Sync for Lemmy Beta 96 release notes - eviltoast

New

  • Support for Lemmy 0.19
  • Lots and lots of refactoring cleaning up technical debt
  • Added “Account settings” to replace “Lemmy Settings”
    • This new section syncs up with your Lemmy account
    • A few things will need updating such as your nsfw setting and sort

Changes

  • Any action that fail now alerts the user via notification
  • Show / hide NSFW has been moved to Settings > Account settings (this now respects your account choice)
  • Sort has been moved to Settings > Account settings (this also now respects your account choice)

    try apkpure web, no malware found there as far as I know. Maybe you’ll need to install the apkpure app to install the apk. if that so, make sure you uninstall it once done.

    apkmirror is also OK. Check there first before apkpure.

      Do downgrades work that way? I’ve only tried updating installed app with apk files, never downgrading. I’ll report back if I try.

        it may not work as the data may have been changed by the updated app. but, you’ll be fine if you’ve made some backup. You can just delete all the data/cache and restore from the backup data after that. If haven’t made any backup, there’s no guarantee until you try.
