I’d love to try wefwef but it seems to only support 3 different Lemmy instances. I’d like to use it with my own instance.
EDIT: thanks for pointing out that it’s indeed possible to use wefwef with any instance. What an amazing PWA!
You can use it with your own instance. There’s an “other” option in the latest release that lets you plug in the URL.
Indeed, thanks a lot! It worked. Writing this using wefwef 😊
I’m pretty sure there always has been
That would make sense. I’ve only just started using it, so I figured I’d qualify that if they had tried it before and not seen it.
You can, just hit the profile button at the bottom, hit “login” in the top right, then select “other”
Yes, awesome, thank you! Writing this using wefwef 😃
A quick call out since it sounds like you’re hosting your own instance - you can also choose to host a private version of Wefwef for yourself. Their GitHub has instructions around that, and it may improve performance for you as well.
What an intriguing idea! I’ll definitely look into this, thanks for pointing this out!
