Features

  • Linked to a user using Lemmy’s API, no authentication

  • Category filters: Set one or more community as the categories
  • Easy to adapt to your profile
  • One page constraint
  • Anchor navigation and permalinks

  • No backend: serving a single lightweight page that can be hosted anywhere, including GitHub
  • HTML, CSS and ES6 JavaScript. That’s it.

TODO

  • Possible compatibility issues with older iOS devices. Let me know if you encounter an issue! I’ll be cleaning up the code in the meantime.
  • The only class not written by me is the markdown-html translation layer for which I’m using snarkdown. It does so using regex queries. As to not completely re-invent the wheel I’ve forked it for this purpose, but I’d like to write one myself.

    That requires the running and maintenance of a federated instance, which is not easy or cheap. Doing it like this allows anyone to make a BlogOnLemmy by serving but a single webpage, no extra server cost at all.

      So, schlepping it off on other instance owners, so they host it, which as you say is not easy or cheap.

        The open web and API’s are designed for this purpose, and don’t think any instance would ever follow reddit and close up theirs.

        I’m all for donating to your instance owner, altough I’d be surprised if any would mind their API being used this way. Giving credit where credit is due.
