Summary: Unless anyone speaks up, I'm leaning toward removing those two views.

I'm rewriting the component for the post body preview in the feed to address my own gripes as well as Issue 35 in Github.

TL;DR is that the "Ultra-Compact" and "Reader" views rely on the "Post Body Preview Length" setting and the old method of doing the previews which was just a dumb "show X characters of the post body" based on the un-rendered body markdown.

The new method uses the rendered output and controls the height of the body text for a similar effect. It's also MUCH more responsive and able to take the screen width into account. In short, it's much more flexible, looks much better, and is probably what I should have done the first time.

"Reader" and "Ultra-Compact" rely on a setting that I'm going to be removing. So, rather than re-implement those and complicate what is, finally, a clean/simple refactor, can I just get rid of them?

As the title asks, what beach do you think is the best in town and why?

I am going to (finally) move again the localization of the app to Weblate, just like before the project changed ownership this summer.

Considering:

1. there is a number of messages for the free tier which is shared with the other app;
2. in order to be compatible with Weblate, resource files have to be converted (manually 😅);

I am planning to remove some of the least used languages: Arabic, Bulgarian, Czech, Danish, Greek, Esperanto, Estonian, Hungarian, Croatian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Norwegian (both variants), Dutch, Romanian, Russian, Slovakian, Slovenian, Albanian, Serbian, Swedish, Toki Pona, Turkish… based on the fact that nobody ever reported translation errors (which are there).

Does anyone have any objection? I can add one or two more if you are using some of them (but you've been very silent indeed if you do). All the other languages which have not been mentioned in this list will be preserved.

In the community details, we have a note about "Vote the opposite of the norm":

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

I've read lots of comments here that amount to that being confusing. There's also the fact that not everyone votes like that, so it's hard to really tell from the votes if something is widely considered unpopular or not. Plus, I don't really want to tell people how to vote.

I also just realized that it's slightly unfair to people running with downvotes disabled.

So, should we get rid of that guidance and just assume posts are voted based on their overall merit / agreement? I'll leave that up to you all.

There are two distinguished comments below which will be used as the poll. Upvote the one you wish to vote in favor of. You can downvote the opposing option if you want, but it won't affect the results; I'm only going to look at the upvote counts. I'll leave thi

In the Friendica/Mastodon application I am working on, while it was in alpha and beta stage, I have adopted the Sentry SDK for crash reporting, which works very well on Kotlin Multiplatform and is easier to setup than other (closed source, capitalistic and ugly) alternatives.

In doing so, I made an interesting , while I was submitting the app to open source stores (IzzyOnDroid and F-Droid), that if crash reporting is opt-in (i.e. disabled by default but it can be enabled in the app settings) the app is acceptable for their policies because users have to give their consent to enable reports (which are a form of tracking).

Considering there are users complaining about Raccoon for Lemmy crashing (e.g. while creating posts/comments) and that being a "deal breaker" (understandably!), my question is: would you accept it if I included Sentry, making it opt-in? In this way you could enable it just if there is some reproducible issue

I would like to introduce a new font in the next version, with a particular focus on readability, in order to make the app easier to use.

My choice would be the Atkinson hyperreadable font by the Braille institute, which I personally use in other apps too because it gives my eyes some relief.

However, the APK size of the app increases with every new resource, so instead of just adding a new font I would like to replace the least used of the current ones.

Answer in comments to tell me what you would like to be removed. Thanks as always and #livefasteattrash

As a 4070ti desktop owner, I was wondering how many of you with modern or old hardware have decided to play on linux (wiping windows partition).

To make a long story short, the dates of 2016 and 2022 were chosen as the beginning of the 10xx series era and the end of the 30xx series.

With the recent poll indicating only 29% Koreans support lethal assistance to Ukraine, a lot of Ukrainians are wondering why support is so low.

1. Ukraine had a lot goodwill when war started but it seems a decision was made to woo Japanese support to the detriment of all else support from other asian countries. The Ukrainian ambassador Korsunsky first excused Japanese imperialism during WW2, claimed Japan was a victim of South Korea, compared South Korea to Russia (?), and most recently visited the Yasukuni Shrine (is like visiting Hitler's tomb for Koreans). None of these actions were requested by Japanese government. The

Commissioned by the Arab American Institute (AAI), the online poll of 2,505 American voters conducted between July 31 and August 1 found that 44% of U.S. voters would back Harris, 40% would support Republican nominee Donald Trump, and 11% would vote third party “if the election for president of the United States were held today.”

But if Harris were to endorse a suspension of U.S. arms shipments and diplomatic support for Israel “until there was a cease-fire and withdrawal of forces from Gaza,” her national support would grow from 44% to 49%.

A majority of Democratic voters say the Gaza crisis is either very or somewhat important in determining how they vote in November, according to the AAI poll.

The new survey, which has a margin of error of 2 percentage points, is consistent with a

In her first interview as the Democratic presidential nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris told CNN it was imperative to reach a ceasefire deal in Gaza, but made it clear that she would not alter President Joe Biden’s policy in the region.

However, when pressed on whether she would stop sending weapons to Israel she told Bash, “No, we have to get a deal done, Dana. We have to get a deal done.”

“Adopting an arms embargo against Israel’s assault on Gaza is not only a moral imperative but also a strategic move to defeat Trump and MAGA extremism. It is difficult for the Democratic candidate to champion democracy while arming Netanyahu’s authoritarian regime” reads a recent letter to Harris from the coalition Not Another Bomb.

Recent polling has repeatedly demonstrated that Democratic voters overwhelmingly support the condition

The majority of voters under 30 said it has become harder to buy a house, raise a family and get a good job in comparison to the previous generations, according to a new poll.

The Continent's housing crisis has gone from being a slow burn to a four-alarm fire — but some countries are handling it better than others.

One of Europe’s long-simmering political frustrations is suddenly boiling over.

From Lisbon to Łódź, voters are angry about the lack of affordable housing. Anti-immigrant riots broke out in Dublin last fall, fueled in part by claims that the Irish capital’s limited public housing was being given to foreigners. Meanwhile, in cities like Lisbon, Amsterdam and Milan, thousands of protesters have taken to the

Kevin Roberts remembers when he could get a bacon cheeseburger, fries and a drink from Five Guys for $10. But that was years ago. When the Virginia high school teacher recently visited the fast-food chain, the food alone without a beverage cost double that amount.

Roberts, 38, now only gets fast food "as a rare treat," he told CBS MoneyWatch. "Nothing has made me cook at home more than fast-food prices."

Roberts is hardly alone. Many consumers are expressing frustration at the surge in fast-food prices, which are starting to scare off budget-conscious customers.

A January poll by consulting firm Revenue Management Solutions found that about 25% of people who make under $50,000 were cutting back on fast food, pointing to cost as a concern.

We're adding the ability to customize this in the upcoming release, but I'm wondering what people think would be a good default.

The 4 pieces of showable/hideable info are: Upvotes, Downvotes, Score, and Upvote %.

In Jerboa, I had a temporary default (until the next lemmy release), of Score + Upvote %, but people seem to dislike this a lot.

I'll check back on this in a week to see the result.
