I mean it’s one thing when you bring together a bunch of services that have no interest in being compatible, verses a bunch that are all conforming to the same standard.
If you’re here, there’s still hope for the internet
Don’t let it fall

As a younger tech person, I definitely don’t get a lot about email. It’s old and weird and arcane and half it’s features that match newer services seem to be built on top of hacks that are enforced through convention alone that will break if I decide I like to format my titles a little differently. Third party clients work, but the main providers, Gmail outlook use some proprietary api to make sure their own works well while everyone else gets stuck with removedty imap. There’s endless little incompatibilities. It all just feels like delerict tower held together with miles of duct tape. Oh and I still haven’t found a good answer to why calendars are so tied up with email.
It may be a little overly negative, I use mastodon, I just don’t find it useful to publish my stuff on
Dude this is 10x simpler than WordPress
It works with anything lemmy works with, so yes
Hey aren’t you the duckquill dev?
Update: I think I see the problem, comments are too wide on small screens. I’ll see if I can fix it
It should work on mobile. What problem are you seeing?
I get the idea, but it’s my home instance, so it’d be kinda weird for me to use a different one. Also would add an extra step
Drop a link! I’d like to see it
Lol, don’t blame the duckquill dev, he only wrote the mastodon one, which I don’t use. This is all me.
So I suppose there’s an inbuilt limit for comment depth and number of replies, but if you start down the road of working on that, you’ll eventually find that you’ve re-invented a front-end, and there’s no end to it.
Yeah, I kinda chose the limits arbitrarily, but I don’t expect them to be an issue anytime soon.
This setup is also more flexible. I can in the future add comments from multiple lemmy posts, as well as other completely different sites.
Possible sure, but aside from the effort to make such a bot, posting to my own community would mean that very few people would see it, aside from those who already follow the blog. I have to pick a lemmy community, at which point I may as well do the rest of the work too. Now maybe I could have an llm analyze my post, fetch a list of communities, and then pick a likely one, but honestly this is getting too complicated
I was, but honestly there’s not much to write without getting into the specifics of parsing the lemmy api, because it’s literally just a fetch
call and then turning the response into nice html
Fediverse integration would require me to run, pay for and maintain a federated server. This takes me 50 lines of Javascript on a completely static site that cloudflare runs for free. It’s just so much easier
Nice! That works too
Oh much simpler, I just make a post with my blog as a link, and supply that link to my site and it shows the comments from that link. As I said, not actually federated. It’s basically a sort of frontend.
Not at the moment, since that would require parsing the markdown
Currently uses my home instance, lemmy.ml. I’d expect there to be some delay

YouTube may have a feature to normalize audio, I remember reading something about it
