Yes, almost all team members are contributing code, designs, feature requests, etc. I called out @Rooki@lemmy.world specifically because he's been a major contributor. One of the admins is actively recruiting people to help contribute to Sublinks, this is how we got so much support so quickly. It's a very close collaboration. I owe a lot of thanks to the Lemmy.World team.
A new front-end is coming too. We need a new front-end to support all the new features we’re adding.
Yes, there is going to be a tool that exports from Lemmy via a direct database connection and adds to Sublinks via the API. Sublinks is heavily event driven by design. We'll want some events to trigger during import.
It's basically a fork of Lemmy. But rather than forking, we're rewriting the entire tech stack to something easier to support and enhance. You can see the full roadmap here: https://github.com/orgs/sublinks/projects/1
That’s the goal, yes.
The LW admins have helped contribute to Sublinks. They've given me full support and access to all resources to help grow it. They've been extremely helpful.
We are creating a Sublinks specific API that is much more optimized than the Lemmy one. Our front-end will be using that. Also, we'll have tons more features that the Lemmy core doesn't support.
The front-end is coming later. It’s fully compatible with Lemmy’s API so the demo site currently uses the Lemmy front-end.
Thanks a lot! There are currently 13 contributors; it's coming together very quickly. I'm super excited.

A few Subreddits were planning to come over at the end of the month that didn't work out. Their members revolted and threatened to replace the mods. So they stayed over there. It would have been over 200k people if they all came over, even if not all members came. I thought I was under planning at the time.
I was reaching out to Reddit mods, trying to convenience them to join my instance. It almost worked, haha.
But in the end, I had to scale down while still maintaining something snappy. The DB is already over 15G, and I want to use a managed db. It's too large to put on smaller instances.
My wife and I picked out her ring together. She has to wear it all the time. I think she should have say in the matter. Ask your partner to help you pick one out.
