Huh interesting. I immediately had a positive reaction to the name because of this. Love Firefox. already loved Calckey err I mean Firefish though so I suppose I am not objective.
It really conveys the open and user control centric nature of the project. An homage to the fox. You have now not just the fox but the fish with which you can tame the raging fires of the web. Fish makes more sense than fox too cause the web is like an ocean. Idk just thoughts
Imo more people would use them if they were called something clearer. Saved search. Custom timeline or feed. Something like that. But yeah they are awesome
Omg of course! I have Mlem set up. And indeed it does have filters in the settings.
I guess I've been using the web app and Wefwef PWA more than Mlem but this is probably reason enough for me to use it over others - until they hopefully build it in too!
Thank you.
Edit: Looks like it's a hard filter only -- fine by me.
Have you played Eastward? Unless I’m mistaken Earthbound is part of the game and plot. If you like Earthbound you might like Eastward. I enjoyed it even having never played Earthbound but I’m sure I missed a lot of references / analogies.
This is absolutely the truth. Ruby (Mastodon) and PHP are far more than enough to get the job done, and being good at your job (building a product) is more important than using the latest or greatest tools.
That said, these examples often have great existing products and communities keeping them in the conversation. OCaml is good enough for Jane Street but that doesn't mean it's the best or go choice. Such wars or discussions are definitely shallow when focused exclusively on the syntax and semantics
If you follow folks (shameless plug of myself - like me) on Calckey.social, which is I think a bigger server. That may help! When I moved to Calckey I transferred over everyone I was following on Mastodon
I used to use Alien Blue and then moved to Apollo and it was good enough for me. Id ask what app(s) you used but I don't really care about reddit apps anymore 🤷♂️ Unless they upgrade to work with Lemmy
Woah. Well this is terrifying
