I’m looking for an interface like libreedit, but for lemmy. So that I can follow specific communities from lemmy.ml, or some other instances, but without having to login to them, and locally through cookies or something like that…
I just skimmed thorugh the libreddit readme so maybe I’m missing something but would self hosting your own lemmy instance not accomplish everything you are looking for?
It might achieve it, but I’m not looking into having a lemmy instance, but rather being able to sort of browse and keep up to date with some communities, just as it was possible to do with reddit (no need to host anything)…
You could use a rss reader and import communities with URLs like this: https://lemmy.ml/feeds/c/asklemmy.xml?sort=Active
Ohh, I didn’t know lemmy already offered such thing. So it would be like
https://_instance_/feeds/c/_community_.xml?sort=Activethen?
There is a browser extension for desktop Firefox called Mullem which allows for following Lemmy communities, and combining them into feeds called “mullems”, similar to multireddits, entirely using local storage. I couldn’t get this extension to work, though – whenever I’d attempt to view a community through Mullem, it just tells me “File not found - Firefox can’t find the file at moz-extension://[bla bla bla bla]/sidebar/[community URL]”.
If that doesn’t happen to you, or you can figure out what causes this bug, then that might be your answer.
Pretty interesting. I was not counting on a rss sort of reader extension, but it might work… I’ll explore it, though if lemmy already support rss seeds, perhaps I can get a more generic rss reader doing it… Thanks !
Bookmarks. Bookmarks the community, or the instance’s homepage after configuring it. Opera allows these as “speed dial” and it makes flitting between groups easy.
