locally, but there's also the option to self-host.

    I'm open to working with any developer, with an existing Reddit app that would like to "port" it, or would like to build a new app with compatibility, so feel free to spread the word!

    Currently it's only able to be (optionally self) hosted, but if we get a decent node server up and running on Android it can be done on the device itself.

    I've been a Beeper user myself for probably a couple years now, so perhaps that's where the inspiration came from!

    What about AsteroidOS excites you? I have a compatible watch and am looking for a reason to try it.

    I currently switch off between the Urbane and the Wear24, they are both pretty much current in software and performance but will probably not get any more updates.

    I hear the LG Style can be had for a pretty great price nowadays, and it's a fairly recent watch.

    I haven't ever had a pebble but I have had multiple smart watches, the battery lives on most of the popular Android Wear watches last a couple days at most, which will probably not be much coming from a pebble watch. If you're willing to live with that, there are plenty of options to choose from, some cheaper than others.

    From an earlier reply. They don't often interview murderers to explain how murder is ok, they don't often interview self proclaimed racists to explain how racism is a good thing.

    I still think there's a difference between controversial and outright hateful, they don't give an interview to someone to let them just spew hatred, they interview someone who is controversial to share their views and outlook.
