targetx ( @targetx@programming.dev ) English11•1 year agoLemmur looks nice but I can’t seem to add a new instance (I’m on programming.dev). Does that work for anyone else?
𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒆𝒍 ( @maniel@lemmy.ml ) English4•1 year agoIt’s unmaintained
zinklog ( @zinklog@lemmy.fmhy.ml ) English4•1 year agoYea I think it’s broken right now
10_0 ( @10_0@lemmy.ml ) English3•1 year agoThey stop development on lemmur which is a shame because jerboa blocks instances arbitrarily which is a big L for federation
Kyoyeou (Ki jəʊ juː) ( @Kyoyeou@lemmy.world ) English5•1 year agoBlocks instance? In what way?
10_0 ( @10_0@lemmy.ml ) English1•1 year agoTo my understanding, the app is developed by the admins for Lemmy.ml, and when I tried to add wolfballs it didn’t work (haven’t tried since, so it might’ve changed, also didn’t have this problem with lemmur)
CosmicSploogeDrizzle ( @cosmicsploogedrizzle@lemmy.ml ) English3•1 year agoJerboa isn’t an instance. It’s just an app. If a community hasn’t been indexed yet, then Jerboa can’t find it in search. You’d need to use the website to do that first. Once added it should then show up in search for others on your instance in Jerboa. The only thing that can block instances is other instances.
CosmicSploogeDrizzle ( @cosmicsploogedrizzle@lemmy.ml ) English10•1 year agoRedreader dev said they were going to build their app to work with lemmy, hacker news, and other sources. Hopefully others follow.
When there were limited options for reddit, devs came and build the first apps. There is opportunity in lemmy now, so I’m sure others will pivot
Venus ( @Venus@slrpnk.net ) English3•1 year agoAs far as I know, not yet.
tallwookie ( @tallwookie@lemmy.ml ) English3•1 year agoan untapped market!
Moonrise2473 ( @Moonrise2473@lemmy.ml ) English2•1 year agoLemmur is discontinued, there’s only jerboa at the moment
psudo ( @psudo@beehaw.org ) English2•1 year agoWhat is it that you dislike about Jerboa, since Lemmur is now unmaintained? I’m unlikely to spin up a new app, but I think knowing what people want would help either improve Jerboa or at least point anyone who does want to start a new app in the right direction.
There is no search function currently. I understand Jerboa is pretty much a work in progress, but the sudden spike of Lemmy in popularity makes the thing more urgent
psudo ( @psudo@beehaw.org ) English2•1 year agoThere is a search functionality, it just depends on what your instance has cached and definitely isn’t perfect. I’m on beehaw, but here you can see some lemmy.ml communities that I’m not subbed to showing up in my search:
Good! But I’m struggling to find it. Where is it?
