  • Oh wow, your account switcher screen looks nice! So far, Interstellar doesn't have any method of switching accounts like that.

    Using the AP id is interesting. And you use it for users and communities too? Do you use the dedicated AP object API routes to fetch data, or do you somehow parse the AP id itself? From my personal experience, the AP object endpoints are a bit slower to return data (maybe that's just Mbin though).

    We're currently working on adding web support to Interstellar, so we will need to make a decision on how we handle routes.

  • Yeah honestly our mistake was having a multiple very talented frontend developers working on different clients instead of collaborating.

    I agree with you here; it would be so nice to see all these talented developers working on one project in unison. I'm sure the resultant fediverse client would be a dream! I'm just not sure how we could make that happen.

  • I don't use blorp, but the way they made that post is definitely not the way to provide feedback. Feedback should be respectful and helpful. You aren't even getting paid for this (not that that makes a difference in how they should treat you), you are donating your own time and energy to make blorp happen. You have no obligation to them at all.

    One of the issues they mentioned (about Cloudflare) isn't even related to your app and could just as easily happen on mine or any others. I received a negative review at some point that was related to a server issue and was completely out of my hands, and it's frustrating (even after it was fixed server-side, the user never updated their review). I could go on, and I'm sure you could as well.

    It's best not to dwell on it though. You've made a great app, that honestly, I could take so inspiration from!

  • Lemmy to Piefed account migration

  • Yeah sorry, you can only do subscriptions with Lemmy and PieFed. It obviously doesn't help you right now, but I might try to work on expanding the account migration to support more things soon.

    What Android app would you recommend for PieFed?

  • Oh nice! I used to be a Debian/Ubuntu only person, but I tried EndeavourOS quite a few years ago, and it's been great ever since! Last year I installed Arch the vanilla way, and I had to boot up the USB multiple times, but I finally got things working on it. I'm definitely glad I did the standard install at least once though, because I learned way more things about Linux than I ever would have from installing other distros. I would have an extremely hard time fixing boot issues, for instance, without having installed Arch from the wiki. I know when I installed LibreOffice, the wiki page recommends installing Hunspell for spell checking; I'm assuming it would work with other programs as well?

    Interstellar uses Flutter (UI framework) & Dart (language); it's not difficult at all to learn if you'd like to get into it, especially if you've used web technologies before. We're always looking for more contributors if you'd be interested 😉! Anyway, I'll keep you in mind for testing; it's good to know there's another person using it on desktop. I can't make any guarantees for when the desktop improvements would come, just since there's already so much other stuff to do, but I'll definitely let you know!

  • Ah, you're on NixOS? I haven't personally used it but I have considered it. I like the idea of having the OS stay the same as long as the config is the same. ATM though, I am on Arch.

    Still gonna have to see about the refresh thing, haven't tried yet. Been busy ricing hyprland, nvim and fish on a new install.

    The refresh button will work on the Feed screen, but there is not one present on most other screens. What we really need to do is add some keyboard shortcuts to the app.

    I'd personally like to make some changes to the app that will make it more desktop friendly (e.g., split screen, tabs, keyboard shortcuts, etc.) as the app has mainly focused on mobile platforms up to this point.

  • Primarily, it would be that Interstellar does have basic mod action support (Pin/Unpin, mark NSFW, remove post, and ban user), it supports displaying and assigning post flairs, and it supports creating cross posts. Additionally, the iOS app is out of beta.

  • Is there someone I could converse with who would be able to update the information for my app on that wiki page? It's just that some of the information is outdated.

  • Thank you, and yes, it was absolutely awful, lol!

    And it was super costly too; I had to buy a whole mac computer just to compile for Apple devices, not to mention the $100/year developer fee as well. You can tell Apple isn't trying to have good DX. I'm sure you had a similar process as well though.

  • Thank you guys, I have figured out the issue and addressed it!

    I can't tell if it will automatically become available in the missing countries or if we have to wait till the next update. I'll check back in a day and let you know the status.
