This is not a “mistake”. This clearly proves they have Apple TV app integration implemented (just turned off). And someone accidentally turned it on.

But they have clearly put in effort and work into adding this functionality.

New functionality doesn’t just happen by mistake.

@dessalines@lemmy.ml Thanks for the information here and all the hard work you have put into this release.

Gotta say tho, as the maintainer of Lemmy-Swift-Client, breaking API changes like this without an API version bump, make API development within the community incredibly difficult.

So my question to you would be, what is the purpose of having v3 in the API path, if the true test of API compatibility is the GetServerResponse version field? And breaking changes will occur in GetServerResponse version changes as opposed to the version in the API path? That doesn't quite make sense to me.

Would love your perspective so I can figure out how to best design the package API to accommodate client developers who might have to contend with multiple server versions.

So if you were moving to another home or apartment, is it a reasonable strategy to stop paying rent at your current home while you’re looking for a new place? Of course not. Same idea here.

What? I'm not following. Steam isn't federating with anyone. This is about having a link to an external site. Nothing more. Has nothing to do with federation directly.

Ads too 😉

I was lucky to get in in the early days when posting Mastodon handles on Twitter was common so was able to easily migrate. But this is a problem with ActivityPub right now I feel like. Discovery algorithms can be awful in the timeline, but so useful for finding people/communities to follow.

The craziest thing is that Elon’s tweets are still completely visible.

I have a lot of them from Beehaw.org. What I didn't expect is I still seem to be seeing posts from those communities in my subscribed feed.

For Mastodon there is something called Tootpick which allows you to enter your server's domain and share any content by redirecting the user. For example: https://tootpick.org/.... So I'm not quite sure the federated nature argument makes sense. Sure it's more complicated that a centralized system, but possible regardless.

@MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz If the instance is overloaded, how do you still get posts then?

Does the subscription being pending remove any functionality or change the behavior at all?

Check back in 24 hours or so. If it still isn't available, please let me know.

Personally, that isn’t how I think about a smart home system. There isn’t a need to do major changes until maybe you need to get it replaced anyways. Starting with things like lights, a few shades, door sensors, are good ways to start. The biggest question is what do you want to get out of it?

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.

Thanks so much! 🎉 Native is the only way to go imo 😝. I’ll make a PR this weekend.

Might also have some comments on the Lemmy API eventually, but I’ll save those for a later date haha.

Thanks for all you do for Lemmy.

Thanks! Better image support (including GIF support) is on the roadmap. Will look into the clipping issue shortly. Stay tuned to !echo@eventfrontier.com for updates.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your support. As mentioned, this is only the beginning. Lots more improvements coming 🎉. And if you ever have feedback, suggestions, ideas, problems, etc. be sure to let me know!

I know I'm not necessarily the target audience for this. But it feels too expensive. 6x the price of Cloudflare R2, almost 13x the price of Wasabi. Even iCloud storage is $0.99 for 50 GB with a 5 GB free tier. But again, I know I'm not necessarily the target audience as I have a lot of technical skills that maybe average users don't have.

If you ever get around to building an API, and are interested in partnerships, let me know. Maybe there is a possibility for integration into !echo@eventfrontier.com 😉.

My guess is this is the service that has the backlink feature in the top left near the time. So when you open an app, you can easily go back to the previous app.

But, it seems like a bug in iOS that this shows up in your screen time.

Your instance is the one that federates. However it starts with a user subscribing to that content. Your instance won’t federate normally without user interaction.

Normally the solution for the second part is relays. But that isn’t something Lemmy supports currently. This issue is very common with smaller instances. It isn’t as big of a deal with bigger instances since users are more likely to have subscribed to more communities that will automatically be federated to your instance. You could experiment with creating a user and subscribing to a bunch of communities so they get federated to your instance.

What is your region?
