Yes that sounds like a good idea. Unfortunately lemmy-ui isn’t getting many contributions so development is rather slow, but contributions are always welcome. I don’t work on that project myself, so I suggest you discuss it in the dev chat on matrix to make sure your approach will actually work.
I think the issue isn’t that the Lemmy developers don’t want these things to exist that you’re talking about, so much as them being the only ones in a position to make the changes or accept the PRs to make them happen.
Lemmy maintainer here, and I’m really curious what gave you this idea. We generally welcome all contributions to the project. On the backend I made a pull request to add plugin support which is waiting for feedback. Onthe frontend I havent heard any interest in a plugin system yet.
So if this is something you want, you’re welcome to implement it and open a pull request.
The highest temperature on this map is 37 degrees (south of Spain). Other places barely reach 30. This is definitely not a heat wave. Where I live the summer has been extremely cold so far.
10k is the price of a used car so it affects almost everyone. And with inflation the limit will go even lower over time. Its a bad plan all around, and gives more power to states which are already too powerful.
There is no need for any “green light”, if there was a problem with the rfc we would have said so from the beginning. From what I can tell the rfc is not completed yet, and when it’s completed someone still needs to step up to implement it. Even my own rfc which was finished months ago is still not merged and not implemented.
I can definitely say that this June was much colder than usual here in the north of Spain Spain. Lots of rain and low temperatures, it seems that summer is starting 1-2 months later than usual (similar to last year).
Finally, Lemmy appears to be run by developers who appear to be interested in their own issues and regularly appear to dismiss issues raised by users. This is not sustainable.
I would love to fix all the issues that users report, but for that we would need about ten times as many developers. The way it is we simply don’t have enough time to work on everything, and need to prioritize things.
Having another volunteer also means more work for us, as we need to communicate with this person regularly. It also means that we maintainers get more removed from the users, and wont be able to talk with them directly anymore. And in my experience, volunteers are very motivated in the beginning, but most of them get bored or busy after a while and then you need to find someone new again. Not really worth the hassle in this case.
Also the database issues mentioned in this thread may simply be from lack of ram.
Its easy to say this now, more than half a year later. But youre ignoring that we were completely overworked and exhausted back then. That said Im taking your feedback into account and will hopefuly to handle it better in the future.
