I plan on experimenting with the suggestions posted here. That way I can narrow down where the problem is

The live website works on desktop and mobile. The offline folder works well on desktop, but it has issues on mobile, such as the search bar not working

That would work

I’ll check it out

Thank you, I’ll try those

This looks good, thank you!

I was chatting with a friend, and she mentioned how she tries to at least set up a README, which includes her vision for the project and her plan for the implementation, design, and goals.

Best case scenario is that the planning helps her complete the project herself. Worst case scenario, someone else can pick up where she left off and use her considerations for the project.

I’m thinking of doing that for future projects too

I think the issue here is

they don’t show up under “posts” on your own profile

It makes sense to hide read posts on the main feed, but not when you’re looking at a particular user?

This doesn’t answer the Linux part, but on FDroid there’s something similar as “Retro Stack”

Thank you for sharing! This is my first project like this so I’ve got lots to learn. I’m going to try and contribute to a few other ones so try and learn what it’s like

This is very helpful, thank you! I’ll look into setting up more of that sometime

Good to know, I’ll explore some more

Thank you!

Makes sense, thank you!

You could try from this

Ideally try for a smaller size, else it takes time to load and wastes people’s data

Sounds good! This was my first dive into browser extensions as well. It’s not too bad once you go over the basics. If you give it a try, see the contributing page on the repo’s wiki for some resources on how to get started with browser extensions.

A super short summary is:

• manifest.json is the entry point, it links to HTML files (which represent things like the popup, sidebar) and scripts (which do most of the work)
• the background script runs all the time (see background.js), and the content scripts run on specific pages (ex. There’s one for Lemmy community pages, one for error pages)

If you DO give it a try, we were part way through migrating features from the LemmyTools userscript and that might be a good place to start. I wasn’t familiar with userscripts so I didn’t make much progress, and can’t get back to it for a little while. The issues page of the repo should have LemmyTools related features tagged. If any details are missing, let me know and I’ll add them in :)

We’re actually working on a browser extension for this! It currently supports both communities and posts

[email protected]

We ran into the same issue, federated sites are hard to work with. Right now, the extension has it so that a user needs to right click on a link to be redirected. That way the user can choose which links get redirected, and there’s no chance of accidentally redirecting the wrong thing.

There are other solutions (using the API for example), but they seemed to slow the browser down too much. Another proposed feature that hasn’t been implemented yet was to redirect when holding down a key (when holding down “r”, try to redirect the link).

Feel free to take a look, try it, and you can totally contribute code. It’s all open source and we’ve tried to keep the code simple and easy to verify/contribute.

I personally find a lack of downvotes to be annoying and harmful. People don’t go through the trouble of reporting problem content, and it usually leads to poor quality inflammatory content rising to the top.

If you’re new and haven’t really set up yet, explore other instances. You can find one that aligns with what you want out of Lemmy without jumping through hoops.

If you have set up, there are account migration tools for you. They just aren’t perfect yet

I don’t have as much experience working with the stack, but from what I’ve read it seems like Rust is a pretty solid choice for the backend. It also seems like a lot of the upgrades people want are for the front end, so that’s what would benefit the most from being simpler.

Typescript makes sense, and a handful of frameworks have typescript support. Would anyone know more about the benefits of using Inferno over something like Vue/Nuxt or plain React?

Good to know, could you share what website you were trying to post from?

I think one thing I should implement is a little toast message that explains what went wrong (ex. No title contents found)

Sorry to those that have already seen this. I’m trying to space out the posts so it’s not in a large clump in your feeds. People have different subscription lists, so I’m trying to reach those that haven’t seen it yet.

These are the last 4 posts :)
