Thank you, I'll try those

I'm not the developer. I came across it and I thought it was neat.
Repository: github.com/GRA0007/crab.fit
Align your schedules to find the perfect time that works for everyone. Open-source and licensed under the GNU GPLv3.
Firefox doesn't seem to do support it currently. Chrome and Brave do come up as options
I'm using a documentation framework that supports offline builds. It works well across browsers on desktop, but it's not great on mobile.
Any recommendations?
I don't see an option to enter that info on StreetComplete or EveryDoor, and it would be hard to open your laptop every time
This was specific to a university campus, to try and map out the amenities available to the public / to students

This is a very small update, but hopefully it's helpful! As I mentioned in the last update, I'm a little tied up with other commitments right now, so I haven't had a chance to implement the other features on the to-do list. This one was requested the other day, and it was simple to add since I could reuse a lot of existing code.

- Firefox Add-on
- Chrome Extension
- Edge Add-on (waiting as of 2023-10-09)

❓ What is Instance Assistant?
If you're new to Instance Assistant, it is a browser extension with a collection of tools and features to simplify your browsing experience on Lemmy and Kbin. It is available on Chrome, Firefox, and Edge; you can also install it from the releases page on GitHub.
For a full list of features, please see the GitHub homepage: https://github.com/cynber/lemmy-instance-assistant
⭐ What's new in v1.2.6?
- Redirect user profile pages: When you want to message a user and click on their profile, you might end up on a foreign instance. To message them, you need to modify the URL or copy/paste. Instead, you will now find a little button to jump you to your home instance.
💛 Also
Thank you for all the suggestions and feedback! Like I said before, I'm really happy to see that people are using the extension and finding it useful. Please continue to make suggestions and contribute your expertise.
Cheers :)
Why YSK: It's a free and open source browser extension we have been working on, which might make it easier to use Lemmy & Kbin. This update in particular brings a few features that make the sites a lot easier to use, in particular the ability to jump from a post on one instance to the same post on another. Since the URL doesn't have any identifiers aside from the post ID number, there hasn't been an easier way to do this. Original cross post below:
Hi everyone, I'm excited to announce one more release before I take a short break. I have some other stuff starting up, so I won't be pushing out new features as fast, but I'll still be around to manage the project. (more at the end)

⭐ What's new in v1.2.5?
- Redirect posts to your home instance!: Post pages now have a redirect button that will find the same post on your home instance(1). You don't have to hunt it down yourself anymore.
- Posts related to this webpage buttons in popup & sidebar
- Make a post: You can now create a post from any webpage! Click the 'Make a Post' button in the extension popup or sidebar to generate a draft post with autofilled
title
,URL
, andbody
contents. Afterwards, just select a community and hit post. (This currently works for both Lemmy & Kbin, but custom frontends are untested while they develop). Try it here: https://lemmy.ca/post/4478560 - Open Posts: This will find any posts about the webpage/article/video that you are looking at. Use it to see if something has already been posted, or to find related discussions about it. When there are multiple posts, it will ask before opening them all. (see note on risks and why it doesn't count automatically)
- Make a post: You can now create a post from any webpage! Click the 'Make a Post' button in the extension popup or sidebar to generate a draft post with autofilled
- Post an image: You can now right-click on an image, anywhere on the web, and hit "Post this image". It will open a new tab and autofill the
title
, imagelink
, and add thepage URL
to thebody
as "Source:URL
". Try it here: https://lemmy.ca/post/1282303 - Reorganizing popup:
- I fixed the issue where the popup would still display a button after removing all instances from the list.
- The number of default instances in the popup was reduced to 4
- Added settings:
- You can now hide onboardining guides to make the interfaces less wordy
- General styling changes, wording improvements, and bugfixes
(1) This is an important feature to me because this little annoyance was part of why I set out to create the extension in the first place. Thanks to some help from @zero_gravitas, I was able to use the Lemmy API to grab the post details, and then run a search for it on your home instance. While most posts should only bring one result, there is a chance that there are multiple posts by the same user, in the same community, with the same title. If this is an issue, I'll make this search more specific.
🗣️ My questions for you:
Improving 'post to Lemmy'
- Right now the 'Post to Lemmy' button does a very basic search in the page meta tags for information. This works for most websites, but it is not perfect. What websites do you usually post from, and is the extension doing a good job of replicating how you format the post? Please share both good and bad examples, so we can fix what isn't working and keep what is.
Improving Post search
- Having the extension automatically count the number of posts and display it in the icon would be pretty nice, since then you would know about any posts for the news article / blog / video that you are looking at. However, there are privacy implications with this since it needs to send the URL to your home instance to do the search.
- I would like to add the option to whitelist specific websites, so the user can choose what browsing data they want to find posts for. Is this something you would list to use? What websites would you whitelist?
Anything else?
Please share any issues that you find. Lemmy and Kbin instances have a lot of variation in how things are structured, so there are bound to be some bugs that I haven't found yet. If you have any ideas for new features, please share them too! I'm always looking for new ideas to add to the project.
🔮 Cool ideas being discussed for the future
- Account switcher & ability to save login info to extension
- Reddit migrator tools
- multireddit input should convert subscriptions to official Threadiverse replacements, or large related communities
- embeds on Subreddit sidebars to search for similar community
- button on post pages to cross-post to home instance
- Prepping for Firefox Mobile app, now that they are opening mobile up to all extensions!
- Keyboard hotkeys, possibly collaborating with someone that already implemented something similar
For the most up to date information, see the issues or the project road map
💛 Finally
Thank you for all the suggestions and feedback so far! I'm really happy to see that people are using the extension and finding it useful. I'm looking forward to seeing what we can do with it in the future.
Like I said above, I won't be as active over the next few months in terms of getting new features out. The extension is now in good shape, and it covers most of the important use cases. There's still lots of cool stuff we can do with it, so please contribute ideas and expertise! When I get a chance, I'll pop in and grab a few more issues.
Cheers :)

Hi everyone!
On the surface, this update brings a handful of features integrating the extension with other tools and services. We have the first of many features from the LemmyTools userscript, as well as the support for Alexandrite and Photon frontends. You can also directly search for communities through Lemmyverse.net and for posts through search-lemmy.com, among other small changes.
The biggest change was behind the scenes. I've completely refactored the code throughout the extension. Now that we have a clearer plan for the extension, I simplified all around, such as consolidating most functions to a central utils.js
file. I also reworked the settings, and unfortunately this means you may have to add your home instance again. Moving forwards, it should be a lot easier to maintain the extension and for people to collaborate, which brings me to:
Want to help?
Get started:
I've put together some notes on how the extension is structured for those that want to help. The extension itself is fairly simple, and it doesn't use any particular framework or anything. It should a great first project to work on, even if you are just learning or new to web development.
Having more people add to one place would make it easier for users that are juggling many extensions and userscripts. That's why I've been focussed on having a more intuitive structure for the project and leaving detailed notes and comments. I'm also likely not going to have as much time starting next month so I'm trying to do what I can now to get everything rolling.
If you don't know where to start or just have an idea, let me know and I'll see what I can do :)
As always, you can add new ideas and issues here: https://github.com/cynber/lemmy-instance-assistant/issues
All new improvements with v1.2.4
New Changes
- search for communities through Lemmyverse.net or for posts through lemmy-search directly from the popup or sidebar
- You now have the option to hide the default Lemmy sidebar (more LemmyTools features to come!)
- Replaced non-functional 'subscribe' button on foreign
/communities
pages (only when no account is signed in, so not to replace something functional) - Support for Alexandrite & Photon frontends. Test them here:
- Alexandrite: https://a.lemdro.id/c/lemdroid
- Photon: https://nu.lemdro.id/c/lemdroid
- New 'communityNotFound' button to account for alternate frontends: https://lemmy.ca/c/[email protected]
- Fix for generated link on CommunityNotFound pages
- Completely refactored the code to move repetitive functions to a utils.js file
Future Plans:
- Exploring a 'Reddit migrator' tool, similar to the mobile tool in Voyager, powered by lemmyverse.net
- Adding more features from LemmyTools Userscript, with help from /u/[email protected]
- Prepping for Firefox Mobile app, now that they are opening mobile up to all extensions!
- Keyboard hotkeys, possibly collaborating with someone that already implemented something similar
- Adding icons and simplifying the design, as the menus are getting very wordy
- settings to limit onboarding / help instructions
- Ability to have multiple 'home instances'
- Finishing the setup so that people can contribute translations / other languages to the extension.

I tried Sync for a bit, but I agree with the other posters that the pricing model is a little outrageous.
Have you considered adding a donation option through google play? I'm not sure what the process is like, but it might make it easier for people to donate.
Thank you for putting all this together!

Having a separate list for extensions would work nicely, although I think it fits to have the extensions listed here. There are few actual browser extensions for Lemmy/Kbin/Mastodon. There are a lot of scripts, and we were working on incorporating the better scripts into the extension for the same reasons you mentioned above. Scripts are harder to manage and review
My thoughts on the questions.
