In the services, the "events" all of those can be hooked into. In our case the only thing that is missing is a way to load a plugin into the software is missing. But it is comming up and if someone really needs that urgently a custom build, it is really easy to integrate a logic into it and build it into a custom build, by simply putting it into a custom file and then pulling upstream for updates.
Ok thanks never knew about such discussion! But it is missing like hooks, events, triggers. Otherwise a plugin is almost useless and just hooking directly to the db would be more effective.
External bots, have one big downsode that kills it for most "plugin" use case, it is pull, many use cases want a push method over a trigger, event or similar. And to fetch the api every second is inefficient if you say so. Direct db access is not available for everyone.
Thanks for your feedback, sadly lemmy is not in that stage and is not build for plugins in mind.
The sublinks team didnt meant to be too specific on some questions, i will give your idea to the sublinks team for any further surveys.
Sublinks is already heading there where you can listen to events, trigger events etc. but yeah instance plugins would be very cool and could be easier used by third party developers improving the current platform they support.
Its a stupid take, to dismisy java and JuSt UsE RuSt. We chose java for a reason, we want to get going with development, that cant be done with slowly building up a rust team. As they are already bussy on lemmy. So it would be just a fight for developers too.
We chose that, as we already saw the things that can be done wrongly with rust. And no one of the sublinks team can do rust really, so it was just a matter of what languages can be learned faster and/or have already good knowledge about a programming language.
If you really want performance, please write your code in binary, then you have no compiler, no runtime just plain binary code, it will be fast but unreadable ( like rust if wrongly done ). Java is just a good old and known programming language. There are already some techniques to improve performance and / or cluster your application up. With an load balancers. Something like lemmy tried, but a little bit easier and extendable.
EDIT: I am sorry for the previous text, i was a little too moody there, so the downvotes are probably justified ;)
The prevalence of Linux users on this platform is common knowledge.
Yes we all knew that, but because of convenience and we didnt wanted any issues with accusations that we correlate ips that accessed the self hosted form with lemmy user ips, so we chose to use Microsoft Forms
Better mod tool and a more common and well known programming language. A seperate team for UI/Design and API, so that the development goes faster and goes to multiple checks before it gets released. It is lemmy api compatible, so your iphone or android app will still work.
Sublinks has a roadmap too, to give everyone a glimpse where everything is and what is planned. And Sublinks developers welcome everyone that want to support the project, even non developers that want to input their ideas or personal experience.
Sublinks will add some moderation tools for mods and instance admins, to have a better control over their instance and to reduce spam, trolls or illegal content ( not pirated but that BAD porn stuff )
I would have asked the same question, just do it earlier than later or then add a note, on where to find your new community if you want to move your community too. That is sadly a software limitation and would be irritating if a whole community can just swap instances.
The ide could crash in a weird way and thus crashing the whole system, had some crashes on some intellij IDE's but i never crashed.
Do you still use Cloudflare Zero Trust client? If not, best remove that, to at least remove that possibility. Check some logs of your IDE to check if they logged some errors. Check htop ocasionally too, could be something that is eating resources too.
What packages did you update recently? Do you have a backup to rollback to?
Otherwise i dont have the experience with wayland.
And i assume you use a ubuntu based distribution, can you tell us what exactly?
