Two hobbies I picked up in the last year was Rust programming and swimming.

I always find it most enjoyable when I go at a pace I’m comfortable with. The point is to stay motivated and if you are, your growth will be automatically guaranteed. You don’t need to be a natural or a genius, you just need to enjoy.

Besides, I’m sure the Rust community is always happy to welcome and support anyone that is curious, I know I am!

I hope that helps, good luck!

I appreciate the example and am happy to admit this is a bad design decision regarding accessibility

As a means of preventing any of these decisions from reaching end-users, I’ll make sure to participate in GitHub discussions before making any PRs

Thank you for the feedback

and note that capitalized text isn’t particularly accessible

Yeah admittedly my “sense” in design has a ways to go. After my exams I’m hoping to read “Don’t let me think Twice”, which is apparently a really good book for UI design. Hopefully maybe i can bring in some of the good concepts from there to Lemmy too

This is great, i wouldn’t mind helping with all Lemmy instances by contributing to the front-end. Thank you <3

Thank you! I was trying to distinguish title-like elements from regular text using a heavier font-weight. I also didn’t like how the Rust logo was hard to see, so I gave it a white background. I was wondering if I could somehow contribute to the website in any way.

Any help would be appreciated!

I may be a programmer, but as a person that doesn’t not own any Apple devices, I might be speaking out of place.

In the coming few days I’m hoping to learn Kotlin/use my prior experience in Rust and try to help the programmers for the Android app bring out features faster.

My reason for bringing this up is that I can’t be the only one that wants to contribute to a good cause like Lemmy and the hope is that there would be participation for iOS programmers too.

But I feel like these things take time, so for now it is too early to make conclusions, especially given the really short timeframe all the migration is happening in

As a user of a shut-down (maybe temporarily) community in Reddit, the fact that it was shut down and has a decently active (migrating) community here is the very reason i have a Lemmy account.

Shutting down on Reddit is a valid working strategy to send a message, so you made the right choice

I saw this issue too, and it’s a common issue throughout many instances migrating from other subreddits

Thanks to that, people have started discussing a way to “join” servers efficiently.

I’m currently a bit busy, but when I get time, I’m looking forward to contributing to the open source project!
