Finally had some time to work on this sorry piece of ass. It should not have taken this long to find some spare time.

youRant Release 0.1.2 (Alpha)
https://github.com/yuriKhordal/...

New Features and Changes:
+ You can now finally vote(++ / --) on rants.
+ Added an updates checker that will notify you when a new release becomes available on github.
+ Expired(but known) devRant Certificates are now trusted, the api calls are now switched back to devrant.com endpoint.
+ Since devRant certificates have been updated, the aforementioned expired certificate trusting has been turned off. Will be togglebale in the future in case certs expire again.
+ Image Attachments (for older rants that had them when they still worked) are now displayed, but not in the best way.

Bug fixes:
* Fixed the Login Page bug where it was possible to recursively open it from itself, forcing you to close them all individually on the way back.

Sorry that rantii / dr.molodetz.nl / mention notifications was down. I noticed late.

We are a 100% not living in a simulation, some are way too random/weird to be a calculation xD

Did you know that most articles published regarding software development are positive? This 'fact' is based on research that I've done for months by auto aggregating more than 30.000 articles. It is a process that i have running for months. 30.000+ LLM calls to evaluate sentiment :P Whoops.

See graphs and tables here: https://my.devplace.net/posts/...

i think i'm realizing I liked the act of programming but had no passion for software... or taking over the world like all those techbros

weirdly enough reading autobiography of benjamin franklin is making me connect weird things. Got any favourite old-timey books you found to be enlightening?

Introducing: The first release of youRant (pronounced 'Your Rant', not 'You Rant'), and in case you missed my previous posts - it's an unofficial third party devRant Android client. The MVP version is done, you can scroll the feed, view rants(& comments), you can log in, and you can post rants and comments. That is the sum all of what you can do as of now, but I consider that to be the absolute minimal set of features to use devRant in any capacity.

The app uses dr.molodetz.nl for api calls (because of the cerificate expiry).
Authentication tokens(for login) are stored encrypted, so even though the app is in alpha the tokens are stored securely so at least from that POV there's no need to worry.

The app can be downloaded from: https://github.com/yuriKhordal/... - There is an APK in the Releases page, and there are some pictures (if you want to look at the progress but don't want to use something is such early stages) in the Readme. I have no clue how to publish shit on Google Play, so currently the github is the only source for installing the app.

Fun fact: This post was made from the app :D

One of my minions gave his 2 weeks notice. They grow up so fast 🥲
