A tiny menu bar app that shows Lemmy posts.
(lemmy.ml)

Finally I can stay forever on lemmy even not opening the browser! 😂
Thinking of using it as a mod tool to see new posts in communities I moderate.
Sharing it early, maybe get some ideas on how to make it better.
Can you pease add a bit of context , what do you mean by the “new comments” ?
Since under the hood it just fetches api and displays a formatted data in a tray, it can be definitely be comments instead of posts
i browse lemmy by sorting for new comments to see what posts are currently active; it's effectively an rss feed, but it has many limitations like it's narrow time limit.
In this case - yes , this tray app may definitely have such functionality in a future iterations . As for new /active posts it already does this.
yeah, this is different that posts; it's the comments and that setting on lemmy doesn't seem to reflect what's actually active.
i plan to change that once i feel like i've taught myself enough rust to lend a hand in lemmy's development.
