Seeking Contributers and/or Possibly Someone to Fork/Take Over the Project

publication croisée depuis : https://dubvee.org/post/2950452

Cela concerne directement l'interface alternative de jlai.lu : https://p.jlai.lu/

On verra si des personnes continueront ce projet ou non. La nouvelle maj de Lemmy prévu pour jlai.lu sera supporté. Les suivantes dépendront de qui reprend ce projet.

Late January, I had to step away from the project for a while to deal with some family stuff. That's resolved, but try as I might, I just cannot force myself to get back into development mode on this.

I've got other projects I want to work on, both hobby and home improvement. I need to focus on the latter, and really want to focus on the former. Like anyone else, my time is finite.

The Hard Truth

Tesseract was written for Lemmy, and I'm tired of porting it to Lemmy over and over again because the Lemmy devs keep breaking the API. Yes, yes, pre-1.0 technically means they can shred the API and break everything from release to release. But when a pro

Is it possible de change UI on desktop ?

Hi everybody, I'm new to lemmy and I was wondering if it is possible to change UI design of lemm.ee on desktop ? On my smartphone I'm using Eternity, which is perfect, and I saw a nice layout on desktop called photon but I don't know if lemm.ee support it.

Thanks a lot

So you want to join the fediverse?

I have a draft designed for all types of fediverse software, but i narrowed it down to just threadiverse stuff

This is a guide meant to be linked for beginners, to explain the fediverse in as short time as possible.

Concepts

What's "federation"?

In easy terms; it's a concept where instances seamlessly integrate with each other. Users can talk to each other and participate in their communities. For example, my account is on lemm.ee and the community i am posting to is on slrpnk.net, yet i feel no friction.

What's an instance?

An instance is a server running software, with users, and communities, etc. (Each of these is like a mini-reddit/twitter/etc!) The software part is important, since instances can either be forums, microblogs, video-sharing sites, etc etc. And they can all interact with each other!

What's the "fediverse"?

The fediverse (federation + universe) is a coalition of federated instances running all types of different software, so a user from a forum instan

Welcome!

I'll be monitoring performance of the coming months and will make upgrades as necessary.

Welcome to LemmyUSA

LemmyUSA was created to help distribute the load across the Lemmy network. New Lemmy users are always welcome here.

Our goal is to provide a reliable home instance for anyone who needs one. Whether you plan to mainly interact with communities on other instances or build your own here, you're welcome to make LemmyUSA your base in the fediverse.

What is Lemmy? Lemmy is a federated link aggregator and discussion platform. Think of it like email - just as Gmail users can email Outlook or Yahoo users, your LemmyUSA account can interact with users and communities across all Lemmy instances. This means you can participate in discussions anywhere in the Lemmy network, regardless of where your account is hosted.

About LemmyUSA

LemmyUSA is built for the long-term as a stable, reliable instance. We've implemented several professional services to ensure quality:

Qual interface/frontend vocês usam o site?

O que acham de deixarmos o Photon como interface padrão? (A interface padrão atual ficaria em um outro subdominio, tipo default. e padrao.)

Alternative Frontend Lemmy

Hi,

gibt es die Möglichkeit ein alternatives Frontend für Lemmy wie Photon oder Voyager zu hosten. Das originale Frontend ist sehr nett, aber die anderen sind was fürs Auge :p

Falls es diese bereits gibt, wäre es möglich, diese in der Seitenleiste zu verlinken?

Beste Grüße Maki

Enable undetermined language in your community

Most frontends (I don't know any, really) doesn't allow you to set a default language for your post. For that reason, a lot of frontends allow you to post without any language selected, while defaulting to English. But that is not universally true. Photon recently started requiring language to be selected and started defaulting to Undetermined language. This now creates unnecessary friction when the community doesn't have it as allowed language and requires the user to select allowed language for every single post.

It really is a simple change on your end that will take you seconds, but can save a lot of time in the long run and some frustration for people that want to post in your communities.

On lemmy-ui frontend you can change it by going to community settings and under languages you can select multiple ones by holding Ctrl key.

P.S. This community is a great example of one that doesn't allow Undetermined language.

Alt texts are now widely available on Lemmy and on many of its apps & web frontends

Heyho! With Lemmy version v0.19.4 alt texts for image posts got finally added to Lemmy.

Apps and web frontends such as Jerboa, Voyager, Photon and the standard web UI have now the option to provide alt text for an image post and to display alt texts.

I hope slrpnk.net users will use this feature <3


A (short) FAQ to alt text

What is alt text?

"Alternative text (alt text) is used to describe non-textual elements, like photos, icons, and data visualizations." (Source)

How does it look when used in an image post?

SLRPNK Community Discussion - August 2024

Introduction

Every month we have a community check-in, to talk about the instance and how things are going, and to create a space where you can share stuff too. This post will be pinned and we'll check it regularly over the course of the month for new comments to read and respond to. We're really grateful that all of you have chosen this instance, and are making it such a great place to hang out thanks to your contributions. I get a serious hit of dopamine when I encounter someone who's made a great comment in a remote thread, and recognize the username is from this instance. It's a pleasure to admin for so many intelligent, thoughtful people.

A 'Canvas Event' is a participatory time-limited art-form where individuals can alter one pixel at a time, and through competition, negotiation, or coordination with each other, create coherent images together. Now that the event is over, here's some feature

Depuis quelques semaines maintenant, j'ai erreur 400 sur la page de l'interface Photon de jlailu.

Ani.Social May 2024 Notice

Ani.Social and Lemmy.World federation issues

Due to federation issues between Ani.Social and Lemmy.World caused by geographic distance, Ani.Social has been relocated from Asia to Europe.

Ani.Social was first moved to US on May 12 because EU providers like to ask for my passport and electricity bills. But even in the US, Ani.Social still could not keep up with Lemmy.World. Thankfully, there are smaller server providers in the EU that don't ask for my birth certificate so we migrated there a little over 24 hours ago.

The chart below shows Ani.Social is now on par with other servers in terms of Lemmy.World activity queue in the past 24 hours.

Moving Ani.Social to a region closer Lemmy.World was a last resort option because I'd like to have my servers close to me and to avoid centralizing Lemmy servers in US/EU. However, because [a potential fix app

I've searched but couldn't find any discussion on this topic, so I apologize if it's been answered before.

Would the admins consider hosting the Alexandrite and Photon front-ends, e.g. at a.lemm.ee and p.lemm.ee?

Alternative UIs for our Instance

I am in the opinion that some alternative UIs should be available on the instance (domain) – if possible, of course. Lemmy.world already has many alt. UIs, I think we should have something like that. So, here's a list:

SLRPNK community discussion - November 2023

Introduction

Greetings everybody! Slrpnk.net now has two Admins! On the 16th of October @poVoq gave me admin privileges, and I'm now involved in approving applications, responding to report tickets, and coordinating with other instance administrators. Your main admin is continuing to do those things as well, in addition to sysadmin tasks and technology improvements, and we are coordinating over XMPP to keep our actions consistent and in line with Slrpnk's values. Thank you @ProdigalFrog and @punkisundead for your warm endorsements, your support means a lot to me.

XMPP chat integration

As mentioned last month, Slrpnk.net is running an Ejabberd service. Movim.Slrpnk.net hosts a web-client you can use with your current username and password. After logging in to the Movim client, your XMPP account will be active, and you can access Slrpnk chat with any XMPP compatible Android or Apple client. You can find a
