+### lurker
+
+lurker is a selfhostable, read-only reddit client. it is
+better than old-reddit because:
+
+- it renders well on mobile
+- it respects `prefers-color-scheme`
+- no account necessary to subscribe to subreddits
+- no account necessary for over-18 content
+
+i host a version for myself and a few friends. reach out to
+me if you would like an invite. 
+
+### features
+
+- minimal use of client-side javascript
+- account-based subscription system
+- pagination
+- invite-only user management
+- comment collapsing, jump-to-next/prev comment
+- "search on undelete" url for deleted comments
+- over-18, spoiler images are hidden by default
+
+i use lurker daily, and above features are pretty good for
+my use. i do not intend to add much more, i dont like
+writing js.

+
+### setup
+
+you can run lurker as a systemd service on nixos:
+
+```
+inputs.lurker.url= "git+https://git.peppe.rs/web/lurker";
+  .
+  .
+  .
+services.lurker = {
+  enable = true;
+  port = 9495;
+};
+```
+
+for non-nixos users:
+
+```
+bun run src/index.js 
+```
+
+### usage
+
+the instance is open to registrations when first started.
+you can head to /register and create an account. this
+account will be an admin account. you can click on your
+username at the top-right to view the dashboard and to
+invite other users to your instance. copy the link and send
+it to your friends!
+
+### technical
+
+lurker uses an sqlite db to store accounts, invites and
+subscriptions. it creates `lurker.db` in the current
+directory. there is no way to configure this right now.
+
+to hack on lurker:
+
+```
+nix shell .#        # get a devshell
+nix build .#lurker  # build the thing
+```
+
