Thanks so much! <3

Yeah, we also call them communities

Nice! Thanks a lot!

Thanks!

I don’t have a twitter account. What does it say?

Lemmy.World isn’t developing it. Some of their team members are contributing but they didn’t start it. I did. I’m the admin of discuss.online

This is correct, thanks a lot!

It’s actually extremely buggy. Not sure if we’ll fix it or find something else. Perhaps something you suggested.

I setup https://github.com/deck9/input on polls.sublinks.org. We’ll use this next time.

It’s a reputable web development language and Spring Framework is very robust. I knew it would make development very quick and easy. Also, everyone learns Java just a little so I feel like it’s easy for the average person to contribute. Rust is certainly fun but Java is tried and true. The organization of the Lemmy project’s code vs Sublinks is night and day. It’s so easy to extend and grow Sublinks.

Great summary!

Easier but not what I thought was needed. We need more choice!

That’s not true, I wrote a blog post about it: https://jasongr.im/blog/why-i-started-sublinks/

I tried that the but API lacked a lot of features that they were too busy to add, like proper pagination to find the latest changes, etc. I started a project like that first called socialcare.cloud but have since shut it down in favor of Sublinks.

Java isn’t my preferred language. I did learn Rust to try to contribute but found the code base in less than ideal state and the process of contributing to risky. They don’t always accept all PRs. I also have low faith in the success of Lemmy due to it’s poor QA process and it’s major lack of features.

I believe Java is the best option for this type of application, I almost did it in PHP. My goal was to attract as many people as possible to want to contribute. It’s worked, I have a ton of people contributing in some way, Sublinks roadmap is clear and organized, and we have a super-motivated and driven team.

We won’t fail.

I was hoping not to have to host it myself. I won’t need it often. I was mostly curious about a Saas. Thanks though!

Is there a better form service to be used? We used it because it comes free with our email.

Thanks so much for sharing it!

Thanks so much for filling it out!
