Tesseract has been discontinued

That's a real shame, and a huge loss.

Friendly reminder that the only way lemmy can be successful is if we create a culture that is enjoyable to be a part of. It sounds like his time here was not so positive, and that's deeply saddening.

I wish him the best with his future endeavors

This project has been discontinued and the repo archived. I am done with Lemmy, the Fediverse as a whole, and have no desire to continue developing for the platform or (especially) the demographic thereof.

Wow, what the heck happened? Do we know the dev's lemmy username for any clues?

The average Lemming has the nuance of a wrecking ball

He’s not wrong lol. I can imagine how much worse it is as an admin. It’s unfortunate that Tesseract is going down with the ship. I remember I was among the first to provide feedback when he first posted it on lemmy.

Considering this is a Svelte project, it probably wouldn’t be too hard for me to fork (I’m a Svelte and SvelteKit dev). I’d definitely rewrite the UI, cause the current UI is… unpolished.

How much support could I expect to fork this project? Is there anyone that would be willing to help?

Thought this was about this tesseract

There are terrible people everywhere and in particular everywhere online.

This is why I would never be bothered moderating and I am reluctant to release anything to the public of what I do for my own enjoyment. Cheers to moderators and people that post their art and comics and other stuff online.

rip to the best client 🥹 and thank you for everything you've done PTZ.

Godspeed to @ptz@dubvee.org, hopefully we'll meet again virtually some day 🫡

Sorry not to hijack, but I’m in the process of adding PieFed support to my Lemmy client, if you’re looking for a new home. You can try it out at blorpblorp.xyz. I have a lot of work to do before I can live up to these more mature clients like Tesseract. Tesseract had some really nice media embeds that I’m missing.

Probably from so many people asking stupid questions.

rip

It sounds like he was severely trolled. Those aren't real people, they're either bots or paid accounts to make people leave. There are ways to counter act it, it's too bad he's given up. I wish him the best.

That was supposedly the best front-end we had, right? Sad to hear--I hope I can become good enough to help revive projects like this.
On a sidenote, what other frontends are to be used in the meantime? I'm hoping one of the few is still being maintained somewhat
