After some back-and-forth with a few people, some very generous drinking about it, and, quite frankly, just not having a new hobby lined up yet, I've decided to un-archive the repo and continue limited development of Tesseract.
What do I mean by limited?
- By and large, it'll be in maintenance mode only.
- I'm no longer spending time here on the platform (this announcement notwithstanding). This means I will not notice annoyances and bugs like I used to. Any bug/annoyance must be user-reported in detail on Github.
- Mod tooling will likely not see any changes except maybe bugfixes. I have stepped down as mod in all communities and self-destructed my instance, so there is no longer any way for me to test privileged API calls.
- There will probably never be support for Lemmy 1.0 or anything beyond the current 0.19.x API
- Piefed support is still up in the air; if/when Piefed support happens, it will be in place of Lemmy and not concurrent with.
- The Matrix rooms and support/announcement community are not coming back. All bugs, questions, etc will need to be submitted via Github. New versions will not be announced other than in the "Releases" list on Github
- The unlocked, hosted instance formerly at "tesseract.dubvee.org" will not be coming back; you will need to self-host or ask your instance admin(s) to offer it as an alternative UI.
- I'm more likely to remove features and fine tune what's left than add anything new.
- I am taking a more opinionated approach to options, settings, etc. The codebase has become a fustercluck, so some options are likely on the chopping block in favor of "this is just how it is"
1.4.42 is in development.
The hero lives on!
