Xylight (photon dev)

Using the network devtools, you can see that logging in sends the request directly to the instance, and does not send it through the server. The only proxying done is to upload images due to a CORS issue with Lemmy.

The client is open source, you can check it here: https://github.com/Xyphyn/photon

That’s an old screenshot. One sec.

edit: updated the screenshots

this shit … which I hate

it looks like someone with UX experience was at least in proximity to this at the time it was designed?

ouch. that hurt.

Change the “instance URL” to the instance you use. In your case, you would input showeq.com.

I’ll soon make it so that you can change guest instance without logging in.

Good to know that I broke image caching.

(this is serious)

I couldn’t figure out how to disable it and the cache sizes kept going into the gigabytes, but I somehow broke it recently and caches are sane now.

I see why this is happening, will fix in a sec

Sir

Hot is basically just “active” but based on upvotes, and the people in c/memes think that giving upvotes completely randomly is good for lemmy

How long would this have to run for it to round up to 100%?
