I'm testing a feature in my current dev branch and would like some feedback. The technical side of it is complete, but I'm curious about the human side of it.

When loading a removed comment in the comment section, it automatically fetches the removal reason from the modlog and appends it below 'Removed by Mod" on the comment. The "Removed by Mod" text is also linked to the modlog entry for the item.

Additionally, if you're a mod, it will also append, in a spoiler block, the original comment that was removed. Somewhere between 0.19.3 and 0.19.9, the Lemmy devs decided mods should no longer be able to see removed comments in their own communities, which I think is a huge regression (though thankfully admins can still see them).

Thoughts? Is this asking for drama, or would it be g

What is Lemmy?

Lemmy is a self-hosted social link aggregation and discussion platform. It is completely free and open, and not controlled by any company. This means that there is no advertising, tracking, or secret algorithms. Content is organized into communities, so it is easy to subscribe to topics that you are interested in, and ignore others. Voting is used to bring the most interesting items to the top.

Changes

This release fixes a security vulnerability which allows an attacker to delete images uploaded by other users. You can read the details in the security advisory. Thanks to @Nothing4You for discovering and fixing it.

A new donation dialog is shown to users once per year, to help fund Lemmy development.

There are also various backports from the development branch. Importantly the "Private instance" setting can now be

Hello Lemmy. I just released a new Lemmy client for iOS. I'm still working on a few key features (background notifications, word block filters, i18n, community creation and moderation, plus a few other random things). I hope to have them complete soon. If you have the time, please take a look and let me know how I can make it better: Maliki Issues.

I want to release this app for Android, but Google requires that I have 12 Android testers. Anyone up for that?

Hey there!

I just published Voyager's new promo site at https://getvoyager.app/. This site is intended to be an easy way to share the app with your friends and family. Let me know what you think! I'm hoping to roll out a couple more improvements to user onboarding soon™️, so stay tuned.

In other news, I hope you like the latest app update! ICYMI: the video player was significantly revamped, you can now upload videos (assuming lemmy instance support: keep reading...), and Android users can now long press links to preview the url, as well as for share/copy/open options.

Speaking of videos: If you've ever wondered why videos sometimes fail to play in iOS, it's because many Lemmy instances are misconfigured. Please share this site I just published with your Lemmy admin to help debug issues: https://aeharding.github.io/lemmy-streaming Around 50% of instances a

The focus of this release is to add support for importing/exporting tables from the database of the app.

A lot of preferences/data, especially those that allow you to add to a list, are built on top of tables. Tables allows the app to scale better when lists can grow very long. Some features that use tables include drafts and bookmarked communities.

Currently while the app allows users to import/export settings, the app does not give the user any way to import/export anything backed by tables. This means not everything can be carried over by importing/exporting settings.

This release aims to give users a way to preview the database within the app and export them and import them with a high level of configurability.

This feature is a prerequisite of a larger feature which will be announced later.

Full changelog

• Add support to import/export app data that is stored in tables.
• Improve performance o

Changes

• Fix comments not showing up after submitting
• Fix bug where saved posts feed was only showing posts local to your server
• Refresh inbox tab more frequently

• Improve performance of post feeds (most noticeable on iOS)
• Fix dark mode flicker

• Increase the sizing of the login form to make it to use

Appreciate all the feedback so far!

I'm struggling a little to get the performance I want on iOS. I'm curious if anyone is using an older iPhone. I wo
