For me, it’s because I’m a web developer and most people use chrome. I have to run my code on a browser that is close to what people will really use. I have noticed a blind spot recently where I assumed another project I’m working on is similar, but that one I think has more Firefox users. Likely I’ll have to change my preference by project.

Also, hot take, Chromium is actually a very good browser aside from all google’s nonsense. I’ve had to turn to list virtualization to handle large lists of elements, but I noticed Chromium was much more forgiving of these lists compared to safari. Admittedly I need to do more Firefox testing.

I think people get too caught up on which browser is the best. Probably a good thing we have both brave and Firefox as options. I know brave has done its own share of nonsense, but it’s still miles better than chrome.

This just reminds me of the good old days of Netflix. Now they’re shit, but this reminds me of a time that they weren’t

The old ban the word and you don’t have to worry about the thing that the word describes

I won't be able to get this into the App Store for a couple days, but if you want to join TestFlight, it should already be fixed.

Join TestFlight

Edit: apple might take an hour or so to approve the build. Look for version 1.9.3

Got it, thanks! I think I know what to do. This might take me a bit of time, but I’ll find a fix

Yeah. I need to add better support for system accessibility features. Would you be happy if the default text size stays the same but I respect the system wide larger text setting? The reason I ask is I think the system setting would affect all your apps, not just Blorp.

What I’m trying to get at is Blorp text two small compared to other apps, or are you a person that prefers bigger text across all apps?

Damn I should get into film. I occasionally shoot on my Fuji XS10. Even digital is enough friction that I’m lazy and I don’t take it out as often as I like. But film is beautiful and I would love to learn the art form.

I’ve been shooting on a manual focus lens, which I got to save money. I could probably justify the upgrade but now I’m thinking if I upgrade I lose all my manual focus skill.

This is kinda just me rambling, but my friend is working on a website that maps out all the places you can develop film. https://fsd-en9.pages.dev/

I tried my best to match other similar apps. Any specific elements too small, or is it all too small across the board? Did you increase the text size on iOS or is it set to the default?

It’s cloud services, not things being web based. It’s capitalism hijacking technology and preventing you from owning anything. Figma runs in the browser and it’s a fantastic piece of software. But it’s also a cloud service that can be taken away from you at any point. But if you subtract the business model, the fact that you can run something like that in the browser is incredible. Web makes it so incredibly easy to distribute cross platform software. FOSS should embrace it and use it to build actually good software not all this SASS garbage.

I don’t want to point fingers at anything without looking into it, but I suspect PieFed isn’t as optimized as Lemmy yet. That’s mostly from my own testing, and it would make sense since PieFed is so new. But my testing hasn’t been that scientific, so take that with a grain of salt.

  1. NSFW is a big issue, and I’m really sorry to everyone that I missed that. I’m going to try and get a fix up for that tonight, but it could take a day or two to roll out
  2. I actually cache pretty aggressively, but what you’re describing is likely when I chose to load the next page. For example, it might say, “when you’re 50% through the currently feed of posts, fetch the next 50”. This could probably be tuned a little better.

For the second issue, could you compare the loading time against Lemmy.world in Blorp? It’s probably the way I’m paginating, but that will rule out 100% that it’s an issue with Blorp and not a slow response from PieFed.

Thanks! A couple changes may need to be made, so you can configure it how you like. Feel free to open an issue if you notice anything missing. Check the .env.example to see the existing options
