Just one day ago I released my initial release of the Overseer and I was annoyed by the implementation almost immediately. The requirement to register on another Lemmy instance using a custom username and wait for manual approval (which could also lead to someone sniping that username, and forcing me to manually delete it), and [...]

I’ve spent the whole day on this, but now joining and using the Fediseer (previously known as Overseer) should be an order of magnitude easier!

    I actually do need someone to build a spiffy frontend! You can already start, the REST API is fully documented

      I may very well do that once I’ve gotten a prototype of my mailing list thing going. I’m hoping to get an initial version of that out today or tomorrow. I am overengineering it a bit for this first release with most everything going through job queues so it (hopefully) doesn’t fall apart as soon as people actually start using it and can scale somewhat easily if necessary.

      P.S. You may find my mailing-list thing useful for letting admins (or other interested parties) subscribe to get updates about Fediseer from you as PMs rather than relying on them happening to see updates posted to communities. If you’re interested LMK and I can set you up as one of the beta users once it’s ready.
