This is actually amazing. I’ve done a bit of editing as I play Pokémon Go which uses OSM for the background map. I got fed up of just looking at roads so I mapped in all the buildings, shops, parks etc near me.

This gamifies walking and exploring which I love!

I only check Reddit now for a game sub which, while on Lemmy, doesn’t have critical mass yet (and I’m not sure it will).

Also it would be good to implement one of those toast notifications “press back again to exit” that other apps have.

Doesn’t this make NewPipe better in that instance? If it’s client side you aren’t going to be rate limited.

There is also a fork of NewPipe that integrates SponsorBlock (I don’t know if Piped has that).

What happens if you use SmartTubeNext on a TV? I’m assuming the interface wouldn’t support the 3 strike YouTube popup so I guess you’d just get blocked without knowing why?

I’m guessing ReVanced will support the popup so you’d know.

Relay is still working for me, including NSFW content:

It’s partly why I joined lemmy.one as they disable downvotes.

I can recommend, for Android:

Connect

Liftoff

Thunder

I’m using all 3, plus Jerboa, as they are all fantastic apps. At some point I’ll just stick with one, but it’s exciting following the development of these apps. Use Obtainium to keep them up to date (although Connect is Google Play only).

There are some fantastic apps being made right now though. For android I am following development for:

Connect

Jerboa

Liftoff

Thunder

Connect is only on Google Play, but the bottom 3 I keep updated using the Obtainium app which grabs the releases from GitHub (gets updates faster then waiting for Google Play).

It’s just a gotcha to them. If I read an article from The Verge and Reddit hasn’t commented on it, I’m not even going to remember that quote, let alone make that connection that the article must be unsubstantiated hearsay.

It must make them feel better saying it though.

They kind of work, you can see below that the content is not from those communities. I have to change the sort method to get the content, but the sort method is broken for me as I’m on lemmy.one which is not on v18:

It now looks like this in 0.35:

Do you have a link please? I can only see 0.34 from the below:

It’s really nice.

It’s the Issues page on either the Lemmy or the Lemmy-UI repository (I don’t know which one is more appropriate):

https://github.com/LemmyNet

I don’t have a GitHub account so I haven’t submitted anything there, but feel free to suggest my idea.

The feature would still be useful when commenting on third instances though.

See the third instances section of this comment:

Oh yeah, my mistake. So on Beehaw communities it would basically be lemmy.world users speaking amongst themselves from the perspective of lemmy.world.

If Beehaw has say the main gaming community, then that’s going to be subscribed from users from all different instances, so there will probably be more comments from non Beehaw users on there than Beehaw users.

Hopefully the main communities move out of Beehaw to an instance that doesn’t block large communities though.

That’s true, but they still serve different purposes, i.e. r/pcgaming is specific. Using that example, it’s not like we have r/gaming2 which serves the exact same purpose as r/gaming, and has a similar size user base.

I think things will settle as you say, but this isn’t a good start when the user base is exploding. I’m only just getting my head around it all and I’m a fairly tech minded person for someone who doesn’t work in the field. Something like this is just going to put a lot of people off, which is a shame.
