QuadRadical (Ping) | ive asked we will see but that makes sense yeah | 15:41:33 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | maybe | 15:41:53 |
K900 | Honestly I am extremely worried by the idea of "let's just copy Discord's API" | 15:41:56 |
K900 | Because not only is the Discord API only really supported by Discord clients | 15:42:04 |
K900 | Which you can't use with your Discord clone anyway | 15:42:09 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | flori is very open to feedback for this stuff so its worth stopping by and talking to them a bit | 15:42:11 |
K900 | But it's also fucking terrible | 15:42:14 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | also spacebar clients | 15:42:17 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | spacebar clients will likely be compatable with polyphony with only a little modification | 15:42:33 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | i did ask about this as well, i was told its not that bad, but idk | 15:42:45 |
Charles | oh is it straight up a copy | 15:42:57 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | its api compatable with spacebar, which is api compatable with discord | 15:43:14 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | so yeah | 15:43:15 |
Charles | ew | 15:43:20 |
K900 | It is bad | 15:43:36 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | you think its a bad idea as well? | 15:43:36 |
K900 | For one it doesn't have sync | 15:43:43 |
K900 | Which is insane | 15:43:45 |
K900 | Well it doesn't have an equivalent to what Matrix calls sync | 15:44:04 |
K900 | i.e. "give me everything I've missed" | 15:44:10 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | hmm | 15:44:16 |
K900 | You have to either listen on the websocket permanently | 15:44:18 |
Charles | the main thing i know about discord's API is the sheer number of people it has burned out on working with discord | 15:44:18 |
K900 | Or you have to poll every single room | 15:44:29 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | i see | 15:44:45 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | you can talk to the devs in their discord, or theres a bridged irc, if you have feedback https://discord.gg/rppR56dA | 15:44:46 |
K900 | Honestly? I don't care enough to do that | 15:45:13 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | okay | 15:45:35 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | they say "it will be way easier than on matrix." | 15:45:42 |
Charles | i don't believe that | 15:46:08 |
