  • https://tl.net The old Team Liquid forums, still the best place to discuss StarCraft

    And I guess if Reddit was ActivityPub that would be good too

  • Does Lemmy instance server software already allow for plugins or extensions

    Issue tracking for plugins/extensions, if you click subscribe on the issue then you'll get email updates for it https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3562

  • I think admins curating the feed is… Interesting but also kind of dangerous

    just letting the admins set defaults would be better than forcing these choices upon their users, which I think is was the above user was suggesting, which is kinda what Reddit does with having default subs

    The active sort still showing 2 days old posts is not ideal.

    why not? if they're getting new comments then they're still active

    Active (default): Calculates a rank based on the score [of the post] and time of the latest comment, with decay over time

    it's like something inbetween Hot and classic forums-style sorting (New Comments sort in Lemmy)

    but I do not think that should be the default sort method, instance admins can already adjust what the default sort method is

  • I haven't seen this, I only browse Subscribed not All

  • at this point I think we might need comments more than posts, there's lots of posts already but most of them are lacking comments

  • Tournaments and also digital versions of the game. I think Scrabble might be popular on Facebook?

  • Being able to respond to old posts is a good thing, like classic forums. I always hated that Reddit didn't allow you to do that, and Reddit also didn't have sort options for New Comments or Active.

    Imagine if someone made a post about a tech issue, it ranked high on Google results, lots of people in the comments with the same issue, and you found the solution, but the post was too old to reply to.

  • I still feel like adding those API routes and making PRs is easier than a full rewrite, with less fragmentation too

  • It's there now, the crawler found you. Congrats!

  • I don't think the chosen language should matter that much, I'm just worried about the fragmentation of the contributors

    duplicated work that could've just been done together, or as 3rd party tools that link to the base Lemmy database/API, or plugins/extensions eventually

  • Yeah we actually have a pretty good number of posts and votes but not enough comments in them usually

    I guess because people post about the niche they're interested in, but there aren't enough people to always find many others interested in it too

  • Also the moderation tools could've been Java and connect to the Lemmy database/API (maybe with some pull requests to add to Lemmy's API), which to me sounds a lot better than saying fuck it and rewriting everything, it could've lived in its own repo anyways

  • I guess, but I don't really want to contribute to the centralization all on the biggest instance

  • I haven't tried matrix yet. What's a good instance I can create my community on and bridge with my discord? For gaming communities.
