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like when instances will host photon for anything other than the default interface, as then it’s just a more limited, outdated version of photon and another point of failure.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.

lemmy.blahaj.zone admin is using photon? 😁

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

It’s one of a couple design changes I completely rejected lemmy-ui’s version of. Why on earth is it on a commonly used menu? I feel like it makes so much more sense to put it on the community settings page.

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

I contacted them about it.

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)

What’s the origin of this photo? It looks really cool.

Can’t you just plug your phone straight in and transfer the file? I still prefer KDE connect though.

I don’t really see many benefits of this since it seems to take the same space as a normal laptop

Hey, I’m the dev. I fixed this recently
