To help expand Lemmy's offerings, I recently made a new Lemmy Community that's based around the show Once Upon A Time.

! Link: !once_upon_a_time@literature.cafe

Once Upon a Time is an American fantasy adventure drama series that aired from 2011 to 2018.

The show intertwines fairy tales with modern life, primarily set in the fictional town of Storybrooke, Maine.

The story follows Emma Swan, a bail bondswoman who is the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming.

She is brought to Storybrooke by her son Henry, who believes she is the key to breaking a curse cast by the Evil Queen, which has trapped fairy tale characters in the real world with no memories of their past lives. 

The series explores themes of hope and optimism as characters navigate their dual identities.

The series begins with the brothers searching for their missing father, who is also a hunter, and unfolds into a complex narrative involving apocalyptic themes, angels, and divine beings.

Throughout the series, Sam and Dean face numerous challenges, including personal sacrifices and moral dilemmas, as they navigate their roles in the fight against evil forces

Summary

Potential Implementation of a dedicated chat platform for Boost for Lemmy users, either through Discord or Revolt Chat, to foster community engagement, facilitate feature requests, and provide a space for user discussions.

Detailed Description

As a user of Boost for Lemmy, I personally believe that implementing a community chat platform could GREATLY enhance user experience and community engagement.

This idea is inspired by similar implementations in other Lemmy clients, such as Sync for Lemmy's Discord server.

Two potential options for this feature:

1. Discord Server:
   • Create an official Discord server for Boost for Lemmy users.
   • Advantages: Widely used, feature-rich, and familiar to many users.

2. Revolt Chat

• Implement an open-source alternative to Discord.
• Advantages: Aligns with open-source principles, potentially more privacy-focused.

Proposed Functionality

No offence, but, is it just me, or does anyone else find the Connect for Lemmy app to be incredibly laggy?

I've been experiencing some seriously frustrating performance problems that are making the app almost unusable.

Initially, I assumed it was my internet connection, and/or my mobile device causing the slowdown.

However, after thoroughly checking my network speeds and stability, as well as my phone, everything seems to be running perfectly fine.

Yet the app continues to crawl, with:

• Slow page/post loads
• Potential UI responsiveness issues
• Images not showing before I tap on them, and then, when I DO tap on them, they are all super pixelated.
• When I assign my profile image via the Web, no matter the image, when I tap on the image to expand it, in this app, it is always super pixelated and crunched up.
• When I tap on the Communities that I moderate via the sidebar, I keep getting told that there are no posts, no matter which moderated community it is. But if I check the

Currently, there's an official PeerTube app, but I have been wondering if they should instead potentially consider an alternative strategy similar to what Lemmy has done.

The proposal is this:

Instead of maintaining an official PeerTube app, what if PeerTube focused instead on being the core system and API, while encouraging third-party developers to create various client apps?

PeerTube could then concentrate on managing and improving the web app, api, etc.

Potential benefits of this approach:

1. Diverse ecosystem of apps catering to different user preferences
2. Reduced workload for the core PeerTube team
3. Increased community involvement and innovation

Potential drawbacks:

1. Lack of a "standard" mobile experience
2. Possible fragmentation of the user base
3. Quality control challenges

What are your thoughts on this idea? Would this approach better serve the PeerTube community and align with the project's go

Suggestion Overview:

PeerTube could potentially host and maintain an official, beginner-friendly server, similar in purpose to Mastodon.Social for Mastodon, or Lemmy.World for Lemmy.

Perhaps call it something like Peertube.Video, or something similar.

This server could function as an easy onboarding point for new users, enabling them to sign up and immediately start exploring videos without the need to understand or manage federated server distinctions.

This server could provide an experience akin to YouTube, where users can browse, search, and watch videos from both the local server and federated servers seamlessly.

By simplifying the experience, this initiative could help make PeerTube more appealing to mainstream audiences and lower the barrier to entry.

Features and Benefits

1. Centralized Onboarding for New Users

• Provide a trusted, official PeerTube instance that's beginner-friendly.
• Serve as a default place where individuals can si

Proposed Features:

1. Ability for Moderators to Edit Communities: It would be incredibly useful if moderators could perform administrative tasks for the communities they manage directly from the Connect for Lemmy app. This could include:
   • Editing community information (e.g., sidebar text, community rules, descriptions, etc.).
   • Managing community settings (visibility, posting rules, allowed content types, etc.).
   • Deleting or archiving a community if necessary.

Other third-party apps, such as Summit for Lemmy, have implemented similar functionality, and it would be great to see Connect for Lemmy adopt this feature as well. This would streamline the moderation process and eliminate the need to switch to a desktop or web browser for these administrative tasks, similar to when Reddit allowed Mods/users to manage their subreddits via the Reddit App.

2. Ability to Create Communities from the App: Adding the ability for users to create new communities

Hey everyone,

I started a couple of Harry Potter themed communities focused on various Harry Potter Ships.

They're based off of the Subreddits with the same names.

I'm hopefully looking for some potential moderators to help manage them, as well as some potential users.
