  • This reminds me of one of my older projects. I wanted to learn more about network communications, so I started working on a simple P2P chat app. It wasn’t anything fancy, but I really enjoyed working on it. One challenge I faced was that, at the time, I didn’t know how to listen for user input while handling network communication simultaneously. So, after I had managed to get multiple TCP sockets working on one thread, I thought, why not open another socket for HTTP communication? That way, I could incorporate a fancy web UI instead of just a CLI interface.

    So, I wrote a simple HTTP server, which, in hindsight, might not have been necessary.


  • I discovered a channel called ‘Just Alex’ awhile ago, and I’ve binge-watched most of his videos. He makes videos about a variety of activities he engages in. For example, two years ago, he started beekeeping as a hobby. In these videos, he shows the progress he has made since then, taking care of his bees and harvesting their honey.

    He also has videos on collecting mushrooms, growing crops, and traveling around Europe.

    What I like about him is how calming his videos are and the amount of effort he puts into making them interesting, without resorting to clickbait content.










  • Thank you for the fast response!

    1. The saved post functionality is not implemented yet. I want to add this functionality in the following days.
    2. The “karma” score should be removed, I agree
    3. The subscription part is interesting. Is this on the main page or the subscriptions page?
    4. I’ve also experienced slow loading times, mostly on the main page. I believe this part of the code causes this issue
    5. Sadly, the “cannot fetch user info” error is shown right now when It fails to get the access token (for any reason). If you can provide me with some logs or open an issue about it, I can take a look at it.

    Thanks again for your quick review. If you spot any major issues with this build please open an issue on codeberg.


  • Hey!

    I’m the developer behind this project. I appreciate the honest feedback. You’re right, I might have jumped the gun with using the Infinity for Lemmy name. The last thing I’d want is to mislead anyone or step on the original dev’s toes. I mean, we’re all here because we love Infinity, right?

    I’ve been thinking about some new names, and right now “LemmInfinity” is what I want to go with. It ties us to Lemmy and still gives a nod to our Infinity roots. But I’m not totally set on it. Actually, I’d love to get more suggestions from you all.
