v1.9.13 fix PieFed

PieFed was broken if you

  • Block a person
  • Block a community
  • Moderate a community

That has all been fixes in v1.9.13

Next up!

Give those a try, and let me know if you like seeing early previews like that.

I’m trying to formulate a long term plan

  • Lemmy V1 is going to ship later this year. I suspect a lot of clients that aren’t maintained are going to break. I would like to get Blorp to a place where I can be a home for all those new users.
  • Anyone here who’s first language isn’t English? Interested in Blorp being translated into your language?
  • I have no idea how to market this app. I’m estimating I may have 400ish users. I honestly have no idea. Could be much higher or much lower. My marketing mostly consists of me annoying people on Lemmy into using Blorp. At least that’s how I percieve it, and I cring a little at myself.
  • I have no idea how to build out a team, but if you have any skills that you feel could contriute to this project, please don’t be shy. I would like Blorp to be bigge than myself.

First of al, thank you for your work!

I have no idea how to market this app. I’m estimating I may have 400ish users. I honestly have no idea. Could be much higher or much lower. My marketing mostly consists of me annoying people on Lemmy into using Blorp. At least that’s how I percieve it, and I cring a little at myself.

Posting it to !lemmyapps@lemmy.world, !fediverse@lemmy.world and !fediverse@piefed.social will probably help with awareness that it exists

You also might want to create another account on another instance, .ml tends to be blocked by a few instances

Yeah, I try not to get too involved with the drama, but I'm wondering if hosting this community on ml was a mistake because of the blocks.

But I think I have enough accounts lol

Lemmy.zip or piefed.social would be great instances to host your community
