New update is nice!
  • Comment design is on my todo list for a refresh. I thought the design was going to work but after using it myself, it doesn’t hit the mark.

    Right now it’s a drawer at the bottom of the post view that you can pull up to comment.

    If you want to reply to a comment you should be able to swipe a comment from the left to the right and that’ll mark it as reply to.

    Right now you must be subscribed to Echo+ in order to comment.

    New update is nice!
  • Thanks so much for trying it out! Much much more to come, so stay tuned.

    As for the refresh thing, thanks for the report. It’s on my list to resolve. I’ll add a +1 to that item to bump it up on the priority list. Not quite sure when it’ll be resolved, but hopefully soon.

    Is there a way to determine if a user sign-up application is pending solely based on the server instance URL and the username?

    It looks like even when the application is pending the profile page is created and is live. So that doesn’t really help me determine that.

  • This is probably going to change in the near future. A lot more functionality is being added to Echo+, and so a lot of this stuff will probably change soon. A lot of users however choose to only read content from platforms such as Lemmy. So the base app (free) focuses on reaching to reach what the maximum amount of users do on these platforms.

    I truly appreciate your feedback tho. It's something I really do take to heart, and will continue to think about and assess. Any updates will be posted at !echo@eventfrontier.com.

    Get list of users subscribed to community?
  • Yeah ok. My server only has me as a user (minus a few test users). And all local communities are fairly small, so doesn't really help me.

    So last paragraph really applies.

    Might make a feature suggestion on the Lemmy repo for this. Would be super interesting data to analyze.

    Thanks for your reply tho! Really appreciate it.

    2
  • Is there a way to get a list of users subscribed to a given Lemmy community? Trying to do some Lemmy wide data analysis using that information.

    Or alternatively, is there a way to get a list of communities a given user is subscribed to?

    Overview

    Echo for Lemmy needs to connect to a Lemmy server to function. These servers are Lemmy servers that are responsible for hosting your account, content, and more. Think of your server similar to your email provider (ex. Gmail, Yahoo, iCloud, etc.).

    Some servers are private meaning that you must get manual approval from the server admins in order to join. Other servers are fully public and you can join without any approval.

    What to look for when choosing a server?

    When choosing a server, you should consider the following:

    • Reliability: You want to choose a server that is reliable and has a good uptime. This will ensure that you can access your account and content whenever you need to. Server admins are under no obligation to keep their servers online, so it's important to choose a server that is reliable.
    • Moderation: Each server has its own rules and guidelines when it comes to content moderation. Some servers are more strict, while others are more lenient. Make sure to read the server's rules before joining to ensure that you are comfortable with them, and that they align with what you are looking for.
    • Privacy Policy: Each server has its own privacy policy that outlines how your data is collected, stored, and used. Make sure to read the privacy policy before joining to ensure that you are comfortable with how your data will be handled.
    • Language: While not required, it is recommended to choose a server primarily in your preferred language. This will make it easier to communicate with server admins in the event that you need to contact them.

    Due to the decentralized nature of Lemmy, you will be able to interact with users and communities from other servers. Similar to how you can send an email from Gmail to Yahoo, you can interact with users from different servers on Lemmy.

    How do I join a server?

    In Echo, you can join a server by entering the server's URL into the search bar, or scrolling through the list to find the server you are looking for. If the server is public, you will see a "Sign Up" button that you can click to create an account on that server after tapping on the server. If the server is private, you will not see a "Sign Up" button, and you will need to contact the server admins to request an invite.

    If you already have an account on a Lemmy server, you can find the server's URL in the list of servers or search for it in the search bar. Once you find the server, enter your login credentials to access your account.

    How to create a server?

    You can also host your own Lemmy server. This requires technical knowledge and resources to set up and maintain the server. If you are interested in hosting your own server, you can find more information on the Lemmy documentation.

    High CPU Usage

    After upgrading Lemmy from 0.18.5 to 0.19.1, the lemmy_server process is taking up 200-350+% of my CPU. Although I haven't seen it max out my CPU yet, it's getting dangerously close at times.

    Any thing I can do to fix this?

    I'd be fine with downgrading temporarily if this will require a Lemmy fix, but I'm not seeing any documentation on how to do that. I'm assuming DB migrations were run between those two versions (which might make that complicated).

    2

    Does Lemmy have anyway to pre-fill the Create Post details from the URL? For example Reddit allows for: https://www.reddit.com/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstackoverflow.com%2Fquestions%2F24823114%2Fpost-to-reddit-via-url&title=Post%20to%20Reddit%20via%20URL.

    I'm aware that this gets slightly tricky across instances (due to different domains), however I was hoping to build a system where the user enters their Lemmy domain, and it takes them to a page so they can create a post about a given URL.

    Any ideas?
