ah bummer. i'm not on raddle at all so this is the first i've heard of this. emma was totally chill and awesome and really helpful when i was trying to file a pull request. i hope things improve for them.
i am also not really a PHP programmer but i know a little from doing some work with drupal like 8 years ago and i'm willing to help continue this fork of postmill as needs arise. i love this website a lot and i wanna help out if i can.

yeah same, though I do wonder if we should have a place for code. Like Gitlab, but in our control.

It also seems like the PostMill code base is like a million times more tractable than what Reddit had. Like there were a few small fixes I had in my mind to open as issues on Gitlab which are still perfectly feasible to implement. And if I bothered to learn PHP I could apply my own elbow grease in the spirit of oakreef too.

Aw that's too bad. Wish them the best, thanks for making this software, it was a godsend for us.

if we used the same version of the reddit software for like four years or whatever we can do it again

I don't know PHP but if you want a fresh pair of eyes on any fixes or upgrades you happen to be doing on your branch I'll be happy to lend a hand, meme queen supreme.

To be more clear about what's going on, due to issues on raddle, the site this software was developed for, the essentially sole developer of the software we're using has decided to stop development. We're gonna take a sec to understand what this means for us, but it probably isn't much. Let me know if you have any questions!

Oh dear, something happen on the other postmill site?
Moonside wrote (edited )
To add to what the admin said, the software this site runs on, PostMill, will on some future date probably have more options for adding images to themes and shit.
EDIT: ok the author stopped development of PostMill so that's not going to happen.

I'm coming out of a very draining career crisis for lack of a better word and thumbnails are one of my goals to get done while I'm taking my break. That being said this involves doing an integration with a service like s3 so if I can't figure it out either someone else will have to do it or it'll just be a longer term project.

We had to disable them because they kept disappearing on us. We don't have a schedule or anything but we would like to bring them back someday.
