@ShadowRam, you’re not the only one having that problem on kbin.social. It’s also been happening for me (and probably everyone else). I’m sure ernest will fix it soon; it’s probably been delayed because of the holidays. There’s more info about the issue in this thread.

I just made this GitHub issue detailing a list of some of the things that need to happen; if you’re interested in anything, feel free to let me know (so I can avoid it) and have at it. Also, if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask.

I might put it on there too, we’ll have to see.

That would be amazing! Right now, the code is very unorganized, and the general workflow is unstructured, just so you know what to expect :) since it’s only really two weeks old. Feel free to make pull requests for bug fixes, feature implementations, code organization improvements, etc. (later, I might have a more concrete list of what I’m trying to do). Also, considering this is only my first real Flutter app, it would be great to have suggestions for the overall code structure (right now it’s a mess). If you want, you can join the matrix room as well, that’ll make discussion easier.

Yes, it is already compatible. The UI won’t look iOSy yet until I adjust it, but at least you’ll get the geist. I’ll see what I can do about the IPA.

So if my kbin account is in kbin.social, I am not able to login in the app at all?

That’s correct, for now at least. It’s not a limitation of the app, but that the API has not been enabled (by the kbin.social admin) on this server yet. At the moment, kbin.earth might be the only server that has working login functionality, but you could try some of the other API enabled kbin servers, it’ll pop up an error if they don’t work. See my related comment here.

Honestly, that’s pretty much what this post and the previous post were for. I’ll probably make future posts for other major milestones here as well, and smaller milestone posts are on the Interstellar magazine.

Are you planning on throwing a copy of your app in Google Play?

Yes, probably once it’s more mature. I looked into the process already but was thrown off by the fact that Google wants my government ID (I’m a privacy advocate), but I’ll probably end up doing it eventually. Also, if the project gets enough financing, I might put it on the Apple store as well.

Hopefully I won’t abandon it, but if I did, it is open source, so at least someone else could pick it up (at some point, I’d like to get more maintainers, so I’m not the only one). Here you go for a chat room: kbin-interstellar:matrix.org, I did matrix to keep it close to the other kbin rooms.

I already found a bug where voting/boosting the main thread on a details/comments page doesn’t update the status. So if you try to vote, it most likely has worked; it just didn’t update the screen.

Unfortunately, not yet. Only once the api is enabled for kbin.social (you can check by seeing if the API docs page loads) will it work. At the moment, the only api enabled instances I know of include karab.in, kbin.run, kbin.melroy.org, and kbin.earth. While working on the app, I found a kbin bug that causes logins to fail, so unless they’ve updated already, it’s possible kbin.earth is the only instance you can actually log in on.

I agree with @Drewski, defederation should be the last choice. Kbin does have an option where you can block whole domains, so if you’d prefer that, go here and click the block button: kbin.social/d/fanaticus.social

Thanks, that’s helpful.

I was using the flutter_markdown package to render markdown. Fortunately, the text style can be changed, so once I get around to it, I’ll fix the color issue.

Yes, I noticed that. I think those are from citations (with >).

Both kbin.run and kbin.melroy.org support the api and are english if you want to try those.

The individual magazine’s page has not been implemented yet; I might try to work on that tomorrow. Unfortunately, kbin.social does not support the API yet (that’s why karab.in was the default).

Right now, I’m planning on Android. I’d put it on iOS if I didn’t have to pay $100 a year for the Apple Developer Program.

@Damaskox I don’t think that’s possible, especially considering users can hide their subscriptions in their profile.

Yeah, it is pretty crazy. I’ve actually been playing Skyrim on my SD too. I had it on my switch, but have since started a new run on the SD.
