Using the network devtools, you can see that logging in sends the request directly to the instance, and does not send it through the server. The only proxying done is to upload images due to a CORS issue with Lemmy.

The client is open source, you can check it here: https://github.com/Xyphyn/photon

it looks like someone with UX experience was at least in proximity to this at the time it was designed?

ouch. that hurt.

Change the "instance URL" to the instance you use. In your case, you would input showeq.com.

I'll soon make it so that you can change guest instance without logging in.

FYI most of those have official urls.

Photon: https://phtn.app

Good to know that I broke image caching.

(this is serious)

I couldn't figure out how to disable it and the cache sizes kept going into the gigabytes, but I somehow broke it recently and caches are sane now.

I see why this is happening, will fix in a sec

Hot is basically just "active" but based on upvotes, and the people in c/memes think that giving upvotes completely randomly is good for lemmy

How much experience did you have with Rust when you started making Lemmy? What programming languages did you use before?

Holy crap, two people with different opinions having a civilized discussion?!?!?!!

it's nice to see more of these on Lemmy.

Proton is so great that I buy a few games, play them for hours, just to realize there wasn't a native Linux version. I don't even notice.
