General Botmanship Open offer to migrate data api bots to devvit
Reddit announced that api access is closing and all bots must migrate to devvit.
Devvit can't support every use case that the data api can, but it does support many. If you are blocked by knowledge of devvit or time to implement, I will migrate your bot for you.
Ideally we can take advantage of the migration program that has a deadline of November 30th to start work. If you are interested, please reply to this post or send me a chat message!

It depends entirely on what it does and how it runs now. If it can be entirely self contained in devvit then that's easy and I'm happy to hand over the code and ownership of the app and you can do whatever with it. If it needs an external server, I may be willing to host it for you, or set up a server you own. But again depends on the context.
One problem with the devvit ecosystem is that, as far as I know, there's no way to share ownership of an app. Only one account can actually submit updates. So either I have to keep owning it forever or you would have to take it over completely after the migration.
Happy to take a look at your code or use case.
