Awesome, thanks for doing this!

Also !lemmy_dev@programming.dev ! Not quite as active though

Earlier today, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reported that Apple is in discussions with Google to license Google’s Gemini generative large-language models to power new features coming to the iPhone as part of iOS 18.

Trinity stood out the most to me, it seems to have less unnecessary fluff

Ok I tried it out and as of now Jan has a better UI/UX imo (easier to install and use), but Open WebUI seems to have more features like document/image processing.

Thanks for pointing that out—looks like they’re working on a Server Suite. I’d guess that they try to monetize that but leave the personal desktop version free

Does this differ from Ollama + Open WebUI in any way?

Welcome! 🎉

EasyPanel is a hidden gem. Caprover feels very robust and the main dev is really friendly. Coolify is still under development but looks very promising.

I use Caprover mostly since it supports managing multiple servers through Docker Swarm, otherwise I’d probably be using EasyPanel.

What doesn’t line up is that most other operating systems including macOS support PWAs with different browser engines. That along with the fact that Apple announced this at the bottom of an article hidden under a collapsed menu, it really makes it seem like they’re trying to find an excuse to get rid of them without damaging their brand reputation. It’s no secret how profitable the App Store ecosystem is, and this is one more way they can pressure developers into it while shifting the blame to the EU

I know this community is for programming, but you could use a tool like n8n as a shortcut to connect services. It’s more of a drag-and-drop node grid similar to Zapier, but it’s open-source and self-hostable. You can schedule tasks to run at a certain time, code your own integrations, or install plugins that other people have made

From what I’ve seen It’s mostly been:

• New Lemmy users trying to find an app
• People looking for an app with specific features
• New app announcements
• Bigger releases and changes to existing apps

I think that content all depends on how many users and apps there are—not much you can do about that.

Maybe we could have a monthly post asking people what they want in Lemmy apps (features, ideas, likes and dislikes)? That might be a good way to bring all devs and users together to think of ways to make the ecosystem better

That’s a really important distinction, thanks for clarifying

You can always block those instances for yourself in your settings

Edit: Sorry, sounds like your instance doesn’t have that yet but is getting an upgrade soon that will enable that feature

All fixed now, and login should be a bit faster too. Thanks for bringing it to my attention

Yes definitely, just tested it though and looks like Lemmynade is marking some instances as unsafe when you try to log in. lemm.ee is a trusted instance so it shouldn’t be marking it that way. I’m on it and I’ll let you know when that’s fixed

Of course! Yeah, this post was intended to be less of a proposal and more of a brainstorm session. Maybe licenses aren’t the way to go about this, or we create our own licenses to be compatible with ActivityPub and match Lemmy’s values? Maybe it doesn’t matter how our content is used, or there’s nothing we can do?

You might be right, I definitely see your point. ActivityPub adds a whole new layer to this too. In the end though, isn’t the content we post no different than anything else published on the Internet? I guess it’s important to note that technically nothing public can be 100% prevented from being used in unwanted ways. However, there might be other ways (legally, socially, etc.) we could discourage it.

Regardless, I’d love to get a better sense of how much this matters to us here on Lemmy—or if it should even matter in the first place

Yep you’re right, everyone is automatically updated to the newest version. If a new update arrives while you’re using it, Lemmynade waits for a good time and automatically updates you. To see the current version anyway, tap and hold the Account tab to open the Account switcher, then tap Manage Accounts. It’ll show the version there towards the top :)

Thanks for hearing us and continuing to allow all types of apps here. FOSS is an amazing model for some projects, but some of us simply want to protect the rights of what we create or we’re looking at other models to help Lemmy become more sustainable
