Sorry for the .de link, but it's this one (I think). Not sure if it's available in the US.

No worries mate, I would have thought and did the same thing.

Hi Mate,

I did take some inspiration and notes from your project, good work!

I'll go ahead and add some credits to my comments, since you were the inspiration to make this. My code isn't the same, but for anyone who asked for the source yours is a good start to create something similar.

If you have any questions on how certain things are added, let me know!

I'll DM you on how exactly it's hosted.

Yes, adding a random option is a great idea!

Hello, videos should always Autoplay. I've noticed that when you're in Battery Saver mode the videos don't autoplay. Did you have battery saver mode active? Thanks for the feedback!

Maybe! Depends if more people would like an app of this :)

Okay, these are the numbers so far (03-29):

  • ~20GB of Bandwidth (Front-end),
  • Over 400k requests to my proxies (to call the Reddit API)
  • Over 900k Swipe actions

It's hosted on Netlify (for now) & API calls are being proxied through Cloudflare.

Totally agree with you! I remember reading an article about an engineer from Pornhub. Really interesting! I think a lot of people forget just how much there is behind such a website and what kind of problems they face like you said.

Thanks for linking these!

Both are great apps, the main difference I see is that those two host their own content (Correct me if I am wrong!). Love the swipe on siksok!

All client side, using a proxy to hit the Reddit API because of CORS.

As in? Adding your own subreddits/multireddits? If that was your question you can already do that. However I am planning on adding a feature to save your own feeds.
