Geek-Jokes vs Universalis
Geek-Jokes
Geek-Jokes is a small open-source Flask API, hosted on Railway, that returns a single random geeky or programming-themed joke per request. There's no authentication, rate-limit tier, or account required — call the endpoint and get a joke back as plain text or JSON.
Universalis
Universalis is a crowdsourced market board API for Final Fantasy XIV, aggregating item listings, prices, and sale history submitted by the game's own community-plugin ecosystem across every data center and world. It exposes a keyless REST API alongside a WebSocket feed for real-time listing updates, both free to use. The old `/docs/index.html` path now permanently redirects to a dedicated documentation site.
