There was like 8 prereleases for this because i kept changing stuff. This is actually going to be from v1.31.1 and v1.31.2.
Biggest changes
Command palette
- Press
/orctrl + pand start typing to instantly go to a page, switch themes, switch accounts, etc.
Theming changes
- You can now have multiple presets for themes, and there are 5 default presets. (Default, Classic, AMOLED, Catppuccin, Lightly)
- Admins can set their own default theme for photon with
PUBLIC_THEME.
New markdown renderer
- Photon now uses svelte-markdown for markdown rendering, which lets me use custom components for markdown.
- Instead of only style changes, I can run actual code, meaning images can be made expandable and codeblocks can be copyable.
Lots of languages
- There are a ton of languages thanks to the community.
- English
- Hebrew
- Bulgarian
- Chinese
- Dutch
- Estonian
- Finnish
- French
- German
- Japanese
- Polish
- Portuguese
Minor features
- New "link actions" menu
- This will have options for archive sites to bypass paywalls, etc.
- Media bias action was moved next to here, or in here depending on your selected post style.
- Allow uploading multiple images at a time
- Select menus use my own components now, making them more powerful
- Add infinite scroll to communities too
- Add uploaded media/voted posts in your profile page
- Using my own service worker now, so caches should work properly
Other stuff
- Use sharper icons for readability
I need to add language settings to communities and profiles. I really dislike how lemmy handles this though.
If you change it in lemmy-ui, it will propagate to Photon because it's an account wide setting.
