## Status
|
||||
|
||||
Usable. Should you run into a `HTTP 500 Internal Server Error`, please
|
||||
file a bug report with the URL of the post you were trying to read and
|
||||
the git commit hash of the build. Git commit hash can be obtained from
|
||||
[/api/v1/meta/build](https://libmedium.batsense.net/api/v1/meta/build).
|
||||
|
||||
This proxy works by interacting with Medium's undocumented(probably
|
||||
private but unauthenticated) API. So I've had to make assumptions and
|
||||
tweak API schematics as I run into errors.
|
||||
|
||||
## Features
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] proxy images
|
||||
- [x] proxy GitHub gists
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
- [ ] user pages(WIP)
|
||||
- [ ] RSS feeds
|
||||
|
||||
## Why?
|
||||
|
||||
Knowledge is the true wealth of humanity. If it weren't for our
|
||||
ancestors, who chose to pass down their knowledge and experiences, we
|
||||
would still be a primitive species. Whatever advancement that we as
|
||||
a species have achieved is because we chose to share information.
|
||||
|
||||
To put a paywall on knowledge like that is both obscene and goes against
|
||||
the very nature of humanity.
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to run a sustainable publication business while still
|
||||
respecting freedom. [LWN.net](https://lwn.net) is one of my favourite
|
||||
publications that has been around forever. So it is possible. I hope
|
||||
medium.com comes up with other, non-harmful ways to run a sustainable
|
||||
business.
