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)
  • Removed “mark posts as read” and “remember across devices” as Lemmy does this automatically

      Doesn’t look like it. Go for it! (Sync doesn’t crash for me, or I’d take care of it)

        Done! Do you have “Hide username in account picker” enabled? If not don’t try it. I wonder if I edited that out of my account backup would it work.

          Hah, I do not have it enabled and will heed your warning. Thanks :-P Hope that’s a thing that gets addressed soon, for you guys!

            I was able to load a post from my browser and disable the setting. All is working now. Hopefully an update gets pushed soon before more people give up and clear their data or move to another app.
