In practice

One Lemmy call

Lemmy posts matching a query on a Lemmy server (lemmy.world unless you name another): title, author, community, score, comment count, text and link. Up to 50 per page; page on with `cursor`. About 2.3 million posts per credit. Values are illustrative.

What it returns

Lemmy as typed JSON

Every call answers the same way: the endpoint, the page it read, what it cost and the data, in a documented shape. Nothing to parse.

  • Search posts, or one community’s
  • Title, score, comment count, text, link
  • Any Lemmy server
  • Cursor paging

Pricing

Every endpoint, one balance

One credit costs $3.50: each call spends credits in proportion to the data it moves, and a page we could not read costs nothing. Items per credit are typical.
