I'm building a speech to text API in TypeScript and I want to do the client SDK properly. Typed errors, clean method signatures, the whole thing. It's the kind of thing that's easy to rush and regret later so I'd rather have someone to think it through with.

The SDK would be the reference implementation. Other languages come after, handled by whoever knows those ecosystems. So getting the TS one right actually matters.

The rest of the project is a self hosted async server with a job queue. Not huge. Probably a few days start to finish.

If SDK design in TS sounds like something you'd enjoy, reply or DM me. Happy to share more details.

so I have this project I've been meaning to build. keeps getting pushed back because doing it alone feels like a drag. thought I'd post here first and see if anyone bites.

it's a speech to text API. self hosted, async, GPU backed, written in Bun. there's already something similar in Python but it doesn't really fit a TS ecosystem well so I want to rebuild the concept properly. the scope is pretty contained: the server, a TypeScript client SDK, a Docker image. other language clients are planned eventually but the TS one comes first and everything else waits on that.

realistically we're talking a few days of actual work. not a months long commitment. I just think it's more fun to build with people than alone, and I learn better that way too.

if you're comfortable with Bun and TS and want to ship something real, drop a comment or DM me. no bar on experience, I just want people who are genuinely interested.

I’m pretty new to Bluesky and was curious what desktop/mobile apps people are actually using these days.

Official app only? Graysky? Skeets? Anything else?

Interested in hearing what people settled on and what makes them stick with one client over another.

Hey everyone, quick question for people building with the Reddit API.

Are your apps still running these days? Has it been pretty stable for you, or has it gotten harder to keep things working?

I’ve seen a lot of mixed takes over the past year, so I’m curious what it actually looks like right now for people who are actively using it.

I’m asking because I’ve been thinking about building a tool that helps brands understand how their products are being talked about on Reddit, kind of like a sentiment or reputation dashboard. Just trying to get a realistic sense of what’s possible with the API today.

Would really appreciate hearing about your experience.
