Thank you for putting your time and effort into this. It's people like you that make Lemmy such a wonderful experience!

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago

Making this app made me happy from the start to end, Lemmy has such a wonderful community that supported every step

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Can the account data also be saved offline for backups, or only synced to another instance?

Please consider this as a feature if not. Also the ability to backup posts and comments would be very welcome.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

The data is saved locally, I think it's relatively easy to export the DB and also import it later. I'll add to the issue list

Out of three instances, I've only been able to get this to log in to one of them. I'll try again later, maybe it's a network thing. Lemm.ee and lemmy.world are not logging in on this app, lemmy.ml is so far the only one that works.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lemmy.world was unstable a few minutes ago, but let me know if you could login after

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I just tried again, got all three of my instances logged in and synced up. Nice work, and thank you!

[–] GhostOfElectricity 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My .world account worked fine.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I retried and got all three instances logged in an synced. It's a slick little tool.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

so awesome. Thanks so much, this makes the possibility of having to change instance much less of a burden. 5*

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Any reason it would unsubscribe me from any communities? It looks like I was unsubbed from about five or six. Not sure which ones because the log scrolled by too quickly.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It syncs the accounts so if you unsubscribed from them in one account, it will unsub from the others

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Maybe it might make sense to define one account as main account. Then everything else gets synced with just that account. Maybe should be optional.

[–] GhostOfElectricity 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Synced my subs just fine, but not saved posts or blocked communities. Are those not working yet?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not yet, I'll implement it soon, probably next week it will be available

[–] GhostOfElectricity 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Cool. Otherwise it works as advertised so far. Thanks for making this!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Seems to be working, i'll check on my sh.itjust.works account.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It works fine and it's surprisingly fast!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Hell yeah! Thanks for the screenshots and feedback

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Wow that's really neat. I'll check it out then. Cheers

This is amazing.

The icon looks like it represents Eccentrica Gallumbits is the far-famed triple-breasted whore of Eroticon Six

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

https://hitchhikers.fandom.com/wiki/Eccentrica_Gallumbits

apparently is a "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" reference

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Come on people. Hitchhiker's Guide? The icon looks like 3 boobs? Ok ok

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You make me wish I had three hands!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is great, thank you! Got it installed and working in less than 2 minutes on Android.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Good to know, if you have any issues let me know

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I hope this feature gets built into lemmy apps

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

i do have a Rocky linux vm so id do minimal testing on rocky linux

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is it possible to prevent the app from unsubscribing you from communities?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

The current branch has a setting feature but I didn't released it yet due to tests I'm doing

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

When do you expect it to be available on FDroid/IzzyOnDroid?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

To be honest I have no idea how to deploy it there, but I have a list of issues to fix after a few people tested the app and I want to fix them before the next step
