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.
One of the most inportant features that lemmy lacks is the embedding of peertube/invidious/youtube videos . If you manage to incorporate this then what you’d have would be basically a huge improvement for the Fediverse. Imagine someone sharing a song/video he found on YouTube and instead of dealing with redirect and opening an entire other app you just click play. Heck, the user could add an “audio only” tag to their post to just show a music player widget.
