May their servers be strong, and their storage consistent!

[–] xtremeownage@lemmyonline.com 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I got lots and lots and lots of ram and CPU ready for the occasion.

Although- physical hardware hasn't been the issue with many of the performance issues with lemmy.

[–] AkatsukiLevi@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

You, my friend, may your CPU's never stall and your RAM never exhaust. May the gods of IT bless your hardware for the beloved stability for centuries

They should make a sacrifice to the server gods

It's an older meme, sir, but it checks out.

The Memmy dev has pushed almost 70 major TestFlight builds in two weeks. Dude is a machine.

You're not wrong lol though tbf 0.18.0 made Lemmy quite a bit more usable for me.

[–] Conman_signor@lemmy.ml 24 points 1 year ago

Oh geez, the 30th is coming quick isn't it

[–] MDKAOD@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

And I applaud them for it. Lemmy needs merch.

Also, friendly reminder that https://join-lemmy.org/donate exists.

There's been a lot of activity there recently, lots of new contributors!

[–] mrB@lemmy.mb-server.com 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I just made my first contribution to liftoff and now I got the hang of it. I want to do a lot more.

[–] KD_14@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Ya hopefully it starts picking up even more. I also just started up.

[–] JCreazy@midwest.social 16 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I don't know which app to settle on since they are being updated so frequently. Thunder and Jerboa are my top contenders at the moment.

[–] Brahm1nmam@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Coming from Infinity for Reddit, I've been really enjoying Jerboa

+1 for Jerboa if you're coming from Sync. Very similar style, and it just works 😃

[–] LiarBesidalAll@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Jerboa has been fantastic as a former baconreader user (well, still am til the first). Can't recommend enough

I feel for them. Keep strong...

Mine looks a bit different. Solid green for 2-3 weeks and radio silence after

[–] RomanRoy@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's great to see. They are expecting a huge influx of users and are working towards having things prepared.

I anticipate a lot of client apps will be ready by then as well, in order to promote themselves and Lemmy/kbin.

Is there any infinity(reddit client) developers contributing to lemmy.consider asking them

[–] Navigate@partizle.com 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I don't know, but isn't infinity planning to go subscription once the changes take effect? This would make think they'll keep their efforts there

Funny post, especially since all apps are being discussed except wefwef by OP :))

[–] Thedogspaw@midwest.social 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wefwef is great its the best app for lemmy

[–] Dalinar@lemmy.nz 5 points 1 year ago

I'm using it now. I admittedly haven't been on ios and using Apollo for close to 2 years now but this feels largely how I remember it.

Impressive. Now let's see the mobile devs git contributions

[–] Adori@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Connect is doing great, just got an update 3 hrs ago for and fixed some things I just noticed a moment agk

[–] ImFresh3x@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I have 4 mobile iOS apps on TestFlight. They seem to get big updates daily. I know lemon will be coming soon. So that will be 5. Things are moving fast.

[–] JshKlsn@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I have 8 Android apps downloaded. I get multiple updates per day. I'm subscribed to GitHub release notification and my email is blowing up nonstop.

Everyone is working hard, which is great. Just a few weeks ago when I joined Lemmy the Jerboa app was pretty shit. I'd give it a 2/10. Now it's a solid 6/10. Just needs more features and to stop timing out every 60 seconds.

[–] smort@feddit.nl 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Can you recommend one? I’m on MemmyApp currently, and the basic functionality mostly works, but I wouldn’t mind trying other options.

[–] ImFresh3x@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Copied form another user:

Mlem

Feels very Apollo like with things like slide to upvote and reply Doesn’t seem to be able to handle inline images and media (so you sometimes miss post information) Switching to new communities is not intuitive (you have to click the community name and type with the “Subscribed” toggle pane open) No guides on how Markdown works No message inbox Memmy

Has an inbox (not something I’ve seen from the others) Has Apollo like slide interactions Easy to find and switch communities Text is a little too small Found a couple of visual bugs (obviously this is all very beta!) Liftoff

Seems to show all the post information you could want (community it was posted too, which community that user is part of, etc) Feels a little bit like the official reddit app No Apollo like slide interactions Some interesting choices when trying to find communities (showing the full sidebar) Colours are a little constrasty A couple of UI bugs I don’t love the rounded corners on everything out of the box Thunder

Pretty polished Slide interactions are great Nice Markdown editor Not found any graphical bugs Some UI elements (subbing / unsubbing from a community) aren’t always clear Written in flutter so may not give a true “native” experience

I hope they will add e2e encrypted DMs

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah. Just embedding Matrix somehow would be the way to do this.

I don't think that's possible to do using activity pub, but if you have a matrix account you can add it in your settings. When viewing the profile of someone who has a matrix account set on the web ui, there will be a button that says "send encrypted message". You should see it if you look at my profile page, for example.

That's not really Lemmy's purpose. I disliked when Reddit added it, and it would be an unnecessary addition here as well.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I get that it's unnecessary, but why did you dislike it?

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I don't want a bunch of fucking randos trying to chat me up. If I wanted live chat I wouldn't be Reddit (or Lemmy) in the first place.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

It probably wouldn't have been annoying if you could just disable it. Getting that little notification with a number (that you compulsively want to clear down to zero) was always a pain.

[–] JuxtaposedJaguar@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

heyyy babby want 2 have the sex? send cc

[–] mikegioia@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

I can't believe the progress they're all making
