We are thrilled to announce the upcoming release of Sublinks, a groundbreaking Link Aggregation Social Network, joining the Fediverse. This innovative platform is designed to revolutionize how we share and discover online. Our dedicated team of volunteer contributors has worked tirelessly, utilizing technologies like Java, Go, TypeScript, and HTML to bring this vision to life. Sublinks promises a user-friendly interface and robust features that cater to diverse online communities. Stay tuned for our launch date, and get ready to experience a new era of social link sharing!
Sublinks will have a fully compatible API with Lemmy so all current Lemmy apps will also work with Sublinks. In fact, discuss.online will switch to Sublinks to fully replace Lemmy once we reach our Parity Milestone.
For more information, visit GitHub - Sublinks and sublinks.org.
Stay tuned for more regular updates as we progress.
It’s not a code fork it’s a completely new codebase in a different language.
It’s not just about implementing “pet features”. I’ve worked closely with admins of all major Lemmy instances to build the feature set for this and the roadmap plan.
Will it compete with https://join.piefed.social/ ? Or does it have some stand out features ?
You can see the full feature roadmap here: https://github.com/orgs/sublinks/projects/1/views/6
Thank you, to a non-developer eye that doesn’t look any different to Lemmy.
Please are you able to explain why sublinks is better and what the extra features are?
