Good question sometimes I find posts that have been posted 3 years ago in Hot… It seems really broken

Aye

Wtf just do your calls in the stairway awkwardly smiling at passing coworkers like the rest of us

I added a mark as read button to the posts but now patiently waiting till the WebSockets -> REST API transition is complete so it can get merged.

The front end needs a lot of work… Every bit is appreciated and the maintainers are pretty fast at reviewing and providing feedback which is nice to see.

Just a “normal” http API as far as I know. There won’t be any live notifications/data on release but this can be added using polling at a later stage. It was mainly done because websockets just don’t scale well at all with thousands of users.

Lemmys WebSockets are being phased out currently and thus all bugs regarding them (wrong vote counters, posts being pushed in at the top in the wrong categories, etc.) are gonna go away as soon as the transition is complete.

Already resolved itself, the Nodes counter had the same dip so probably just servers not responding.

This is great! Thanks for your work.

What an awesome time to be alive if you just look at the scientific progress and ignore the slow societal collapse.

GitHub would probably be the best place for feature requests.

That said the feature you’re talking about is already (sorta) available. You can head over to your settings and disable “Show read posts” which will hide posts you either A) opened or B) up- downvoted.

I recently contributed a mark post as read button to the lemmy-ui which will hopefully be merged & released soon-ish.

2 GB RAM might be a bit close for Postgres which you need for Matrix & Lemmy. And 25GB storage is not gonna last long at all for Lemmy + Matrix.

I wouldn’t create an own instance just for this community and rather try to get more and different people as community mods if the current mod isn’t responding.

Let’s not kid ourselves UI/UX needs a lot of work not just a little, but it’s making progress and all done by volunteers and that’s impressive on it’s own.

Yes a good search over the entire lemmyverse is gonna be vital… Does anyone know if there’s a project for a global search engine going?

They are planning to switch from WS to HTTP soon (backend is already switch over I think). Either way I don’t think there’s a documentation of the API itself yet, but you can just reverse engineer the calls from the calls from JS library or look at the backend code directly.

I partly agree, duplicate communities is something that needs to be addressed somehow.

Not bad, but I like the current one a bit more tbh

Depends on how you look at it, but I would classify the smoothness of the gesture controls and camera feed to be quite a major breakthrough in usability as well.

Another problem is that you never actually receive a confirmation if your application was received and/or rejected, you are just sorta stuck in limbo after applying.
