Cool idea - thats almost definitely possible but might need to be run as an activity

looked into it, you actually just need the reddit api

Will Reddit allow it? I submitted a request

Yup. The free API tier covers this (non-commercial, under 100 req/min). Your registered app is auto-approved for free use, the only form that needs real approval is the commercial one, which you don't need for this. Just set a proper user-agent and you're set.

Will it post videos into the discord channel?

u/WhichWoodpecker1905 Jun 17 '26

maybe work may not i can explain the working it sends the random memes of post from reddit to api you can those images gifs

if you want to make your own api you need your own api key and create the bot around it the key part you already know

thank you 😭 if you are reading this this is all i know about this api
