PeerTube API

Read PeerTube — the federated, open-source video network — in real time, with no key. Federated search (powered by SepiaSearch) finds videos, channels and playlists across thousands of PeerTube instances at once. Per instance you can list and sort videos, fetch any video's detail, its comment threads and subtitle/caption tracks, look up any channel or account and their videos, and read the instance config, server statistics and the video-category list. Federated handles (name@instance) resolve transparently, and you can point any per-instance call at a specific server with ?instance=<host> (default framatube.org). Every call is live (no cache) and returns the upstream PeerTube REST shape, paginated with limit + start. 14 endpoints. Built for federated video discovery, creator and channel analytics, and content aggregation. A PeerTube (federated video) data API — distinct from single-platform video APIs like YouTube or Dailymotion. No upstream key, no cache.

Lemmy API

Read Lemmy and the wider fediverse link-aggregator network (the federated Reddit alternative) in real time — across any instance, no login or key. Browse communities (with sort and listing-type filters) and any community's detail with its moderators and subscriber counts. Pull posts by community or instance-wide with Hot/Top/New/Active sorts, fetch any post and its threaded comments, and read instance-wide comment streams. Look up any user's profile with their posts and comments, run unified search over posts, comments, communities, users and URLs, resolve any federated object by its URL, list an instance's federated/allowed/blocked peers, and read the public moderation log. Pass ?instance=<host> to query any Lemmy server (default lemmy.world); every call is live (no cache) and returns the upstream Lemmy v3 shape, paginated with page + limit. Built for fediverse social listening, community and content aggregation, and moderation/analytics back-ends. A Lemmy/fediverse aggregator API — distinct from microblogging (mastodon, bluesky). No upstream key, no cache.

Mastodon API

Read Mastodon and the wider fediverse in real time — across any instance, no login or app token required. Look up any account by handle (user, @user or user@instance) and pull its posts, followers, following and featured tags. Fetch any post with its full reply thread, see who boosted or favourited it, and read a post's edit history. Run unified search over accounts, posts and hashtags; browse a hashtag timeline; and surface what's hot via trending posts, hashtags and links. Inspect any instance: its metadata (users, version, rules), federated peers, weekly activity and the public profile directory, plus poll results by id. Pass ?instance=<host> to target any Mastodon server (default mastodon.social); every call is live (no cache) and returns the upstream Mastodon REST shape unchanged. 21 endpoints — broader than the typical Mastodon wrapper. Built for fediverse social listening, account and follower analysis, content aggregation and bot back-ends. No upstream key, no cache.
