I have a few communities that I lurk in as well and I use a clean RSS feed app to subscribe to sub’s old.reddit RSS feed.

I use the app NetNewsWire on iOS which is free and clean. If you then want to follow technology subreddit you add the feed https://old.reddit.com/r/technology/.rss into the app.

Hope that helps some fellow lurkers out there.

Pancake?

You realize you have a problem that you can solve with regex. Now you have two problems 😂

Great work on the app. It’s gotten to a point where I’m considering switching to it as my main (from Memmy/Voyager). I’m really enjoying the UI.

Same. I use an rss reader on my phone and have the best of sub as an rss feed in it. That way I can still read it decently from my phone.

I picked up cubing half a year ago, and set myself a goal of getting to sub-30. I just learned the last PLL algorithms today and now working on getting them into muscle memory. I’m averaging around 45s now, with my PR in the mid 30s.

I’m not looking forward to full OLL. If I’m ever going to do that.

I miss the option to not hide read posts when viewing communities, but only in the aggregated feed. Also showing usernames in compact view in the feed would be nice. I'd like to be able to recognize spammers quickly so I can block them.

I actually thought of it more as a purely visual combine. So each post still lives in its own instance, and visually you just see them together. Comment threads would live on different instances and the instance mods just mods the community that they own. So it’s a purely Frontend thing.

I think "World News" and "Technology" are not quite similar communities. It's up to the mods of each community to decide whether the content posted is appropriate to that community. One could argue, that an article about Threads is not exactly "World News" though. Also I think that the different variants of e.g. Technology will have a "flavor" of the instance that it's hosted on. You then get the option to subscribe only to the flavors you like, or if you subscribe to all, then there's bound to be some duplicates. Maybe some future feature could combine them - it would need to be clear which comment threads are from which instance though.

Okay, at least there's a way to bring them back. It would be awesome if we had the option to not hide in the community feed.

Same. I’m really impressed by the quality and speed of development. It’s quickly becoming by most used app - taking the spot from Apollo.

Yeah. The need here is for people to distribute across instances so the load is evened out. I’m still on the fence about what I think about the distribution being “interest”-based (there’s of course the Local filter which I haven’t used that much yet). I’m sure it’ll grow in me 🙂

Does it make that much of a difference which instance you’re on? I created an account here, but I’m subscribed to communities across the entire fediverse. Defederation can of course come into play, but unless you create an account in each instance that fits your interests I don’t see it making too much of a difference where your account has its home.
