Showing crossposts below comments doesnt work if you have a thread with 100+ comments as it keeps auto-loading more comments. Hiding the crosspost details themselves seems unnecessary as we render them rather small. A button to expand these small details into the full post view with comments also makes sense to me.

Read posts already show with a different color. So this could be a problem with your browser, or the specific Lemmy theme you are using.

Looks similar to the new UI in the PR linked above, except you have to expand it manually.

Just noticed that this post is already two weeks old. Im aware of the other discussion, there are a lot of ideas and we still need to decide what is the best way to implement it.

Could you post a link or screenshot to see how Photon displays crossposts?

I implemented this recently: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/3387

Outgoing federation actions are kept for 7 days. So if your instance is down shorter than that it will catch up with everything.

This is not possible unless you are an instance admin and query the database directly with sql.

curl -H 'Accept: application/activity+json' https://piefed.europe.pub/post/35873 | jq

This directly sends the object json for https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/53225502 which fails domain validation. Instead https://piefed.europe.pub/post/35873 needs to send a redirect to https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/53225502

These types of changes are rather annoying because you need to edit the file, wait about an hour for the release build to finish, then fix any problems and repeat until it works. Though its definitely good to have multiple platforms for releases.

So if you want to make a PR and get it working you are welcome to do that. Then I will add the auth token so you can test it. Github seems preferable as we already use that.

Thats doable with our CI tools (docs). Would you open an issue?

Thank you :)

Thanks!

By the way you can now try the development version of 1.0 on voyager.lemmy.ml.

I developed the Android app for Syncthing years ago. But then I didnt have time (or motivation) for that anymore. Developing Lemmy is much more interesting for me really nowadays.

Message Customization: Send any custom message in Morse code.

Morse Code Decoder: Convert received Morse code into readable text.

Neat, this means you can talk to someone in morse code without having to learn morse. Did anyone try how well it works in practice?

Good point, this is one of those features which is already implemented in the backend but not added to lemmy-ui yet. Made a pull request for it.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/3220/files

Lemmy has an open API, and instance admins have even more data available by accessing the database directly. One of the lemmy.world admins is also working on a feature for vote analytics, though at Lemmy’s current size it seems very low priority.

I thought about that too, have to figure out how it can be implemented (im not very good at frontend stuff).

No worries. Make sure to follow the documentation on join-lemmy.org for development, and use the release/v0.19 branch for both lemmy and lemmy-ui as the main branch is currently broken due to 1.0 changes.

Makes sense. My idea is to use a fixed order for the different types of results, eg always put communities first, then users etc. What do you think? For communities it would make sense to display the short description as well, and for users both post and comment count?
