EDIT: This is now released.

Hey! I’m almost done with a new feature and was looking for some feedback. I’m adding alternate post layouts for when viewing posts in a feed. There’s a new setting for it:

(List is the default, the only style until now)

Card layout shows the post’s image at full height, and the first few lines of the embedded description/post content (got some of the ideas from Sync).

Compact Layout uses smaller thumbnails and fonts to fit a bit more on screen.

With this I’m also working towards mobile support. You’ll find things generally work a bit better now with this.

Anyways, let me know how things go, if you find any bugs, or if you have any other feedback.

    Oh… this is my kind of shit!

    I also agree that title works better on top of the image!

    With cards, it reminds me of when I had the Voyager PWA on my desktop. One difference (apart from the colour) is that Voyager has the title above the image, rather than below. As for which way around works best, it unfortunately depends on the post.

    I moved from Voyager to Alexandrite because I didn’t like all the blank space on either side of posts. I can see how this works much better for mobile though, so it makes sense if you’re targeting those platforms next.

    These options don’t look bad at all! From a quick glance at all three options there doesn’t seem to be any bugs.
