Yeah, as mentioned - Lemmy is often quite bad at sending the ‘Accept’ back for a Follow. It’s particularly the case if the instance hasn’t heard of you before, because in the process of fetching your user and instance details, it ‘forgets’ about the Accept. Within Lemmy, everyone’s sort of got into the habit of ‘Subscribe / Unsubscribe / Subscribe’. (where the first ‘subscribe’ lets them get your details, and the second one actually gets an ‘Accept’ back.)

PieFed is more reliable at sending ‘Accept’ back, so it’s maybe useful to check your logic from this end with a community from there, e.g. https://piefed.social/c/antisocialmedia

@darkpollo Oh, sorry. It turns out that that link worked because I’m logged in to defcon.social.

I’ve crowbarred your comment into my dev instance for PieFed instead: https://pythag.net/post/4695#comment_27962

@darkpollo I’ll have a go at answering some of your questions, until something better comes along.

1. Yes. Here’s your reply on another server: link

2. Yes. I tested out creating and then deleting stuff from a remote account, and this forum acknowledged both.

3. Remote users don’t get any privileges - their profile on this forum is just a text copy of the one they have on their own platforms. In terms of identifying local vs. remote (visually, at least), you can hover over users and see whether they have an ‘@’ in their name. You could do the same programmatically, but I imagine that there’s better ways.

@ericjmorey@discuss.online OP answered here: https://feddit.org/comment/4286281 (the lack of mobile apps, was the answer)

Oh, yeah. It’s still ongoing. You can track the progress at https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/src/branch/main/app/api/alpha/routes.py if you like. At the bottom of that page, things with a ‘Stage 1’ are what’s left to do.

The remaining stuff is mostly to do with chat / notifications. Once done, a basic app could be released, and then improved to include stuff that’s missing (things like uploading an image to post or a comment, and viewing reports)

EDIT: sorry, this was meant to be a reply to another comment. Still getting the hang of NodeBB. Now will this edit work …

@blaze@feddit.org Thunder is written using Flutter / Dart - meaning that it’s cross-platform. I’ve compiled the version for PieFed for windows, linux and macos, so as long as I’m able to get it working for Android, it should also work for iOS. I’ll need to be someone else who does though, 'cos my mac is too old, and I don’t have an iphone.
