We are thrilled to announce the upcoming release of Sublinks, a groundbreaking Link Aggregation Social Network, joining the Fediverse. This innovative platform is designed to revolutionize how we share and discover online. Our dedicated team of volunteer contributors has worked tirelessly, utilizing technologies like Java, Go, TypeScript, and HTML to bring this vision to life. Sublinks promises a user-friendly interface and robust features that cater to diverse online communities. Stay tuned for our launch date, and get ready to experience a new era of social link sharing!

Sublinks will have a fully compatible API with Lemmy so all current Lemmy apps will also work with Sublinks. In fact, discuss.online will switch to Sublinks to fully replace Lemmy once we reach our Parity Milestone.

For more information, visit GitHub - Sublinks and sublinks.org.

Stay tuned for more regular updates as we progress.

It's basically a fork of Lemmy. But rather than forking, we're rewriting the entire tech stack to something easier to support and enhance. You can see the full roadmap here: https://github.com/orgs/sublinks/projects/1

That’d be great to add to the about. As it is right now it’s just fluff. Had no idea what this project is because the demo is just a lemmy instance. How would a user know anything is different?

I'll get it on there on the sidebar. Thanks a lot for the feedback. The demo site has been up for so long that I didn't think of it when I announced it.

Honestly this doesn't really seem like a project targeting users (at least not at this stage). This seems like something an admin would be more interested in
