  • That you! Idk how to explain the fediverse to my mainstream social media friends, but I think a good step 1 is giving them an intuitive front end.

    I would love to eventually onboard people to Lemmy and PieFed through Blorp, but that’s a whole other challenge. Idk how to explain the fediverse to people. In a perfect world, I think people who stumbled across Blorp would figure it out with no prior Fediverse knowledge. Idk how to get there.




  • Idk. There’s a lot of Lemmy clients and many of them are really good. When I started, Voyager didn’t have good support for larger screens, but I think that has changed. I do think I have the best account switching. Voyager will reset the current navigation when you change accounts. Any pages you have open will be cleared. Blorp does not do that. Blorp is also cross platform like Voyager.

    But honestly if you prefer another app, you should use it! All the frontend devs are super cool!


  • Yes! I think I might need Mbin to implement the resolve_object endpoint first. I don’t think they have that currently. Basically I need some way to look up posts by activity pub id. There’s also a strong possibility I won’t implement all of Mbin’s functionality. I might just implement the parts that are most similar to Lemmy. But if you’re looking for one app to login to Lemmy, PieFed, and Mbin, I would like to be that app.
