Subject: Use serde(skip) instead of skip_serializing, add placeholder values (#3362)
X-Git-Url: http://these/git/%7B%60%24%7Bdocument.location.origin%7D/feeds/%7Bthis.captchaPngSrc%28%29%7D?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cb91eedd24a0a5b9c8275309461c886ee9a7b3ef;p=lemmy.git

Use serde(skip) instead of skip_serializing, add placeholder values (#3362)

* Use serde(skip) instead of skip_serializing

The latter breaks lemmy_crawler as the field is not included in
the Lemmy API, but is required when attempting to parse API responses.
Should only use serde(skip) to avoid this problem

* use option

* add placeholders

* no unwrap
