I have no idea why it’s taken me so long, but I’ve “discovered” #Redlib as a way to view #Reddit without all of the cruft. #selfhosted of course. https://www.macklin.co/redlib-reddit/
You can use Redlib to create an #RSS feed, which you can process in #Huginn to create a new version of the feed that includes the comments as well as the original post. Just right for using in your favourite rss news reader. https://www.macklin.co/redlib-via-huginn/
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.
Rules:
Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.

Too bad it keeps getting blocked by reddit
Interesting use case. I made the jump from teddit -> redlib last week after the API adjustments
I do the same with the activitypub subscriptions, as well as grabbing regular RSS feeds & notifications. I pretty much only need one app to keep up with all of my news - & can “click though” to interact in the real app/website if i have something to contribute
Can you elaborate on the AT subscriptions?
AT? These might be what you’re looking for https://www.macklin.co/rss-feeds/ https://www.macklin.co/huginn-rss-website-image-feed/ You can filter the feed before you generate the output, of course.

FYI hashtags look odd on lemmy
#really! 🫢 Combination of force of habit & search optimisation. I agree though, they do look odd
Oh this could be interesting… Reading #Reddit in #friendica
I’ve added a couple of bits to the “code” so that there are links to the reddit & redlib sites in case the comments are interesting but pulled into the feed too soon in the conversation. Also the option to use “credentials” as a way to set the server address as a variable.
