Hi hi, I know I posted about this yesterday-ish, but Slemmy is now deployed! Head to https://slemmy.libdb.so to give it a try! Simply make a profile with your favorite instance and continue!

If you haven't seen yesterday-ish's post, here are some screenshots of Slemmy: https://imgur.com/a/KJqKuiF

Unfortunately, there's no signing in yet, so you can't do much besides reading posts. I'm actively working on this, though!

The project's source code is at https://github.com/diamondburned/slemmy. Its README contains the current features and what is planned for now. I started on this project not even a week ago, so it's likely unstable and not ready for heavy use yet. Please open an issue if you encounter any bugs, I would really appreciate it!

The websocket API is being deprecated in 0.18.0 (next major release)

I don't really have a choice here, see https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3109

I've been trying to delve deeper into the issue, but I'm having difficulty understanding it completely. It seems to be related to Lemmy itself, and I wonder if it's hindering developers from creating their own alternative front-ends?

Wow! That's great! Super responsive! Thank you! :-D

This is the kind of thing I'm waiting for! A backend lemmy with this kind of front end.

Instead of Mastodon I now run GoToSocial as my backend and Semaphore as my front end.

THIS is what I LOVE about Open Source!

Thank you very much for your hard work and making the Fediverse more diverse and unique! :-)

Great job!
