Google Sheet traking Lemmy & Kbin mobile clients. Anyone w/ the link can edit.

Saw this too. Doesn’t appear to have a name yet.
Thanks for the heads up, but right now that has to be considered a rumor. Until there’s at least a community and/or repo, it’s vaporware.
That’s the guy that does pixelfed so it’s legit but understand the skepticism.
Sorry if that came off as dismissive. Was just saying Lemmy/Kbin/Squabbles(?) apps are “so hot right now.” Don’t want to chase down every rumor until there’s something more tangible than an “I’m doing this” post. I agree, it sounds great, though!
He also runs FediDB, so yeah, he has a great track record!
I hope that there will be more Kbin apps soon. I don’t really want to use Lemmy.
An app that supports any federated instance and multiple accounts would be ideal.
I’m surprised I don’t see more of this. Especially given that they all use ActivityPub. I know kbin is different than Lemmy, but an “all-in-one” app would be great.
And this could not have been done on CryptPad?
sigh
I’ve been looking for a feasible alternative to Gdrive and OneDrive for some time now, thanks for recommending this!
It still can be! ;-)
I updated the Kbin code link to read “soon” as Hariette announced last night that once the code base is in a good place she will open source the project. https://tech.lgbt/@hariette/110585379246580704
Been really enjoying Memmy. Has been getting updates at a super fast pace and already feels pretty good and featureful. More to go but the dev work has impressed me.
Agreed. So far, I think it’s my favorite of of the dedicated apps. wefwef.app is also pretty good.
I’m confused on how mobile clients work with Fediverse. Do they work with larger “threadiverse” like Lemmy and Kbin themselves or do they access it through specific Lemmy/Kbin instance? If it’s the latter, does this mean they use Lemmy-specific and Kbin-specific APIs?
Kbin is different code, and Lemmy is different code. Whatever instance you’re on, if you made an account with a Lemmy-based instance then you login to Lemmy and thus use a Lemmy oriented app. Same for Kbin. If you use an instance that’s using Kbin code (I know there are others but I’m only aware of kbin.social right now) then you login to it using a Kbin oriented app.
As for the content, it’s all federated and if it works properly then you should be able to see Lemmy and Kbin content regardless of what app you’re using, with the exception of content from defederated instances (regardless of whether they use Lemmy or Kbin). The sharing of content happens using ActivityPub which, while external of both Lemmy and KBin, are used by both (and many others like Mastodon) for the federation thing to actually take place.
In practice you wouldn’t have to worry about it, except for choosing what app to use and whenever you’re searching for communities on other instances (which on kbin search is something like “community_name@instance.name”). That’s how I understand it at least.
This is the definitive answer
You would use the app to login to a specific instance, and access federated content through that instances API
I’d suggest changing the link permission to “anyone can comment” instead, as any ill-intended individual can grief the file as it is now. Then those who moderate the file can approve or deny new entries.
Fair point. I’m keeping an eye on it right now. If it gets out of hand, I’ll do that. Everyone seems to be behaving so far, though. Fingers crossed.
You should definitely change it now, before something happens.
Just did… actually lasted longer than I expected! Someone was removing all the community links and replacing them w/ the code repo links. Restored and cleaned up. The access is now comment only to anyone w/ a link.
