- Comment on Do we need a crawler to load content from other lemmy instances? How are we supposed to federate without one? 5 days ago:
Piefed has a couple of different ways to populate a new server. Pulling lemmyverse data and subscribing to comms that way, or scanning a remote Lemmy/mbin/pieces server for comms. You can look at that code if you want inspiration.
- Comment on Why do some instances not load communities properly? 1 week ago:
Usually Lemmy/piefed does a pull of the most recent 50 posts when the follow first happens. Then new posts come in over time via federation.
If you're not getting /any/ new posts it may be that the federation is not working. If some communities gets posts more than others then it's probably a difference in activity levels in the communities.
- Comment on PieFed, a FOSS Feed Aggregator alternative to Lemmy, but faster 8 months ago:
This code: https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/src/branch/main/app/api/alpha
Its mostly freamon and rimu working on that part. Iirc its meant to be lemmy api compatible, but i think there are some adaptations needed to accomadate the piefed way differences.
Freamon got a fork of a lemmy app to sort-of work back in september (https://matrix.to/#/!NVUzKiFppMtECaxHQm:matrix.org/$KJqJfus8DVy-B64AC8uWEQ9oiGsRA04AReRF-05nQYA?via=matrix.org&via=tchncs.de&via=jeena.net) so the alpha api stuff has been coming in since then.

no apps yet. work on an alpha API is in progress though, so soon(tm) hehe

not a fork, its its own code base built from scratch.

Yes. I added that myself a couple months ago 😎
