Been wondering about that in our community, I’m meant to tinker around with removing that block, since for us it’s in effect a list of recently added communities, which might be empty and/or little activity, and that is not very encouraging for new users.
We had a user ask for images in comments to be hidden by default. Useless for me, but maybe such an option for users to set would solve the problem?
@tateisu@lemmy.juggler.jp was so kind as to share the code; https://github.com/tateisu/gitHubReleaseWatcher
There seems to be a “matrix.juggler.jp” where I would guess one could meet the person/people running this instance, but I’ve just signed up and bothered them on their lemmy instance, we’ll see.
Any progress on that? Might be the time to bother them ;]
Fair point about the videos. But what would you consider a better option for documents?
Oh one more thing I was meant to ask (for the future) is the possibility to expose points/carma. I can see some work around that in the repo, but not sure how it translates to end users. I mean both directly in the UI and in the API. I get why one might not like this system, but in some cases some positive reinforcement might come in handy, and I’ve got some other long term plans for it :]
And yeah, I know it’s just the two of you, and admire your work. Very happy it happened at the exact time I was finally making a decision to pick a system for something I wanted to set up as nothing could come closer to the ideal solution. And as far as my comments might come of as nagging, it’s really well intended in support of the dev process and help free some people from the corporate rabbit hole. I’m looking forward to every release changelog like it’s christmass xD
\o/ congrats on a new release!
Three questions from our instance;
our install went public few days ago; https://szmer.info/ with very limited promotion for now, looking to get some core users before I start running the streets with a board about it.
Loss[t] federation with lemmy.ml because of the tests, had to find my old lemmyml login just co comment on how impressive this thing is. Son I am impress.
