You should also include a link to sublinks or say what it is or something?
Interesting perspective
So LW is helping build it???
Yes, almost all team members are contributing code, designs, feature requests, etc. I called out @Rooki@lemmy.world specifically because he’s been a major contributor. One of the admins is actively recruiting people to help contribute to Sublinks, this is how we got so much support so quickly. It’s a very close collaboration. I owe a lot of thanks to the Lemmy.World team.
So LW is helping build it???
Don’t expect Lemmy.World to ever switch to it, though. Ruud sets up a new server for each bit of fediverse software. That’s why Calckey.World will not migrate to the Sharkey fork of that software and its users will only get encouraged to move over on their own.
Looks like it was updated to add it lw details. That is curious.

Hey, I remember your issue with the
latest
tag! Shame I missed the spawn of sublinks.You’re watching the spawn now! It’s still in development :)
Honestly i don’t think these are good enough reasons to create a new project, there are other open source reddit alternatives and non of them toke off, it’s hard to build a project like that and having NLNET funding might have made it seem easier then it is.
Forking might have been a better options, or just developing a sever addon API so you could create plugins like on wordpress or discourse.
I tend to believe competition is good but in this case it seems like it will just fragment the already limited resources of the fediverse.
I warned someone that the project he started probably won’t replace an existing popular project and eventually he seems to have abandon it, he could have spend that time improving the existing project.
I realize this is not feel good advice and i could be wrong, but i felt like i should say it.
What is an example of a good reason to start a new project?
Where there is some important design decision that the project leaders don’t want to change.
all this because of misuse of the
latest
tag and unwillingness to downgrade the version? lol seems a little excessive but hopefully it turns out goodThat’s an over simplified version. For the record, I couldn’t downgrade without data loss.
