I've long suspected this is the case. Even Facebook publishes reports saying their platform is rife with paid corporate shills and government agencies pushing agendas and Reddit appears to be no different. I mean you can even test this by posting about a competing product and watch as they all come out to downvote you to oblivion and trash everything about it.

I don't know if you've seen the official phone app for Reddit but its an even worse version of that. There's no "hot" etc of your subscribed subs, rather it's now a firehose of whatever the algorithm thinks will piss you off enough to interact more with it.

You see this happening on Reddit now when anyone mentions the Fediverse at all. Plenty of replies comparing it to NFTs and other junk from dipshits who will come flocking over to this especially if the stuff Meta is doing takes off.

Thanks for that, good to see its being worked on. I mostly just wanted to make sure I didn't misunderstand the docs and some of that functionality had been added already and/or the docs were just not updated.

Sure but the API documentation doesn't have POST options at all, only gets. Are you saying that it has more options than what is in the docs if you self host it?

I noticed they have a phone too, is it any good?

I'd consider advertising to help pay for it at least tbh.

The difference is that you can just sub to them all easily and get all their content. It's much harder on the Fediverse because you need to go to a lot more effort to do so and there is a lot of junk communities with few posts out there.

Now if there was a clean, easy and fast way to sift though all the crud across multiple servers at once that would make a huge difference.
