It’s cloud services, not things being web based. It’s capitalism hijacking technology and preventing you from owning anything. Figma runs in the browser and it’s a fantastic piece of software. But it’s also a cloud service that can be taken away from you at any point. But if you subtract the business model, the fact that you can run something like that in the browser is incredible. Web makes it so incredibly easy to distribute cross platform software. FOSS should embrace it and use it to build actually good software not all this SASS garbage.
I don’t want to point fingers at anything without looking into it, but I suspect PieFed isn’t as optimized as Lemmy yet. That’s mostly from my own testing, and it would make sense since PieFed is so new. But my testing hasn’t been that scientific, so take that with a grain of salt.
- NSFW is a big issue, and I’m really sorry to everyone that I missed that. I’m going to try and get a fix up for that tonight, but it could take a day or two to roll out
- I actually cache pretty aggressively, but what you’re describing is likely when I chose to load the next page. For example, it might say, “when you’re 50% through the currently feed of posts, fetch the next 50”. This could probably be tuned a little better.
For the second issue, could you compare the loading time against Lemmy.world in Blorp? It’s probably the way I’m paginating, but that will rule out 100% that it’s an issue with Blorp and not a slow response from PieFed.
Thanks! A couple changes may need to be made, so you can configure it how you like. Feel free to open an issue if you notice anything missing. Check the .env.example to see the existing options
That just Lemmy doing Lemmy things lol. Because I support Lemmy and PieFed, idk if I want to change the default to PieFed at the moment. But if you were interested in hosting blorp.piefed.social, I can help you set it up with piefed.social as the default instance.
Edit: My biggest concern with default instance is another lemm.ee scenario where the instance shuts down.
I need to fix that. I was thinking about just hiding the down arrow, but if you think I heart is better, I can try that. But the score should still be shown next to the heart, right? Unless score is hidden. I’m thinking I put the heart to the left of the score.
Yeah that’s a bug I really need to address, sorry. I’ll bump that to the top of my priorities. Realistically I won’t have a fix for that until mid week.
Blorp dev here. PieFed support has been added. See announcement post
That means a lot! I’m pretty proud of what I’ve built, but there is still a lot of room for improvement. Expect it to continue to get better.
Pro tip, if you see a PieFed server missing, you can paste the address into the search and Blorp will attempt to look it up.
Yeah. So you pop one off the stack, but in processing that item, you push 10 more things on the stack. And the same happens when you pop one of those 10 items off the stack.
When I was a kid, I had some friends that would prove they are more catholic by adding as many extra prayers to the rosary as they could. Eventually those extra prayers turned into singing. It was weird.
Is it fair to say people with ADHD add thoughts onto a stack while the rest of the population adds thoughts to a queue?
While I agree, everyone constantly restating this is not helpful. We should instead ask ourselves what’s about BlueSky is working and what can we learn? For example, I think the threadiverse could benefit from block lists, which auto update with new filter keywords. I’ve seen Lemmy users talk about how much time they spend crafting their filters to get the feed of content they want. It would be much nicer if you could choose and even combine block lists (e.g. US politics).
Gen Z here. I usually look for the magnet link to copy paste into my torrent client. I think that bypasses the download button problem.
They replaced the toggle with a button that you can program to do any one of a selection of things. For example, my phones always on silent so I use this button to turn on/off the flashlight. They have a it a really dumb marketing name ✨ The Action Button ✨
