Lemmy Development Update 2024-03-15

Here is our regular update that explains what we have been working on for the past two weeks. This should allow average users to keep up with development, without reading Github comments or knowing how to program....

Cory Doctorow gets scammed (pluralistic.net)

I was tricked by a phone-phisher pretending to be from my bank, and he convinced me to hand over my credit-card number, then did $8,000+ worth of fraud with it before I figured out what happened.

[SOLVED: Updated every 24 hours] Display name and Bio updates don't seem to be federating

E.g.:...

Announcing Ibis, the federated Wikipedia Alternative (ibis.wiki)

And some developers are bad at design/css (like me).

nutomic, 1 month ago

Yes it uses markdown.

nutomic, 1 month ago

I’m not good at frontend development or webdesign so I definitely need help in those areas.

At minimum it means you don’t have to create two separate accounts to make edits on both instances.

I would be willing to change the title, maybe “Announcing Ibis, the federated Wiki” ?

nutomic, 1 month ago

Actually its too complicated to change the title in Ibis due to federation. Plus I would have to rewrite the whole intro. But I will keep it in mind for the future.

Nowadays I can easily handle all Github notifications within less than an hour. After the Reddit blackout there were so many notifications that I couldnt even read all the issues, let alone respond. So I had to unsubscribe from issue notifications for some months.

Interesting, maybe it wanted to tell you about this project :D

nutomic, 1 month ago

Right but that’s already over. And anyway Ibis was mostly finished since some weeks, just needed some minor work to push it over the finishing line.

Thank you!

nutomic, 1 month ago

Sounds good, please share the announcement in relevant places.

nutomic, 1 month ago

I mean the drama about it is over. We are constantly working to improve mod tools but it takes time.

nutomic, 1 month ago

That is true but most developers are still on Github, which hasn’t been affected by enshittification yet. I also have to keep using Github because of Lemmy, so I don’t want to switch back and forth between two separate platforms.

However once Gitea starts federation we definitely want to migrate Lemmy to a selfhosted instance, and probably Ibis too.

The frontend is very primitive right now, but it could definitely be made to work without JS.

nutomic, 1 month ago

Yes articles are duplicated in the same way posts are duplicated on Mastodon or Lemmy, so they wont go away. Moderation doesnt exist so far. There is a search field in the sidebar.

The link goes directly to Ibis where I posted the announcement.

Thank you :)

It can get a bit boring working on the same project for so many years. Having a different project gives me more motivation.

nutomic, 1 month ago

Maybe you can make some contributions to Ibis ;)

How to download account data?

Is there a setting page on the lemmy instance where I can download all my data?
