Hey all!
Saw some chatter across the community and just wanted to give an update of where things are.
It’s been a busy summer with vacations, work and the craziness that comes along with it. I personally had 2 new additions to my family (twins!) and was on parental leave for a bit then figuring out the new work routine with the additional kiddos!
All that being said things are starting to stabilize for me and I’m getting back into the swing of Liftoff development. I have a laundry list of items I plan to tackle during the long weekend in the US:
- Move through the backlog of open PRs and get those merged
- Look into the unwarranted post view refresh that I’ve seen reported
- Triage the GitHub issues list
- Sluggish FPS
Additionally we’re actively discussing larger user experiences that we’re thinking about changing, specifically multi instance and cross instance account handling. You can track that discussion and please contribute your thoughts here:

Thanks for using the app, and thanks for being an active community. Excited for what’s to come!
As always please join us on matrix!
Congrats on the twins and thanks for LiftOff!

Hey @zachatrocity@lemmy.world hope you’re settling into family life?
Is there any Liftoff! news?
I guess that’s a no then 🙁
Welcome back and congratulations
Great to have you back. This is the only Lemmy app that handles multiple instances in a way I like, and I was getting concerned it would be abandoned.
Regarding the multi-instance stuff, is it possible to add a way to view the logged-in version of the local feed and/or the community list for an instance you don’t have an account on, provided you do have an account on another federated instance?
That’s a mouthful, so let me explain: I have a account on instance A which is federated with instance B. Instance B has community X which is public and community Y which is only visible to logged in users. Provided someone from my instance has interacted with them, both X and Y are searchable from A and appear in all. Now the “issue”: if I go to B’s local, I will only see posts from X since I’m not logged in to B despite Y being visible from A’s all. Likewise, if I view B’s community list I will only see X. Since I have access to Y via A, and can interact freely with it, I should be able to see it when browsing B.
This doesn’t seem to be possible from the web app ether so it might be a Lemmy limitation.
@mykl@lemmy.world
Is there any news on Liftoff! I can see the other mods haven’t posted in at least five months.
Damn, I really like liftoff and it is still working well without anyone maintaining it for the last 6+ months but it seems dead. I guess it’s time to find a new app.
Congratulations on the twins.
Liftoff has been great. No complaints from me.
You’re gonna need quite a bit of time off with those twins…
You guys rock. Good luck with your little ones.
