Could you imagine… if someone spent a year on the JWST… then returned to earth…

how mellow that person would be.

Yeah, I understand what you mean (after a year of exploring the Web Socket).

That lemmy auth value is pulled from a JWT cookie in the browser - which you can access in JS by document.cookie. It allows user-specific API calls (retrieving saved posts, subscribed communities, etc).

Yes exactly - living on the edge!

One way to learn the new API is - explore the code of (similar) extensions and browser scripts, to see how they build and send their calls.

Is there a specific API call you'd like to make?

Maybe someone can reveal that method and endpoint.

If you're open to running User Scripts, this one called Fediverse Redirector redirects all Community, Post, and User links to your home instance. It works well.

  • Just click install on that page - it will be added to TamperMonkey (or similar).

  • Then click settings (under the script) and enter your home lemmy instance.

And to directly answer your question: the raw code is visible in that repo, so you could explore how the post redirect query was constructed.

Yes, this issue has been fixed and merged into 18.1 (the next lemmy version).

And as a temporary fix (until 18.1 releases) - if you click the “create post” button, then click the "back" button, the subscribe button should magically appear.

That’s true - Lemmy displays new comments above “top” comments, allowing them to be seen by everyone.

  1. To find new communities - go to https://lemmyverse.net/communities, click the top right "Home" icon and input your home instance (ex: lemmy.world)... now you can open/subscribe to every community you like.

  2. Get a good mobile app - they are listed here (with a ton of other great new-user tips): https://lemmy.ml/post/1470777

  3. Change your default "Sort Type" to "Subscribed + New" (in settings) - now you have a fresh feed of your exact interests, every time you open Lemmy.

  4. Communicate in a genuine, open-minded way - to me, Lemmy is a good place to really connect with people, and have honest discussions (versus the often more 'performative' tone of greeddit).

Yeah Open Source is the foundation, and the future!

Yeah - the name was changed from Limbo to Liftoff, but they kept the same invite code.

It is the correct link though - that URL is identical to the invite URL in the newest Liftoff welcome post.

  1. Go to the app store, and install the app called Test Flight.

  2. Then click this invite link (on your phone)

  3. Click 'Start Testing'

Yes, I see the same glitch - in both local and remote unsubscribed communities:

Both "Subscribe" and "Block Community" are showing as plain text, yet they are probably meant to be a tags, like the "Create a Post" button:

  • <a class="btn btn-secondary d-block mb-2 w-100 " href="/create_post?communityId=92531">Create a post</a>

Good catch - you could create an issue on the lemmy-UI issues
