Description:

Please add the ability for users to search within their own dashboards — similar to how Reddit allows users to search through content from their subscribed communities.

For example, if a user is on their dashboard and wants to find a specific post or comment (maybe one they made a year ago, or something they remember seeing), they should be able to simply tap the search button, type in part of the post title, content, or comment, and see relevant results — limited to content visible from their dashboard (i.e., posts from communities they’re subscribed to, or their own activity).


Why this is important:

Makes it easy to retrieve older posts or comments without remembering the exact community.

Enhances usability and navigation across subscribed content.

Provides a familiar and expected experience for users coming from Reddit.

Reddit previously experimented with live audio chat rooms, but ultimately discontinued the feature.

Given Lemmy’s unique position as a federated, open-source alternative to Reddit, should the Lemmy project (or individual instances) consider developing a similar voice chat feature?

  • What potential benefits could voice chat bring to Lemmy communities, especially considering the platform’s focus on decentralized moderation and privacy?
  • How might voice chat align or conflict with Lemmy’s core values of decentralization, privacy, and user autonomy?
  • What technical and moderation challenges could arise from implementing real-time audio communication on a federated network, and how might these differ from centralized platforms like Reddit?
  • Should such a feature be standardized across all Lemmy instances, or left as an optional plugin for instance admins to enable or disable?
  • How could Lemmy’s open-source nature and ActivityPub federation protocol influence the design, adoption, and interoperability of a voice chat feature across the Fediverse.
  • Are there existing open-source projects or protocols that could be leveraged to add voice chat in a privacy-respecting, decentralized way?

I’m interested in hearing from both users and developers about whether this is a direction Lemmy should explore, and what considerations should guide such a decision.

Exactly.

I didn't realize that Eternity had already done that.

I've mostly been using Aptoide.

 

Has Boost considered expanding its app distribution beyond the Google Play Store and Apple App Store by publishing on third-party App Store platforms such as Aptoide, F-Droid, Uptodown, etc.?

Rationale:

  • Wider Reach: Aptoide, F-Droid, Uptodown, etc. have millions of active users globally and do not impose regional restrictions, allowing Boost to reach users who may not have access to Play Store in their region.
  • Increased Accessibility: These stores support older Android versions and offer previous app versions, making Boost accessible to users with legacy devices.
  • No Upfront Fees: Developers can publish apps on Aptoide, F-Droid, and Uptodown for free, with flexible monetization options and no payment required for distribution.
  • Enhanced Flexibility: Uptodown, F-droid, Aptoide, etc. allow users to download, update, or roll back app versions easily, which can improve user satisfaction and retention.
  • Security and Trust: These platforms prioritize app security, with Uptodown using tools like VirusTotal for malware scanning and Aptoide employing a blockchain-based approval system.

Summary:
Listing Boost on Aptoide, Uptodown, F-Droid, etc. would make the app more accessible worldwide, especially to users outside the reach of mainstream app stores, and could help grow Boost's user base without additional distribution costs.

This makes me just sad.

The father sharing a irreplaceable moment with his child while the mother has to watch from the shore.

This is what extremist interpretation of Islam are doing to families.

Welcome to the team

I think that, when a user taps on one of the Subreddits, Voyager displays them via most subscribed Community first, then second, then third, etc.

[–] Teknevra@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago (2 children)

The way that it works is: when you enter the Multireddit link, it will show up like this:

And if you then tap on the link that you just added, you will get this:

And then, if you tap on one of them, depending on whether or not there is a Lemmy community alternative to the subreddit: you will either get this:

This:

Or this:

When I posted this in the Summit for Lemmy Community, aeharding, the Creator of Voyager, stated that it just used Lemmy search results, nothing fancy.

I would assume that you would be able to modify it easily, although you might need to add a link for each platform.
