The RIF dev, Talklittle, is building an app for tildes.net. But he's on the ferdiverse as well.

Personally, I'm really excited about that! I'm on Tildes as well and Tildes has become on of my favorite platforms that I discovered because of the API changes at Reddit. It has a small, but really nice community with great threads. I also really love the minimal interface: Fast and no distractions. Just text.

I still doesn't have a native app though and for some reason the mobile website is kinda sluggish on my phone. That might be my aging phone's fault, as it is a very quick site on my PC. but a RIF-like app would be amazing!

Edit: I just found out he showed a little preview for the app and asked for donations to Tildes (not to him, to Tildes. Because he is cool like that). Preview of the Tildes app here. I can certainly see the DNA of RIF in it! Just to be clear to anyone skimming through my comment: The is NOT an app for Lemmy (or Kbin)!

Edit 2: I'm on a different connection than last week now and now Tildes feels very responsive on my phone. So it was indeed a problem on my end.

the linux command line

And for that, I recommend Linux Journey. They have some resources on networking too!

Thank you for the offer, that's very very kind of you! I'll have to pass though, as I live on the opposite side of the world. But I can give you a suggestion: If they are collecting dust anyway, you could use them yourself for a cool little macropad and bind whatever you want to them. Could be a nice gift for friends/family as well :)

You can't login on another instance, but you can interact with them from your own instance.

See it as email: I could be using Gmail and you could be using Outlook, but we can still interact with eachother. We cab send emails to eachother. But when I want to send you an email I'm not going to use the Outlook website because you happen to use Outlook. I use Gmail and so my account is on the Gmail servers. So I login on the Gmail website to send you that email.

Wow, that's way less expensive then I thought! Seems like a fun project as well!

Thank you so much for all the info. This project is really compelling to me, so I might end up building something similar :)

Awesome! I can't wait!

It looks great! How much were the total costs? I'm considering building something similar

Very understandable and very exciting! Thank you for the info!

Very exciting! And Sync for Lemmy is even more exciting! Question, do you plan on adding Kbin support in the future? Maybe when their API is released?

You hit the nail on the head for me. I comment a lot more, I read more comments and all discussions seems to be way more constructive and people seem actually read eachothers points. I really hope this kind of interactions are here to stay, even when the ferdiverse grows.

I think your respons was very good. You put them into the same position as they did to you, without actually being an asshole about it. The "friend" that knew about your autism, yet says these kind of things about autism while you're there and gets mad when you try to tell them how it made you feel, doesn't sound like a friend to me. They sound like a self-obsessed asshole that wants empathy from others, but isn't empathic to others. I could be wrong, I don't know them. They could have had a heavy reaction because theg freaked out becausr they got called out in a relatable way. That wouldn't make their response okay, but could be forgivable if they genuinly apologized. If not, fuck them.

About the other friend: if you're close with them you could try to explain how it made you feel and what you struggle with. See how they repond. They might just be uneducated. But if they don't respond undersranding/apologetic, you might want to rethink your relationship with them.

Thank you for the transparancy!
