Thank you for giving back to the community! 🎉

Ofc! Thanks for your support 💪

Theres a big empty space on the top of the screen when using it on ios as a PWA

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

Comments from other communities

Thanks for your massive contribution to this growing community!

I can see that you've taken on a lot of the feedback from previous comments threads. This is great! Thank you.

And thank you for open sourcing it.

Question: I was using Quiblr before without logging in. If I sign up an account now and log in, will it transfer my locally stored data into the account to keep the recommendation (see more/see less) settings?

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)

Looking good! Are you planning to publish as apk as well ( since it's react native) ?

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

Thank you very much for your work!

awesome! Do you need someone to translate it to french?

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

Thanks for this awesome project!

Like the above user, I'd be very interested in translating this to German and Portuguese :)

Please let me know if you need any help

I'll definitely let you know. Thank you!

This is great! Excited about the mastodon integration and really glad its open source now! Will it support Piefed?

Ideally! I'm working to make it scalable to integrate as many fediverse platforms as I can. I'd love to include Piefed

No API exists yet for PieFed, unfortunately (it'll need to have one at some point, though)

Good work man. This is a cool app. Slick ui. Very clean

Hi I'm very interested in using the app because of the recommmendation feature, but the compact view (the only view I use) isn't compact enough. Let me show you:

What client you using in Bottom Image?

Sync for Lemmy, I edited the OP to show this now.

Thanks! Can it work with Mbin as well?

Thought it was a conspiracy rag in Harry Potter.

It looks really nice. I like and have paid for Boost, but I would absolutely use something like this if I needed a web client.

Interesting to see a client with an non hostile algorithm. It would be cool if algorithms where separate the clients and you could choose to use Quiblrs sorting method on another app.

Currently it's just a Lemmy client. It'll be cool to watch the development, but at present I don't see how it's any better than voyager. At least on mobile the interface has a lot more dead space than voyager.

It looks very nice too.

Appreciate open source projects, but…

The descriptions on its Github page looks heavily AI generated. It uses a whole lot of words to say very few things.

Would benefit from having a few screenshots instead of walls of text.

Also, it is just a Lemmy client for now, so just call it one instead of “connect to the fediverse”.
