Admin of kbin.earth, creator of Interstellar.
Also on kbin.social: @jwr1
I think the spacing for the cards might need to be adjusted anyway, but yeah, some sort of dense layout mode would be good to add.
If you have any feedback for Interstellar (the only Mbin app I know of), please share. I use the app daily, and it works great for my use case, but I don’t automatically know what other people would like until they communicate it. (I’m the dev, btw)
Mbin does support microblogs. I believe there’s a “Microblog” button in the navigation bar for desktop, and the same button found in the side drawer on mobile.
The migration to Mbin is complete! Let me know if you run into any issues.
Sounds good! Migration probably won’t happen today, but maybe tomorrow or the day after if we get lucky. Unfortunately, I ran into a problem while trying to set up Mbin due to one of the mbin/kbin dependencies suddenly disappearing out of the blue (see here).
No, we haven’t migrated yet. I just decided to fix that first.
Ok, I was able to figure out what was wrong. All registration and password reset emails should be working now.
Sorry about that, and thanks for letting me know. I had no idea the email system was down. I’ll probably try to look into it after the migration to Mbin. I’ve gone ahead and manually verified each user from the past week, so you should be able to sign in now.
Just curious, what was the reason for blocking those first three instances?
That’s great! I’ll add it to the recommended instances section once I get a change.
Maybe @jerry knows what’s going on? Is it possible oauth client creation is restricted to admins on fedia?
Maybe because Google doesn’t think it’s popular enough, I’ve noticed that too though. The search does work if you search the app id directly though, like one.jwr.interstellar
.
If you’re trying to login to your fedia account, I’ve noticed that server doesn’t seem to work (which is why it’s not in the recommended instances section). It’s probably an issue with how they setup the api (you’ll notice other mbin instances work with interstellar just fine).
kbin.social is also showing 404 for me at /sub. https://kbin.social/*/sub still seems to be working though.
It’s possible we could add sublinks support to the Interstellar app when the time comes. It already supports microblogging for kbin/mbin and is built with multi-software compatibility in mind; it currently supports kbin, mbin, and lemmy and could easily add support for sublinks.
I literally just finished doing the same thing for my own foss app (and I also used Flutter). Right now I’m waiting for my production review. To get people added to your closed test, you have to either collect a list of email address, or create a google group they can join. If you use a google group, that will be a bit easier for testers to join since people can click the group link, and then the test link, instead of waiting for you to add their email.
If you can’t initially get all the testers you need, I would recommend making a post on the AndroidClosedTesting reddit; I found them really helpful to get the last few testers I needed.
Looks interesting. Would kbin support be added at some point?
Agreed
Also, someone should make a dedicated community to Linus Torvalds quotes.
You can have only one installed, and Fedora KDE ships this way. If your distro doesn’t offer that, it seems like a distro packaging issue.
Thanks for the info; it does look like that’s how my distro packages it.
make it easier to change file associations for common file types
That’s in Plasma 6. :)
That’s awesome to hear! It’s a problem I’ve had for a while, so I’m glad it’s being worked on.
Anyway, I just want to say I really appreciate all the work y’all have done over the years; I’ve been using plasma for the past 6-7 years, and it’s a desktop environment like no other.
Have you tried sterling pdf? It has a ton of PDF tools and it’s Foss.
