To get to new stuff you must first understand the beginnings.

These here are beans and here are some more beans…

We have lemmybb running on retrolemmy at forum.retrolemmy.com but yeah, unfortunately that project didn’t reach the heights it could have.

I created PieBB with that idea, but I wanted it simpeler to set up, and more feature rich. The piefed topics and feeds helped for that.

If you want to see everything, world might not be the best place. If you click on blocked there, you see all the instances that are blocked by lemmy.world.

There are instances that don’t, or barely, block any instances. That’s where you are most likely to find “everything”

I’ll try and clear it up in a future update. Thanks for the feedback!

It might be cleared up with one of the other themes on the bottom of the page.

That’s pretty much what the frontend does. And the piefed topics and feeds are the forums. It works surprisingly smooth, and I’ve actually been using it on and off for a week

Edit: I now understand what you meant. Sort by new only sorts by post date. You can sort by active, but this excludes posts that have no comment. So for every “forum” (community) the software will have to do 2 api calls, and sort them accordingly. Sort new and active and combine those 2.

To prevent rate-limit I will only do the double api calls for the first page. Anything after will be sorted by new, to make sure the topics without comments still get potential views.

Thanks! Fixed.

I’m running both Retrolemmy and Retrofed because I like doing it. I made the community I would like to see. We are niche and small, but like our little place. I don’t know how it would be to host a big instance, but I like what we have here. I pay it out of pocket, and am happy to do so.

If you want, most instances accept donations of some kind. This can help for some Admins.

I’m not sure if that movie needs another layer of weird.
