fediverser VS ApolloPatcher

The developer from bird.makeup is asking for donations of account tokens: https://www.patreon.com/posts/call-for-special-98167212

I'm also thinking about adding twscrape support to my https://github.com/mushroomlabs/fediverser and extend its mirrors to Mastodon servers, but to be honest I can not afford (money- and time-wise) to get into yet-another project without at some minimal financial support.

It has been far from a stalemate. Reddit has won this battle, but the war is not over.

Saying that as someone been dedicating full-time since September to a project to help people migrate from Reddit to Lemmy [0], the truth is that there is simply no alternative yet for all the niche communities that are established there.

About a month ago, I posted here [1] about my project to try to make it easier to sign up and automatically discover/subscribe the Lemmy communities [2], but I wasn't expecting to have such a long tail of communities that need to be mapped out. The ~150 users that signed up to alien.top led to a discovery of about 6000 different subreddits.

I was doing the work of curation and creating alternative communities by hand, but I realized that was going to be an endless task. This is why I started working on a crowdsourced solution [3], which I launched last Friday

I see https://github.com/mushroomlabs/fediverser/issues/9 but I would be much more likely to use it if the oauth2 dance didn't ask for aggressive perms versus a "ask for all the perms then revoke them later"

> reddit redirect will randomly stop working

One of the goals from https://github.com/mushroomlabs/fediverser is to mirror reddit discussions into different Lemmy instances. This coming week I'm planning to work on the part that lets you connect your reddit account to a respective Lemmy instance and migrate your posts. Would you like to try it out?

You can very easily still sideload and use Apollo with a personal API key using this: - https://github.com/ichitaso/ApolloPatcher

Apollo still works perfectly if you sideload it: https://old.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/14nzii3/how_to_c...

It’s on the GitHub page I linked, I used this one and it was basically plug n play!

I've made an auto-updating Altstore source for ApolloPatcher ↗.

Also just other random FYI for people coming across this, I think as of this post the most current version (which fixes logouts, Imgur API, the share button, etc.) is the newest release on this GitHub: https://github.com/ichitaso/ApolloPatcher/releases/tag/v0.0.4

Okay, follow this https://github.com/ichitaso/ApolloPatcher/releases/tag/v0.0.4

Go here https://github.com/ichitaso/ApolloPatcher/releases/tag/v0.0.4 (its the same github user from the post, its not someone else, you can check it yourself) Just download "Apollo_1.15.11_mod_0.0.4.ipa" (105 mb) and sideload it with Sideloadly I did it myself and it works flawlessly.
