Eternity, loved it on Reddit, love it on Lemmy, bless the Open Source community for keeping it alive
Eternity cause it feels like I never left Infinity
Voyager but keeping an eye on the development of Raccoon.
Damn am i the only one who uses Connect? Lol
Voyager. I tried a few others but Voyager has a very slick UI and all the features I want.
Right now I’m mostly using mlmym (the “old” interface on most instances that support it) because it doesn’t require JS for basic viewing.
It’s kind of buggy though, unfortunately – things like user history show up as a complete jumble, for example. :(
One of these days, I’ll probably get fed up enough to go write my own interface and set things up exactly how I want them to work… but I’ve got too many projects already so I’m just living with it for now.
Do you have any examples of the user history being jumbled up? Might be caused by the way the lemmy api returns user activity. If the page size is 10 results, it’s going to return 5 comments and 5 posts regardless of how recent they are.
You can open any profile with multiple pages worth of posts or comments on old.reddthat.com and it’s jumbled. Even my own profile is jumbled: https://old.reddthat.com/u/e0qdk
The first page is mostly comments I made two weeks ago plus a thread from today and some very old threads. The second page has comments I made earlier today and during the past week. The third page starts with my most recent comment and then has a bunch of older comments.
The exact order might change after posting this, but my own recent comments mostly being on page two has been pretty consistent for a while.
If I look at a very active user’s profile (like MentalEdge’s), I see threads from today show up on page three(!) while there are threads from a week or more ago on pages one and two.
I’m not sure what’s going on exactly, but it basically makes user profiles pretty useless right now through mlmym.
Edit: I can’t even find this comment in my profile, but my other reply (regarding the envelope being fixed in 0.0.43) shows up on page 3.
Hey OP, I love you! I never used a Lemmy WebApp because I see no sense in it, but I tried Photon because of some comments in your post and holy fuck I have missed so much! It’s incredible that I can even have two accounts at the same time from different instances without changing the URL!
glad you like photon! :)
Hey, I FUCKING love Photon and as soon as I can I’m going to donate to the project, but I have three questions: Is there any kind of official community for the project? And, is there a way to search communities and only communities? I mean, I can search for posts and then search for communities where that post may be, but can I search for communities directly, and lastly, how can I join a community within Photon?
- Hey, thanks! The official community for Photon is !photon@lemdro.id (lemdro.id has helped a lot with the project and feedback, so I decided they should be it’s home.)
- To search communities and only communities, you can either press the globe icon in the navbar (which is better for searching just communities), or you can use the search button and filter by communities.
- To join a community in Photon, you can click subscribe in the explore page (globe icon) or you can go to the community, click the three dots at the top right, and click subscribe. (On a wide enough screen, the subscribe button along with community info will be on the right.)
