Photon v1.13.0: Photon is now a drop-in replacement! - eviltoast

I’ve added the following:

  • password resets
  • verify email routes
  • option to change password when logged in
  • a warning message when your session expires

Photon can now be used as a default UI with (hopefully) no issue!

However, Photon cannot setup a new instance currently. This only works on instances that have already been setup with lemmy-ui, you can swap it out.

v1.15.0 will add a UI to do this.

instance admins, a docker image and setup instructions are available here. It is recommended you set the PUBLIC_SSR_ENABLED env var to true to let search engines crawl the site.
