I want to make a bot to crosspost most voted news/links from Reddit. I’m interested in crypto and economics. It will be allowed?

Yeah, the changes in the API and the official Reddit client are the main reasons to use Lemmy for me. I’m thinking in scrapping the HTML version but I didn’t try yet.
They’re trying to combat web scraping with rate limits. It might be VERY slow. Doesn’t hurt to try though.
If scraping is slow, doesn’t that mean browsing reddit will also be slow?
That’s incorrect. You can request a free API key that’s limited to 100 calls per minute per app.
@kiwifoxtrot @Veritas assuming you already had a key, I’ve heard people are waiting months for dev approval even before it hit the fan
