Hi, sorry for late follow up on this. I did a write up on the Quiblr “For You” feed here

Math is everywhere!!

I appreciate all the kind words! You are correct that it is a frontend with recommendation engine built in. And the speed likely comes from being a progressive web app.

There are tradeoffs, but it definitely makes thinks “snappier” :)

I pushed an update to Quiblr. I added the instance detail to the Communities page. Additionally, the vertical 3 dot ellipses on each post has an option called Post Detail >> I added the original post url here

Let me know if you have any additional feedback!

That is an effect of the dynamic sizing (adjusting the style for different screen dimensions) + it may be because the items are in a flatlist. I will add a dynamic image size setting option tonight to allow users to show the full image ratio rather than a standardized image size.

Edit: dynamic image size setting is now live

I use Kofi for donations (button in the top bar). I build and pay for everything myself so support is appreciated!

Let me know if you have any feedback!

I see what you mean. To clarify, Quiblr as a platform is also 100% private. It doesn’t even use Google Analytics. The only data that I collect is anything submitted via the Feedback form + Umami for analytics .

No. Posts are not downloaded and Quiblr is purely a frontend (you can choose which instance you want to use). The algorithm basically crafts the relevant API calls to populate the For You feed with content that matches your usage preferences. Those preferences and metadata are all stored on your device

Quiblr is purely a frontend. It creates a standardized experience across Instances (including the feed personalization). Im not super familiar with Kbin. If it uses the same API as Lemmy then it should work.

Long-term, I’d love to integrate more and more fediverse platforms into Quiblr

Gotcha. That should be an easy addition. I’ll see if I can push an update tonight!

Edit: I noted this in a separate comment, but I added the instance info to the communities page + the original post url to the Post Details page (via the 3 dot ellipses)

All front-end.

And thanks for the feedback. Can you elaborate what you mean by “can’t find the real URL of anything”?
