Thanks everyone who volunteered, going to reach out to some people soon (will be prioritizing people with programming.dev accounts)
edit: modded adr1an and dwraf to start off since I like to start communities with two mods. They can choose what they want to do past that. Ill be the primary mod for a bit and then will transfer that to someone in the future
If you want to run a bot against our api I'm able to whitelist ips to bypass the bot check. Feel free to reach out on matrix
Since you mentioned not knowing if this is the right community. For any question where you dont know where it goes !no_stupid_questions@programming.dev usually catches everything. Theres also some other question coms at !cs_career_questions@programming.dev and !ask_experienced_devs@programming.dev but theyre more specific. I can leave this one here though, its fine (especially since theres a bunch of info here now)
In order for posts to show up at least 1 person has to have subscribed to the community from this instance
I just subscribed to it which made it load the correct banner + community icon and I assume new posts should start federating when they get made
I assume less people will have subscribed from here to any lemmy.eco.br communities since we tend to have a lot more english users and the br instances have content mostly in portuguese
Thanks for the report, should all be fixed now
The comment language is set to german, do you have that disabled in your language settings?
Sometimes federation takes a bit, especially from some of the instances that go down more like feddit.de
I can see the comment on the thread you linked when checking it now https://programming.dev/comment/9725576
Whats the file size and file extension?
Hey! Im one of the programming.dev admins and the main mod of this community
I can look into taking over the pr once I get time for it later today or later in the week
Trending communities is scuffed and doesnt actually show trending communities. Usually if theres a new community made within the last 2 days it shows there otherwise it shows the most dead communities as they are getting large subscriber activity relative to their MAU
Vacant collects a lot of different kinds of communities ranging from unmoderated ones that havent been taken over yet by a new mod team to ones that are admin started to start getting some content on that subject (usually if thats the case ill be posting in it on my other account)
When you look at games made within the last 30 days, godot is double unity
Yeah pictrs has been having issues recently. Some images load but others dont and you cant upload any new images until we get it fixed
For anyone interested, advent of code is about to start! (first puzzles dropping at midnight ET which is in around 11 hours)
We have a community in the instance at !advent_of_code@programming.dev for discussion about the event and that will have solution threads where you can post and compare against other people
Advent of code is a programming puzzle advent calendar where new puzzles drop every day until the 25th. They can be done in any language and puzzles are released on the AoC site
First puzzles dropping at midnight ET, ill be making a solutions thread a bit after it drops after the leaderboard fills up a bit
Added a couple more buttons so you can see active communities from all connected instances as well
In addition youll see that the active users today is much larger values due to the site & community stats update I did in the instance where it now takes into account post and comment likes in addition to post and comment creations
(Note this and other updates wont be pushed out to the beta site likely until after 0.19 releases and the instance updates to it since ive been messing with the new authentication system)
Hey everyone! been a bit since I ran my last AMA so am running a new one. Feel free to throw down some questions below and ill answer them. (my AMAs are more asynchonous but everyone should get answers)
I'm a student in university and typically do both web and game development. Youll likely have seen me in the instance doing things related to community management to make sure things are running smoothly
Pangora is the name of the programming.dev lemmy fork thats been getting built up slowly with pangora-ui being the new frontend being made (very early alpha is up at https://beta.pangora.social/ and community on programming.dev is at !pangora@programming.dev )
Other misc topics I can answer about: I compose music & make pixel art, my favorite games are minecraft, SCP:SL, everhood, battlerite, and metal slug 3, and recent games ive been playing are Mistward, Revita, and Puzzmo
Pushed an update to https://beta.pangora.social/ that has the changes ive made to the site since the last alpha
Updates include:
You can view posts from multiple communities at once by setting them all in the url. Separate each community by a plus.
for example https://beta.pangora.social/c/programming+opensource will show you posts from both programming and opensource
If you want to add in a community in another instance add it in in the format community@domain
e.g. https://beta.pangora.social/c/programming+opensource+technology@lemmy.world+opensource@lemmy.ml
You can put a wildcard (star symbol *) instead of the instance domain to search for that community name in all instances
e.g. https://beta.pangora.social/c/programming@* will get all communities named programming in different instances
You can make a wildcard ignore a certain instance by first adding a minus sign after the wildcard (-) to mark a new rule, then an exclamation mark (!) to mark a negation, and then the instance domain
e.g. https://beta.pangora.social/c/programming@*-!programming.dev-!lemmy.zip will get all communities named programming in different instances except for the ones in programming.dev and lemmy.zip
You can combine the above as much as you want to get complex queries. You may run into rate limits if you add an extremely large amount of communities though
This is implemented only in the frontend currently so certain aspects will be broken
Hot and active sorts for multiple communities will not work
Added in some sections on the right side of the screen in the home page that shows the 5 most active communities, and the 5 most recently made communities
This is essentially the equivalent of the trending communities section in lemmy-ui but isnt using the severely broken hot community sort
Section in lemmy ui below
Also you might notice that some communities now have different gradient colors. I added in support for different community gradients and set some values for some of them. (Note this is all hardcoded into the frontend current until I touch the backend).
It also affects the colors of the community names in post feeds such as is done below
As well I made the site sidebar card and the new community list sidebar cards show information when javascript is disabled. Ill be going through and trying to make that happen for as many things as possible
The site theme now also follows prefers-color-scheme by default
Ill likely be changing how the home feed is handled a bit so that it can support javascript being disabled before I push things out to beta.pangora.social
I started implementing a feature that lets you see posts from multiple communities at the same time. Above ive got it pulling from 5 different communities.
Done by just listing all of the communities in the url with plus signs separating them. Its not pushed out to the pangora beta site right now but ill probably try to push out a build either this weekend or during the week
Currently just shows the first 50 from each, ill try to add some sort of addition to the backend in the future that will let me query for multiple communities so I can do the first 50 out of all of them so it doesnt have things out of order for the last post on a page and the first post on the next page
