I wish it worked on more webpages. But totally agree.

What? I’m not following. Steam isn’t federating with anyone. This is about having a link to an external site. Nothing more. Has nothing to do with federation directly.

That is so bad. They clearly don’t understand the appeal of decentralized systems…

Thanks so much!

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your support. As mentioned, this is only the beginning. Lots more improvements coming 🎉. And if you ever have feedback, suggestions, ideas, problems, etc. be sure to let me know!

Thanks! Better image support (including GIF support) is on the roadmap. Will look into the clipping issue shortly. Stay tuned to !echo@eventfrontier.com for updates.

At this point it’s like, why not use Ethernet?

The craziest thing is that Elon’s tweets are still completely visible.

So if you were moving to another home or apartment, is it a reasonable strategy to stop paying rent at your current home while you’re looking for a new place? Of course not. Same idea here.

@MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz If the instance is overloaded, how do you still get posts then?

Does the subscription being pending remove any functionality or change the behavior at all?

I have a lot of them from Beehaw.org. What I didn’t expect is I still seem to be seeing posts from those communities in my subscribed feed.

Ads too 😉

If you’re into JavaScript, https://github.com/dynamoose/dynamoose is a project I maintain, and has a lot of great documentation, Slack channels, and more.

Although my attention on it goes in waves, it could for sure use more help. I’m also totally willing to help answer questions and point people in the right direction.

We currently have 80 open issues, 6 open PRs. 9 of those issues are marked as “good first issues” and 8 are marked as “help wanted”.

So there are for sure some easy jumping off points to get started. But I’m also always happy to answer questions and assist in anyway I can as well.

Beyond that, it’s all about diving into something. I found Dynamoose when it was much smaller, and just started with small contributions and built up from there. Following developers on social media, and following programming communities and newsletters can be helpful too.

I build a Swift package for the Lemmy API: https://github.com/rrainn/Lemmy-Swift-Client.

Beyond that, the SwiftUI tutorial is fairly good: https://developer.apple.com/tutorials/swiftui/.

But just searching on YouTube and Stack Overflow about how to do things goes a long way too. Google a lot as well.
