Xylight (Photon Dev)

I need to add language settings to communities and profiles. I really dislike how lemmy handles this though.

If you change it in lemmy-ui, it will propagate to Photon because it’s an account wide setting.

Same happens for me on gboard.

Photon has complete moderator capabilities, what’s missing?

Photon is available for any instance at https://phtn.app.

Alexandrite is available for any instance at https://alexandrite.app.

I don’t like when instances will host photon for anything other than the default interface, as then it’s just a more limited, outdated version of photon and another point of failure.

Even as the dev I feel this about photon, i spend so much time messing with dark theme’s colors just to end up preferring light mode anyway

Just curious, how do you compress images? Is there a web API?

Wow, the new FCC law made comcast raise my generous 10Mbps upload to 25Mbps! It’s $80/mo for this shit.

i played valorant then tried cs2 and preferred that, and as a benefit it runs on linux

MBFC of all things.

How could I fight with the truth? Gonna need a different argument.

man probably said a slur, got his comment removed, and now dedicates his time to complaining about it

i’m tempted to make a stupid feature where it turns into an ace attorney fight after about 15 comments of depth.

The “rewrite” is actually gonna be a fully separate project because it has a very different idea than Photon, and I’ll maintain them separately. I’ve learned since v1.29 not to make big UX changes, since the response was widely negative.

I’m not asking you make this the default frontend, I was just wondering what issues you were talking about.

Other instances have updated just fine, the most common issue being nginx header buffers being too low.

I contacted them about it.

Why would me refactoring something break things? Are you applying custom patches or something? Or have you just noticed it being unstable?

hello fellow client dev

I don’t understand what this means. There are no redirect calls at all in photon other than for /comment urls, and certain layouts.

You have not seen some photon instances lol. lemdro.id’s admins have been really busy, so I don’t blame them for anything. they’ve also been early supporters from the start of photon.

Here’s a list of ancient photon instances i’ve seen:

reddthat

lemy.lol (so old that it literally crashes on load)

programming.dev

lemmings.world

I really dislike when people host photon on their own stuff, and I prefer people use phtn.app. There’s greater chance for error and old versions can give people a negative view of the client.

Hey, I’m the Photon dev. I’d like to know which parts Photon incorrectly displayed, so far I only see tables rendering incorrectly. I’ll have this fixed soon.

Update: fixed table displays, pushed to main

Could this be updated now? 🥺 (you can test here)
