Making the fediverse accessible to all with Quiblr!

  • Thanks for the feedback. I just pushed an update to Quiblr. This should be fixed now for PWA

  • I appreciate the offer! I have localization features in my pipeline. I'll let you know

  • Ofc! Thanks for your support 💪

  • Fediverse @lemmy.ml

    Quiblr (Lemmy client) gets an open source update

    github.com /Technicolor-Dreamcoat/Quiblr
  • Ideally! I'm working to make it scalable to integrate as many fediverse platforms as I can. I'd love to include Piefed

  • Hi, sorry for late follow up on this. I did a write up on the Quiblr "For You" feed here

  • That is the long term vision. This has been just a passion project that I work on the side. But keeping it all react native has made it easier for me to manage 1 app for web, iOS, and Android.

    I didn't want to rush out a native version though. I want it to really utilize native functionality

  • Recommendations are entirely, 100% on your device. There is no association between your account and the recs. So there is no transfer of data to or from your account. You can log in with your current Lemmy profile and the recs will work all the same!

    The benefit of logging in is that you have more ways to interact on lemmy (so your recommendations will be more tailored)

  • Open Source @lemmy.ml

    The Quiblr Lemmy client goes open source

    github.com /Technicolor-Dreamcoat/Quiblr
  • A big swing, one might say

  • I tee'd you up for that one

    What do you call a lazy kangaroo? Pouch potato.

    Why did the golfer bring a second pair of pants? In case they got a hole in one.

    How does the ocean say hello? It waves.

  • Yeah, just 15 seconds and jot down a comment. Whenever I’m even hesitant, I just leave a comment. Doesn’t hurt anything and it can always be removed if not needed

    Easier to remove later rather than add it after the fact

  • I appreciate all the kind words! You are correct that it is a frontend with recommendation engine built in. And the speed likely comes from being a progressive web app.

    There are tradeoffs, but it definitely makes thinks "snappier" :)

  • I pushed an update to Quiblr. I added the instance detail to the Communities page. Additionally, the vertical 3 dot ellipses on each post has an option called Post Detail >> I added the original post url here

    Let me know if you have any additional feedback!

  • That is an effect of the dynamic sizing (adjusting the style for different screen dimensions) + it may be because the items are in a flatlist. I will add a dynamic image size setting option tonight to allow users to show the full image ratio rather than a standardized image size.

    Edit: dynamic image size setting is now live

  • I use Kofi for donations (button in the top bar). I build and pay for everything myself so support is appreciated!

  • Let me know if you have any feedback!

  • I see what you mean. To clarify, Quiblr as a platform is also 100% private. It doesn't even use Google Analytics. The only data that I collect is anything submitted via the Feedback form + Umami for analytics .

  • No. Posts are not downloaded and Quiblr is purely a frontend (you can choose which instance you want to use). The algorithm basically crafts the relevant API calls to populate the For You feed with content that matches your usage preferences. Those preferences and metadata are all stored on your device

  • I appreciate the kind words. And yes, I included a mechanism to constantly refresh and clean up recommendations so that it doesn't use too much memory

  • Quiblr is purely a frontend. It creates a standardized experience across Instances (including the feed personalization). Im not super familiar with Kbin. If it uses the same API as Lemmy then it should work.

    Long-term, I'd love to integrate more and more fediverse platforms into Quiblr

  • Privacy @lemmy.ml

    I built the first 100% private, on-device "For You" feed on the fediverse

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Are you worried about microplastics?

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Nothing is private on a farm. All the corn have ears.

  • Asklemmy @lemmy.ml

    Who in history (either present or in the past) do you think has had the biggest positive impact on humanity?

  • No Stupid Questions @lemmy.world

    Has there every been as big of a wealth gap in history as there is today?

    Why did the scarecrow win an award? Because they were outstanding in their field.

    Why can you not trust an atom? Because they make up everything.

  • Showerthoughts @lemmy.world

    Hair probably had an important function at some point in human evolution but now it's mostly cosmetic

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    What do you think would improve your Lemmy experience?
