Are the rules around who can donate or around how much they can donate? My understanding is that in the US, most people can donate directly to a candidate (within a limit) but you can donate unlimited amounts “indirectly” to the candidate

Are there other western countries that have a similar rule regarding money in politics? I’m not familiar with rules regarding political donations in other countries

All the manufacturers of mechanical keyboards just cried 🥺

I’ll definitely let you know. Thank you!

I appreciate the offer! I have localization features in my pipeline. I’ll let you know

Ideally! I’m working to make it scalable to integrate as many fediverse platforms as I can. I’d love to include Piefed

Hi, sorry for late follow up on this. I did a write up on the Quiblr “For You” feed here

That is the long term vision. This has been just a passion project that I work on the side. But keeping it all react native has made it easier for me to manage 1 app for web, iOS, and Android.

I didn’t want to rush out a native version though. I want it to really utilize native functionality

Recommendations are entirely, 100% on your device. There is no association between your account and the recs. So there is no transfer of data to or from your account. You can log in with your current Lemmy profile and the recs will work all the same!

The benefit of logging in is that you have more ways to interact on lemmy (so your recommendations will be more tailored)

I appreciate all the kind words! You are correct that it is a frontend with recommendation engine built in. And the speed likely comes from being a progressive web app.

There are tradeoffs, but it definitely makes thinks “snappier” :)

I pushed an update to Quiblr. I added the instance detail to the Communities page. Additionally, the vertical 3 dot ellipses on each post has an option called Post Detail >> I added the original post url here

Let me know if you have any additional feedback!

That is an effect of the dynamic sizing (adjusting the style for different screen dimensions) + it may be because the items are in a flatlist. I will add a dynamic image size setting option tonight to allow users to show the full image ratio rather than a standardized image size.

Edit: dynamic image size setting is now live

I use Kofi for donations (button in the top bar). I build and pay for everything myself so support is appreciated!

Let me know if you have any feedback!

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 .

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 appreciate the kind words. And yes, I included a mechanism to constantly refresh and clean up recommendations so that it doesn’t use too much memory

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

Gotcha. That should be an easy addition. I’ll see if I can push an update tonight!

Edit: I noted this in a separate comment, but I added the instance info to the communities page + the original post url to the Post Details page (via the 3 dot ellipses)

Yup, 100% completely local to your device alone
