“That’s also the reason that for initial content I have decided to add Reddit content through scraping.” This is not okay. Your project is a good idea, I think, but what you mention above and literal content theft, not even trying to get consent to use someone else’s content to promote your own product, is extremely bad faith despite you convincing yourself otherwise. Why not just publish the code and let someone clone and host it if you care so little about taking it further? Sell the domain? Why taint it with stolen content by individuals that have no clue your site exists? |

As for your first comment, the information is public, and I serve the people posting a question for help by spreading their question on more places. Feedback by Reddit users have all confirmed to like this approach as wel. That is sincerely how I have approached it, not even thinking of crossing legal issues (which it isn’t, at least not according to European laws).
Your idea of publishing the code gave a an idea. I am currently looking for people to contribute to help maintaining it. Got some response by people so who knows!
