I was trying to search for [email protected] so I could subscribe with this account. However, I couldn’t find any of the midwest.social communities aside from the synthesizers one. Is that by design, a bug, or am I doing something wrong?
My process: open Communities. Search [email protected]. I leave the Community and Creator fields set to All. Search again as I’ve seen some people instruct to do. Nothing populates.
It seems like a good candidate for a hypermedia-type front end as reactivity is minimal on a forum. That would hugely simplify and speed up development. Are you familiar with HTMX? Basically you render everything on the server and send it in pieces as needed and avoid needing to manage state on the front end. I haven’t seen any features on Lemmy that would be noticeably less reactive. Anyway just a suggestion
I have but technically building something like this is trivial. It’s a community problem to run a site. And Lemmy will do fine.
Well I’ll leave the tech stack to you, but if you want any help on the UX/design end of things I’m happy to put in some effort
I actually think that would be great on the mobile app I am working on. But let’s first see where this community is going.
