I plan on experimenting with the suggestions posted here. That way I can narrow down where the problem is

The live website works on desktop and mobile. The offline folder works well on desktop, but it has issues on mobile, such as the search bar not working

That would work

I’ll check it out

Thank you, I’ll try those

I was chatting with a friend, and she mentioned how she tries to at least set up a README, which includes her vision for the project and her plan for the implementation, design, and goals.

Best case scenario is that the planning helps her complete the project herself. Worst case scenario, someone else can pick up where she left off and use her considerations for the project.

I’m thinking of doing that for future projects too

This doesn’t answer the Linux part, but on FDroid there’s something similar as “Retro Stack”

Thank you for sharing! This is my first project like this so I’ve got lots to learn. I’m going to try and contribute to a few other ones so try and learn what it’s like

We actually have an extension for this, it’s one of the more popular extensions for Lemmy&Kbin, going by the counts on chrome/firefox stores:

!instance_assistant@lemmy.ca

It was originally made to solve this problem, but we’ve been adding other features as well. Right now you can redirect communities and posts, and redirect links by right clicking on them.

Let me know if it works, and also where it doesn’t so that we can improve it :)

Good to know, could you share what website you were trying to post from?

I think one thing I should implement is a little toast message that explains what went wrong (ex. No title contents found)

Hope it helps :)

Sorry to those that have already seen this. I’m trying to space out the posts so it’s not in a large clump in your feeds. People have different subscription lists, so I’m trying to reach those that haven’t seen it yet.

These are the last 4 posts :)

Thank you, hope it helps!

Oops, I definitely did

Should be fixed now

I was so excited when I finally got it working :)

There ARE other downsides to this law, outside of the hissy fit Facebook is throwing.

For example, smaller independent news companies don’t have the bargaining power to come to a fair agreement with Facebook, like the larger organizations can. A solution to that might be to have some standard rates set up, but again, don’t know enough about it

I don’t agree with the solution the government came up with, but the problem still exists and I don’t understand it well enough to come up with an alternative solution.

Making news is expensive, and good quality news (not mucked up by corporate interests) needs a way to fund that work. We don’t want news to be an outlet for corporations investing in a mouthpiece. So traditionally this was done through advertising.

Now people barely ever click through to the websites so the advertising doesn’t work. Meanwhile the places where people ARE seeing the news do have ads. The content is produced by one party, and the profit goes to another.

The problem exists and needs a solution, but I don’t know what it might be. Australia brought in a similar law successfully and Facebook/Google came to a deal. Canada might also be able to do that?

The other long term solution IMO is to make the platforms obsolete with things like Mastodon and Lemmy. That might take some time though

Not really emergency notifications but news, which tbh isn’t as important in this case because non-Canadian news orgs aren’t affected and are covering it too. So there isn’t an immediate risk I don’t think.

As for the main point: The problem is that a subset of the population ONLY gets information through one platform. The only way to reach them is through that platform, and not reaching them means excess costs when you have to rescue/treat/otherwise deal with the fallout. It’s also the government’s job to inform people and keep them safe.

At the same time, the companies need to be regulated by the government. Can’t just let them have free reign because they seized control

Yep, it works perfectly

Bitwarden has it too, but eggs in one basket etc.
