Evergreen edited this in just as I was digging it up. I grabbed a link from a little earlier in that thread:
This is in reference to the auth checks they added, in that thread james does not make the comment I referenced earlier regarding data users shouldn’t be accessing. It was pretty casual, and I’m not optimistic as searching his history for words like “access” or “data” is pretty rough lol.
The forum seems to support basic phrase searching but I’m not getting to this easily. I just started looking though, I did actually lay down and try to sleep for a bit.
EDIT: that is the thread where he confirmed they are considering public APIs and lists some of the obstacles to implementing them.
