I hate it but to watch goal highlights I often find myself visiting R****t. They are usually the top upvoted posts. How can we get goals highlights more consistently in Lemmy?

    We need somebody who records them and posts them otherwise we must simply copy the urls from Reddit lol

      It would be more lively in my opinion. It would start conversations about goals, teams and players

    check out https://goals.zone

    The site get the links from Reddit and present the goal highlights under matches.

    Edit: goal.zone to goals.zone

        This is the text from the about dialog of the site.

        goals.zone automatically fetches latest posts from /r/soccer subreddit that contains videos of goals and that correspond to a football match. This is a series of Open Source projects, and the code is available on

        goals.zone goals.zone-fe

        You can reach me at andre@meneses.pt

        ~Not sofascore but Reddit.~

        Edit: strikeout the last sentence.

    I was trying to find an alternative yesterday. A bot used to post the goals here which was nice.

    I was thinking of putting together a bot that would follow some of the uploaders on r*** and post their links here, but then again it’s kind of a lot of work and with the reddit api changes I would have to work around with some parsing that’s not the best, though doable

    I will be working on a bot that will at least post match-threads when I find the time, though I am kinda busy so who knows when that will be.

      I do remember seeing an API that could provide highlights as a link for free
