  • That you! Idk how to explain the fediverse to my mainstream social media friends, but I think a good step 1 is giving them an intuitive front end.

    I would love to eventually onboard people to Lemmy and PieFed through Blorp, but that’s a whole other challenge. Idk how to explain the fediverse to people. In a perfect world, I think people who stumbled across Blorp would figure it out with no prior Fediverse knowledge. Idk how to get there.

  • Unpkg.com shows different results based on trailing /

  • Idk. There’s a lot of Lemmy clients and many of them are really good. When I started, Voyager didn’t have good support for larger screens, but I think that has changed. I do think I have the best account switching. Voyager will reset the current navigation when you change accounts. Any pages you have open will be cleared. Blorp does not do that. Blorp is also cross platform like Voyager.

    But honestly if you prefer another app, you should use it! All the frontend devs are super cool!

  • Yeah absolutely! But it does feel more useful to have it live on the domain if possible.

    I run my own Lemmy/PieFed client. I'm trying to think if there is a way to tell if an instance has shut down without hard coding a list. The hard part imo is telling if an instance is shut down vs temporarily down.

    Though as I write this, I suppose this same feature could be used to resolve a post if an instance is temporarily down. So maybe I just ping /nodeinfo/2.1 and if it times out, I redirect.

  • Yes! I think I might need Mbin to implement the resolve_object endpoint first. I don't think they have that currently. Basically I need some way to look up posts by activity pub id. There's also a strong possibility I won't implement all of Mbin's functionality. I might just implement the parts that are most similar to Lemmy. But if you're looking for one app to login to Lemmy, PieFed, and Mbin, I would like to be that app.

  • Thank you! It's so validating to see people actually host my project. I'm so grateful for all the hard work instance admins put in. Please don't hesitate to open GitHub issues if you have feature requests or find bugs. Expect PieFed could break as they push breaking API changes, but I'll try and resolve issues quickly.

    I have an idea for to prevent broken links from Lemmy instances that shutting down

  • Edit: I misread your comment. I see you pointed out that it doesn't encode the em dash into the comment itself.

    I think that might just be how Lemmy's default frontend renders markdown. The trailing slash thing happens at the API level. But a quick test shows submitting a comment with two dashes sends back a comment with two dashes.

  • I was today years old when I learned Lemmy doesn't let you have links without a trailing slash

  • I’m working in a Lemmy client https://blorpblorp.xyz/. I would love to ingest whatever features Tesseract had that people will miss the most. Feel free to open a GitHub issue or post to !blorp@lemmy.ml

  • The lights were my main frustration. I’m still running Thread switches, though they’re mostly HomeKit over Thread, not Matter. A big part of the problem is there are only 1 (maybe 2) Matter over Thread lights on the market last I checked. It’s really dificult to tell if the issue is Nanoleaf or Matter over Thread lights in general. For switches, there are many more options.

  • I saw a post recently explaining a tool someone created that lets you mass downvote a post. The tool uses a bunch of accounts that you can instruct to vote on any post that you want. So maybe voter manipulation is when they see multiple accounts voting very similarly?

  • This deserves 2 upvotes, but alas I only have one to give

  • Idk why this is getting downvoted. Sounded wholesome. I can see people disagreeing on the giving up hobbies party, but it’s also really easy to make judgments from an outside perspective. Me and my partner do have hobbies and we do appreciate our alone time, but I also aspire to do more puzzles and quality time things together.
