I plan on experimenting with the suggestions posted here. That way I can narrow down where the problem is
The live website works on desktop and mobile. The offline folder works well on desktop, but it has issues on mobile, such as the search bar not working
That would work
I’ll check it out
Thank you, I’ll try those
This looks good, thank you!

I was chatting with a friend, and she mentioned how she tries to at least set up a README, which includes her vision for the project and her plan for the implementation, design, and goals.
Best case scenario is that the planning helps her complete the project herself. Worst case scenario, someone else can pick up where she left off and use her considerations for the project.
I’m thinking of doing that for future projects too
That t-shirt would be cool, but don’t have time to properly test our extension before then
I’m looking forward to December when I’ll have time to work on it. I’ll try to attend some office hours, I didn’t know that was an option
I think the issue here is
they don’t show up under “posts” on your own profile
It makes sense to hide read posts on the main feed, but not when you’re looking at a particular user?
This doesn’t answer the Linux part, but on FDroid there’s something similar as “Retro Stack”
Thank you for sharing! This is my first project like this so I’ve got lots to learn. I’m going to try and contribute to a few other ones so try and learn what it’s like
This is very helpful, thank you! I’ll look into setting up more of that sometime
Good to know, I’ll explore some more
Thank you!
Makes sense, thank you!
You could try from this

Ideally try for a smaller size, else it takes time to load and wastes people’s data
Sounds good! This was my first dive into browser extensions as well. It’s not too bad once you go over the basics. If you give it a try, see the contributing page on the repo’s wiki for some resources on how to get started with browser extensions.
A super short summary is:
If you DO give it a try, we were part way through migrating features from the LemmyTools userscript and that might be a good place to start. I wasn’t familiar with userscripts so I didn’t make much progress, and can’t get back to it for a little while. The issues page of the repo should have LemmyTools related features tagged. If any details are missing, let me know and I’ll add them in :)
We actually have an extension for this, it’s one of the more popular extensions for Lemmy&Kbin, going by the counts on chrome/firefox stores:
It was originally made to solve this problem, but we’ve been adding other features as well. Right now you can redirect communities and posts, and redirect links by right clicking on them.
Let me know if it works, and also where it doesn’t so that we can improve it :)
We’re actually working on a browser extension for this! It currently supports both communities and posts
We ran into the same issue, federated sites are hard to work with. Right now, the extension has it so that a user needs to right click on a link to be redirected. That way the user can choose which links get redirected, and there’s no chance of accidentally redirecting the wrong thing.
There are other solutions (using the API for example), but they seemed to slow the browser down too much. Another proposed feature that hasn’t been implemented yet was to redirect when holding down a key (when holding down “r”, try to redirect the link).
Feel free to take a look, try it, and you can totally contribute code. It’s all open source and we’ve tried to keep the code simple and easy to verify/contribute.
I personally find a lack of downvotes to be annoying and harmful. People don’t go through the trouble of reporting problem content, and it usually leads to poor quality inflammatory content rising to the top.
If you’re new and haven’t really set up yet, explore other instances. You can find one that aligns with what you want out of Lemmy without jumping through hoops.
If you have set up, there are account migration tools for you. They just aren’t perfect yet
I don’t have as much experience working with the stack, but from what I’ve read it seems like Rust is a pretty solid choice for the backend. It also seems like a lot of the upgrades people want are for the front end, so that’s what would benefit the most from being simpler.
Typescript makes sense, and a handful of frameworks have typescript support. Would anyone know more about the benefits of using Inferno over something like Vue/Nuxt or plain React?
Thank you for putting all this together!

Having a separate list for extensions would work nicely, although I think it fits to have the extensions listed here. There are few actual browser extensions for Lemmy/Kbin/Mastodon. There are a lot of scripts, and we were working on incorporating the better scripts into the extension for the same reasons you mentioned above. Scripts are harder to manage and review
My thoughts on the questions.
