Teddit - alternative Reddit front-end focused on privacy

@necrevistonnezr Ok, let's see....

K Kubernetes referenced this topic on

Okay, I learned how to integrate with redis with this package.
My first package version in gitlab is already running in my Cloudron instance
It still writes some cache data to the read-only filesystem. I have to find out how to change the cache directory.
-
@Kubernetes you should symlink it into /run instead. Something like this in Dockerfile:
RUN mv /app/code/static /app/code/static.original && ln -s /run/static /app/code/staticThen in start.sh:
mkdir -p /run/static rsync -avz /app/code/static.original/* /run/static -
@Kubernetes ah, awesome. Just move it to /run though. Anything in /app/data is backed up and this is just runtime/cache data (from what I can make out).
-
@girish I moved it to /run and it works fine now. thanks for the hint. It need some time to get used to all those patterns
btw: repo is updated

Teddit does not use the API.
Main repository at Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/teddit/teddit
From: teddit.net
A free and open source alternative Reddit front-end focused on privacy.
Inspired by the Nitter project.- No JavaScript or ads
- All requests go through the backend, client never talks to Reddit
- Prevents Reddit from tracking your IP or JavaScript fingerprint
- Unofficial API (RSS & JSON support, no rate limits or Reddit account required)
- Lightweight (teddit frontpage: ~30 HTTP requests with ~270 KB of data downloaded vs. Reddit frontpage: ~190 requests with ~24 MB)
- Self-hostable. Anyone can setup an instance. An instance can either use Reddit's API with or without OAuth (so Reddit API key is not necessarily needed).
-
Makes one wonder why all the API pricing fuss.
Still, I'd prefer a self-hosted reddit over this, but both are useful apps. Same for nitter and bibliogram, etc.

@robi well, itâs more a âviewerâ for reddit. You canât login or post or upvote but you can subscribe and save articles outside your reddit account. Thatâs why this was not an option for Apollo and the like.
I think for many thatâs exactly the level of âinteractionâ you wanna have with reddit after the shit they pulled in the last weeks⌠Use it as a knowledge base but donât add value to it. -

I think you already know Plebbit, which is a Free Software, distributed, self-hosted alternative to Reddit:
Privacy Redirect is a browser extension which greatly improves life by sending you to privacy-friendly instances for e.g. Reddit, Youtube, etc.

This is a good point. I think most users, maybe 90% on Reddit, lurk. All they need is something like Teddit. Reddit has become yet another anti-social corporation.

Fantastic, you rising star! I was hoping for this for some time and thank you very much for making it happen. I hope it won't be long until we see it in the main Cloudron suite of applications.

There is also LibReddit as a view-only reading app for Reddit
https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit
Might be easy to package -
Thanks very much for this. I am just looking at the documentation and quickly making a few notes which might help make using this easier for people who haven't tried using an application which is not yet officially supported on Cloudron. These notes are generally wrong, and should not be followed, but might be what a newbie might try doing.
cloudron-app-package
Package for deloyment of this app on CloudronTHIS IS ONLY A PROJECT TO MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO DEPLOY THIS APP ON CLOUDRON
To deploy it manually on Cloudron follow this instruction:
I think it would be good to start with stating that you need to take the image from its repo and put it onto your Cloudron's Operating System somehow, and explain how to do this.Say where: On your Operating System (e.g. Ubuntu) open a terminal and...
Build the docker Image:It might be good to mention navigating to a particular folder.
What goes into a terminal can be included in code brackets like this:
docker build -t APPNAME .docker build -t APPNAME .
Tag the docker Image:
With instructions like this, it is also helpful for people if they see a worked example. It can also help to mention where the image registry is. For example, is it on Gitlab, or my server, or... So you could include a line saying, "For example, if your Cloudron is called funnycats.com then type this:
docker tag APPNAME:latest https://funnycats.com/appnamedocker tag APPNAME:latest URL-OF-YOUR-IMAGE-REGISTRY/APPNAME
Push Image to registry:
It might help if it is briefly mentioned what this accomplishes.
docker push URL-OF-YOUR-IMAGE-REGISTRY/APPNAMEInstall image on your Cloudron Instance:
cloudron install --image URL-OF-YOUR-IMAGE-REGISTRY/APPNAME
