Happy Saturday!

My fishing trip was great! But, as you've probably noticed, development has still not resumed. Recently the amount of free time I have to work on Voyager has dropped off a cliff due to some life changes. Voyager development will continue, but the pace will be slower or even paused at times. There's still a lot I'm really excited to work on!

Anywho, just thought I'd give you an update for transparency. Have a nice weekend!

Life always comes first! The app is running great and there hasn’t been many times I’m like “I wish voyager had this” sure more can be added but it’s in a great place right now.

I’m a programmer in training for my work so if I can help in anyway I can try ! Maybe I will do my own PR

The only thing that matters is the pictures of the fish (͡•_ ͡• )

Nice!! Blackfin?

Well the app is one of the best lemmy apps, perfectly usable for every day use. Maybe certain quality of life impoving features can be added but they are not a requirement and since it is a open source project, hopefully some users who know programming can contribute these features to voyager. Thank you for this great app

Hey, you managed to make it damn near perfect before your trip! Glad you had fun!

Thanks for an awesome app! It covers all the essentials already.

Any plans to onboard more contributors to help with the maintenance burden?

[–] aeharding 2 points 1 year ago

No plans at the moment, but it’s open source and I’m happy to consider pull requests! 😁

Glad you’re back & had fun on the trip. The app is damn near perfect as is for me. Just throwing that out there. Thank you for creating the app

Welcome back! I'm glad you had a good trip, hope your "life changes" as positive. Voyager is awesome, and I look forward to seeing further developments.

Glad to see you’re back! Even with the slowdown, Voyager is still the best Lemmy app I have used!

Welcome back! Is it a good time to mention that before you left for your fishing trip, you forgot to push 1.11.2 to TestFlight? 😐

[–] Carnelian 1 points 1 year ago

Oh dang, been using the test flight version the whole time lmao
