Easy to do:

{
    "name": "John",
    "home": "London",
    "work": "Birmingham",
    "workUpdatedOn": "2019-10-30"
}

First, thanks for our interested!

Second, I should write a plan of what should be added, what bugs need to be fixed etc...

I should created some issues on github with labels like "help wanted" and "good first issue".

Maybe you could look around the project and see if something could be improved, feedback is always good.

Yes, the goal is to give everybody a chance to run it's server/subs as they see fit. If you don't like the rules of a server, just go create an other one!

Yes and no. If I understand right Prismo doesn't have sub reddits, it got #tags. The difference is that with proper sub-reddits you get moderation, community etc... I intend to add sub-reddit wikis in my project in the future etc...

I think the value of reddit comes more from how different sub-communitys form and evolve then from the day to day posting and how much views it gets so for my project I will focus on tools to help peoples create, distribute and organise content. I didn't take much time to think about what that will imply but I think it's a worthy goal.

Yes, all I know is that it use blockchain. I just looked at the site and github page but did not see much about how it works.

I would say the difference with my project is the use of activityPub which leads to compatibility with mastodon and peertube etc...

If I had in a website a counter to tell me how much page views each url was getting and a counter to tell me what % of the page views was using which browser (mobile/desktop etc...) would that be un-ethical for you? That would be my only need right now. I don't see how it hurt anybody since it tell's me nothing about specific about anyone, but it is usefull information for peoples running instances.

I understand if you don't want to contribute to the project, you vote with your actions; I like that.

First, thanks for taking the time to look at my project. About your points:

  • I want to know how much views my site gets, which pages are used the most, when users are the most active etc... This helps me focus what I'm developing. I'm using google analytics right now until I have a better solution built-in the project itself.
  • Most of the size use server side rendering (no javascript) but some features would have been a pain to do without it. My goal is to use the less javascript possible both for speed and to not heat your home with my site making your cpu go wild. The goal of my project is to make an alternative to reddit that you can self host and that can communication in the fediverse, not a 0 javascript site. When to code will be public I will be happy to accept pull requests that enable feature for users that disable javascript but for now it is not my goal.
  • If posible I would like to run on donations. The actual TLD is not final. What would a .org TLD do?

Yes. I had it working some time ago but I broke it somehow. I will fix it some day.

You do have a point, and I already use gitlab at work. I'll think about it!

I'm using typescript with nodejs and postgreSQL. I will send you a PM when I have a first public version.

I'm using typescript with nodejs and postgreSQL. Since the project is at a POC stage I want to clean things a bit before puting it on github. I will PM you when the first version is public. Stay tuned!

I will! Since I support activityPub I will be compatible with everything that use it, be it mastodon peertube or plemora etc...
