The biggest problem I’ve seen is people posting from your instance aren’t even getting the replies from the main one synced. Viewing the thread there shows 3 or 4 posts while there’s at least 10 and who knows if there’s any missing from other instances.

Ah I noticed this on Jerboa as well, there isn’t an option yet to make it a default feed. I have to manually select Subscribed (Lemmy) / Home (Connect) everytime I open up the apps.

I reinstalled Connect just now and am making this post from it. There must have been an update since I tried it because now I can make it only show me communities I’m part of. I’m also able to block communities. And for some reason it shows me your deleted post whereas other things have shown it as deleted. Although I do remember something about deleting stuff not being consistent on lemmy.

I’m not sure exactly how the subscriber count works, but I think it supposed to show how many people are subscribed from your instance

That makes sense I guess but it’s kinda confusing if the other numbers aren’t instance based. And if they (posts and so on) are instance based I think that’s a bad idea.

But I think its just cause not enough people who use the app made the jump. I really made the original post to gauge how interested people were in the community. I think if people on Lemmy have Tasker questions, there will be posts made at some point!

Since reddit just works I expect most people won’t care to move or even think about it. Another thing is, if most of the lemmy apps are currently kinda broken, why not just stick with the crappy official reddit app and stick with the community you’re used to (assuming the mods haven’t broken it like /r/firefox)? By the way, did you ever get that PM I sent you? I don’t know if it ever sent or if you saw my other post asking.

This is basically what we could expect at best from a new forum, lmao.

Missing features? Sure. Replies and stuff missing? No way. People on the sh.itjust.works instance can’t see your reply to this post at the time of making this comment. That’s just silly. Especially since people on that instance have replied and are visible on lemmy.ml. As for other instances who knows? I can’t be bothered looking.

What kills me the most is the mobile I tried, Jerboa, loads content very very slowly. Half of the time it doesn’t even load and throws an error instead.

Connect on the Play Store seems alright but I can’t make it show me only communities I’ve subscribed to so I see heaps of stupid meme posts. As it is now I just don’t bother looking if Jerboa isn’t working.

A recent thread on Reddit gives me the feeling it wont get much use apart from the people already here. If I happen to make a thread there I’ll be sure to make a copy of it here. I should probably make the sidebar a bit more useful too and not just rip off /r/tasker’s wholesale.

To be honest, if this place ever takes off I’ll be looking to hand it over or add other people to run it. I mostly made it so that Uber like app but for jobs users who sometimes post on /r/tasker looking for help didn’t make it for their service.

Also. I’ve sent you a message a while ago. Did you ever get it?

Thank you for posting the update. I’ve got it installed and seems to be working fine but can’t speak for App Factory because I don’t use it.
