Same I've always heard it called tubing, or simply "going out on the river" when I know they don't have a boat
This I would really like to see, and be able to group my subscriptions into feeds however I want instead of just the default subscribed feed. And it seems like it would be relatively simple to implement.
Which I don't really think we want because it's all about context based on the instance. Technology@slrpnk.net would be all about solar tech whereas technology@beehaw.org would be more science and consumer electronics.
Hey well it takes a special kind of grocery store to still carry Old El Paso when you could just pick up the Pace!
Ope gotta get by ya to get the Old El Paso
Kind of disappointing that site actually has some cool communities but it's basically an island because everybody blocks their instance
I think the key is you don't actually mirror every single post, just posts that meet specific guidelines like so many upvoted and no self posts or reddit images
Just don't index the reddit self posts or images hosted on reddit. They can't tell us not to index links to other people's websites.
Even if it was just the top upvoted link post per sub each day, that would give a lot of content here to get started and make communities (or magazines kbin parlance) look alive. Once people start posting on their own it won't be needed anymore.
I put jerboa in the place where I used to have the Sync Pro app mostly just to start coming here out of habit. But a lot of times I end up browsing through chrome because I get a lot of random JSON parse errors in Jerboa. There's a paid app called Fedilab I'm curious about but it doesn't seem to work with Lemmy instances yet, I think it's mostly for Mastodon.
To bad there's no decentralized content aggregation platform where people can subscribe and comment between different sites...oh wait
Thank you just did this with Chrome on Android! Easier than having to open a new chrome tab every time for sure
