I might try my hand at contributing. I have yet to do any open source development but really want to work on something lemmy related.

I was ready to put on some rose colored glasses and be all contrarian, but nah, you’re totally right

Personally I feel like the Mario movie was one of the best movies like that to come out. Sure it’s nothing too amazing, but for a video game adaptation it’s definitely up there. It does seem like everything has to be remade to be almost deliberately awful though.

Isn’t it also the case that each instance gets updates from all others? So in this case, lemmy.world’s access to beehaw communities might lack [email protected] activity and beehaw’s access lacks [email protected] activity?

But I also believe lemmy.world can see old beehaw stuff from before the defed, so that could play a role. I’m really just trying to wrap my head around all the network effects and repercussions, its confusing as hell.

I wanna give both of you props for your work on these. It’s pretty cool to see the community jump on things like this. I’ve been half considering an attempt to whip up an android app just for a personalized experience, but I’m worried I’ll be too ambitions lol

A lot of the discussion around sorting specifics makes me wonder if a plugin-like system for user created sorting algorithms would be useful.

It could allow you to curate your own feed in a way, based on age, activity, filters, basically any post metadata. The algorithms could be shared or maybe even federated through lemmy itself. I have a suspicion this would be closer to “neat” than “worth it” though. This is really just a brain dump of a random idea.
