Thank you for creating it and maintaining it!

I've been trying it out and it's nice :)

Thank you for your work! I didn't know about Blorp until this post, it looks amazing.

Edit: one thing I just noticed is when I log in, it gave me an error message saying I had an incorrect login but then refreshed to a logged in state with my account. (in other words it worked fine to log in, it just flashed me that message anyway.) I'm in win10 with Firefox 144 (64bit) if that's important.

Edit 2: Just tried again, worked fine and no message now.

hi. thanks for this. it’s pretty rad.

edit: sorry, “this” being blorp where i am typing this. i was on voyager for a bit but i like blorp better.

One thing that bugs me when using Blorp on my desktop is that I can't right-click on an image to copy it to the clipboard, can we improve on that?

Thanks :)

It's very similar to Lemmy, and probably the closest to Lemmy out of the other platforms that follow this format.

We tried to describe the differences here

https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/fedecan/our-platforms#forum-style

These platforms follow a forum format, similar to platforms like Reddit or Hacker News. You can share and discuss links, text, and images, and upvote/downvote content to decide on what content rises to the top.

These platforms use one of two projects under the hood:

• Lemmy - Lemmy is an established and stable project. It was designed to be very fast and reliable, and it makes up a large part of the forum side of the Fediverse
• Piefed - Piefed is a relatively new project that is growing in popularity. It offers new ways to organize content, such as topic lists, feeds, flairs, and additional moderation tools.

As they're both federated, you can use any of them to connect to the wider Fediverse!

It's part of the fediverse, and it's very similar to Lemmy--you can interact with it pretty transparently. You almost certainly have interacted with Piefed communities, posts, and users.
