I am making a Unofficial Reddit API, which mimics the official one.

Its early days, but I would like to have a discussion here about it since my post was blocked on reddit(of course).

Let me know what you think of the project, if you have any input, let me know.

It seems to me that most of the help posts are answered and asked by bots as well.

"Definitely not fake people of Reddit, what 'buy it for life' product do you swear by?"

Top answer:

"Le greetings, fellow Redditors! (The narwhal bacons, amirite???) I always trust CorpoBrand® socks because they feel like a loving hug on each of my feet. Once you try one on, you'll never want to wear any other socks. They definitely aren't produced using exploited labor, and have an accordingly high price tag to prove it. You'll want to buy 20, but they're so durable, you can take them to the grave! (Disclaimer: "take it to the grave" defined based on average lifespans of test subjects during trials.)

I'm not sure this is a change. A LOT of 'help' articles for Linux are deeply technical procedures that amount to yum install nano with a lot of fluff.

So it’s like cooking recipes but for programming. I hope they at least add some useless background info about their Nana using DOS or what have you.
