This is really great, and surprisingly fast (images seem to load much faster than on Reddit, at least for me). Can you share more info about how/where it's hosted and the stack used (besides angular)?
Awesome experience, but I do wish you could do some level of sorting.
Seems to not pick up the images hosted directly by Reddit under their i.reddit.com url.
Ooh, it's like Panoptikos but supports HTTPS. It would be cool if gif autoplay was an option.
Cool idea, but it'd be nice to be able to click on an image to take you back to the comments page for it.
I hate to be a downer, and I really like what you've made... You're currently breaking the Reddit API access rules. In order to follow the rules, you would need to name your app "Grid for Reddit" or something along those lines. https://www.reddit.com/wiki/api Edit: I'm not sure how the API rules play out if you're not using the API directly (like tacking on the json parameter), so maybe you're ok?
Aside from a general PSA, who cares? Here are the TOS https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSezNdDNK1-P8mspSbmt... the consequences are basically limited to them disabling API access until compliance is restored. Rules don't exist if there aren't consequences.
It just really isn't that difficult for people to respect trademarks: we should not have sympathy for violations that are this blatant. HN should really not even be leaving it up, and they could themselves be served with notice (and yes: I realize that YCombinator invested in reddit; the result would just be some request in the backend); their strong and intrusive content moderation policy means they don't have any argument that "this was just user information".
(And if anyone from reddit is digging for examples of consumer confusion: when I saw "Reddit Grid" as I scrolled by, I absolutely had a first reaction of "oh, reddit is releasing a new feature to improve browsing? cool!" before remembering "oh yeah, people tend to be shitty about respecting trademarks, so watch this just be someone who wanted that official-sounding connotation".)
