Harry is bland because he’s the reader stand-in in the wonderful world of magic.

Are there any tools you wish you had to make parts of this easier?

Thanks for bringing the instance back up, gabe. It is risky and a huge responsibility to host an instance for so many people. I really appreciate you doing it. Things happen.

Rust isn’t the easiest language but starting with it might not be the worst option. Rust is weird enough that if you start with some other language you’ll spend a lot of time unlearning that when you eventually try Rust.

Also I’ve found that the rust compiler gives the most helpful suggestions. It’ll tell you exactly what is wrong and where. I’ve worked in at least half a dozen languages and the tooling for Rust has been the best.

Memmy has it.

Start with the top-left and end with the bottom right. You can read the others in any order and the meme still makes sense. It’s a whole new lifestyle.

There unfortunately isn’t a way to force the UI to be one of those ones by default for literature.cafe […] Doing so would break federation.

Isn’t the UI separate from the backend and run as a separate process? I haven’t done this nor seen anyone else do this yet so this is just an educated guess, but I believe this means that anything the standard lemmy-ui can do can be done by calling the APIs directly, ergo you can host a custom frontend on https://literature.cafe without breaking federation. But I guess that doing that would need extra work for you every time you want to upgrade because now you can’t use the standard docker image?

I mostly use mobile apps so the web frontend does not make a difference to me. I actually like the default one for my desktop. 🙂
