I think it has less bugs too. I really like how it functions.
I like how on the comments, the “-” button was moved to the side. Much better placement.
just collapsed and expanded your comment 5 time to try it 😆
The placement of the minus icon was one of the first things I noticed that I thought could be improved. It’s fantastic to see such responsiveness from the developer(s).
I just noticed that from your comment. It’s much better.
This is phenomenal for a month or two worth of work. There are some dummy skilled engineers out there that got pissed off and acted on their anger - I love it.
Testing if CTRL+ENTER works…
edit: it does.what does it do?
Ctrl+enter posts the comment. It also works in other apps. Compose an email and press ctrl+enter and it will send it. It does on my email provider tutanota.com
Oh man, that would be such a dangerous habit for me to get into! I often think better of an email.
I use shift-enter all the time. Most microsoft products still respond to a proper line-break.
My primary complaint about the ui right now is that on my iPhone when I click on a text box it zooms the whole view in so that the box no longer fits and I get horizontal scrolling. It’s a minor thing but pretty annoying.
Maybe something in the css about focus, seems maybe related to the highlight on the text box which sits outside of the box on all sides.
Not enough compact for my taste
It’s pretty bad. Given time and the open source nature of it, multiple view clients should arrive in short order. Have you checked out https://wefwef.app/ ? It’s a web app (so can be loaded into any browser, mobile or desktop), and it’s attempting to emulate Apollo I think.
I’m using it right now and it’s pretty close to what apollo used to be.
In the comment section or post feed?
Post feed.
On desktop
Mobile is a bit too cluttered with small elements for my taste.
WPAs crash like mad. Now I have to start using apps.
I don’t like the idea of my password being handled by a proxy.
(I hope those native apps don’t do something like that…)
You can look at the wefwef and Jerboa code.
I’m not a programmer.
I’m in the same boat as you which is why I set up my own wefwef instance. It’s a docker container so you can build it and use or if you trust the author just use the one he’s posting on ghcr.io
I’m not in position to self host anything at the moment (this whole Lemmy thing caught me between houses), but since everyone seems to want us to self host something, guess I can add this to the list. Ngl self hosting wefwef sounds cool, although by the time I’ll get around to it, the regular apps will probably mature enough.
Enabling 2FA should solve that issue, right?
Also use throwaway credentials and not get too attached.
Even if the host knows your password, it wouldn’t really matter insofar as that password is only used there and nowhere else, and I hope no one is so super attached to their Lemmy accounts the way they were for their Reddit ones.
The “being attached” component is particularly notable here because due to Federation, instances can choose not to interact with each other, so ultimately one is likely to have multiple accounts on different instances depending on their situation (for example, it wouldn’t surprise me that a number of people have a Beehaw account and then another account on a different instance).
I get the concern, but ultimately I see it as a non-issue.
It is going to be hard but I think if my instance went down or defederated I would be able to detach from my account and start over.
you can selfhost it
I like the new compact themes! I’m hoping someone contributes an old-reddit-lookalike theme soon 🤞
Thanks for the link! Looking at the screenshots though, they don’t seem particularly old-Reddit-like to me, though, unfortunately.
