No. Posts are not downloaded and Quiblr is purely a frontend (you can choose which instance you want to use). The algorithm basically crafts the relevant API calls to populate the For You feed with content that matches your usage preferences. Those preferences and metadata are all stored on your device
I see what you mean. To clarify, Quiblr as a platform is also 100% private. It doesn't even use Google Analytics. The only data that I collect is anything submitted via the Feedback form + Umami for analytics .
Never heard of Quiblr but I really like the look and feel of. Also great that you added a "For you page". Any chance you can add kbin/mbin instances? Is Quiblr like a frontend which pulls data from other instances or is it an other fediverse piece of software? And are we able to selfhost Quiblr?
Quiblr is purely a frontend. It creates a standardized experience across Instances (including the feed personalization). Im not super familiar with Kbin. If it uses the same API as Lemmy then it should work.
Long-term, I'd love to integrate more and more fediverse platforms into Quiblr
I don't understand why nobody did it in the past. It makes the experience so much better for normal users. I hope this becomes mainstream. Btw does it have any automatic analytics cache cleaning or something like that (so it doesn't grow 20 gigs of it in a year)? If so, make sure it cleans it periodically and not immediately when a piece of data becomes unneeded. On low end devices frequent write/delete cycles can be an issue
I can’t go into too much detail, I was working for a recognisable company who was dabbling in the Fediverse with a heavy lean towards empowering the users.
This was high on my list of demands.
Along with fine grain controls for what metrics you opt into and what notifications you receive.
Ehh. That's like accident billboards. I maintain that most people don't know they can block ads, and a large part of the masses who have heard of it think it's complicated or too hard for them.
With ad blocking I have a small tension that if I know a sort of thing exists, I presumably will find it when I search for it. So I don't want another vacuum ad.
If I don't know something exists then I have to stumble on it somehow.
The bigger problem would be if they didn't block their own ads. I honestly didn't even know they did ads so my blocking, of which they're a part, apparently is working.
So I opened the link and was scrolling through the front page and eventually saw a community that I'd never seen before, so I wanted to take a look. I opened it and couldn't see what instance it was hosted on. When I tried to share it to myself, it still wouldn't give me the original instance URL. I found that super frustrating.
OK, so what this purports to do is use your email server as chat platform. kinda intriguing, could have several use cases, don't know what it does with existing email or how the chat looks like in e.g. thunderbird...
unfortunately, after installing it and being unsuccessful about having it login to my IMAP account (works fine with thunderbird), I've given up.
so, the "onboarding" is less than stellar and the desktop app is electron, which I hate; haven't tried the android app.
The app was bought out 9 months ago by some mystery company, isn't actually open source, and you have not switched or made backups? I'm sorry, this is as much a user error as an issue with Raivo.
