Will someone please fork @pixelfed so I can upstream new features 😅

Jokes aside, it's a good feeling that our project doesn't have any forks, I guess I'm doing something right?

@dansup @pixelfed I've looked at the source code once and it's PHP, so i just ran the other way :)

But, last time i've used PHP was 10+ years ago, and it was awful. If you managed to get such good project with it, means PHP improved a lot while i was looking at python :)

@partizan @pixelfed Modern php is amazing, and performance wise is pretty impressive!

@dansup @pixelfed Careful! Better don't ask for it 😄

@dansup @pixelfed on the other hand, there aren't any other contributors, which i guess means there's something wrong

@trwnh @pixelfed does it though?

I know it's uncommon for a single developer to develop both front end and back end, but I'm also working on mobile apps too.

Maybe it's not so much that we need contributors, but that there is really few things to accomplish at this stage?

I could be wrong

@dansup @pixelfed there's still a lot to do imo, and you've definitely got too much on your plate rn. but the main point is that there should ideally be a bigger community than just one person who, if they leave or quit or something happens to them, the project grinds to a halt or dies out completely

@trwnh @pixelfed I get that, I'm doing the best I can!

Between the matrix and discords, I try to be as active as possible and have no problem onboarding new developers, explaining how it works, etc.

I think once the apps are released, we will see more contributors, and if not, thats okay too.

@dansup @pixelfed we should probably do more stuff like cleaning up code, figuring out better release planning, and make sure all the planned features end up getting released 😅

@dansup yes, you’re doing something right. Thanks for your hard work.
