Advice Slip vs Dev.to

Advice Slip returns a single short, sometimes humorously literal, piece of advice as JSON — either a random slip or a specific one by its numeric ID. A live GET against the real host, api.adviceslip.com, redirected to HTTPS and returned genuine JSON while carrying Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, resolving cors unknown -> yes; no key was required, reconfirming auth None. A fully free, keyless novelty API — pricingModel free.

Dev.to's API (built on the open-source Forem platform) exposes articles, users, comments and other community content as JSON, with most read endpoints open to the public and write/user-scoped endpoints requiring a key. A live GET against the real gateway, dev.to/api/articles, returned genuine article JSON while carrying Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, resolving cors unknown -> yes; no key was required for this public read call, though write endpoints still require the documented API Key. Free for community use with no paid tier — pricingModel free.
