Go upgrade!

Compact posts can be enabled through settings. (Additional layout config to come.)

The Apollo migration takes your reddit subs and makes it easy to tap through to search for equivalent lemmy communities. It’s really fun to explore!

Oh, and ICYMI, 0.6.0 and 0.7.0 were release with some nice updates too, including viewing sidebars and comment editing!

    So much more usable for me now, thank you!

    Awesome to see the pace of development

    Would be great to see a reversed compact view

      Reddit: We can’t create a usable app in years, even after buying another app that worked.

      This Random Dude: Let me rebuild the most popular Reddit app for another service in, like, a week.

      (I know this is hyperbole, but I, too, am impressed by all the updates. I think I started using this at 0.5.0 or something and in 24 hours it’s up to 0.8.0 with several QoL improvements.)

      Or maybe instead of a reverse compact view, take the Apollo approach and allow the user to select left/right for thumbnails and the vote icon?

    Another reminder that if you use lemmy.world via wefwef, rate limiting is still breaking things. :-(

    Temporary alternatives:

    1. Use a lemmy account from a different lemmy instance
    2. Use a different wefwef instance (or self host!)

      Is that why I can’t vote or other things?

    Thanks for all your work!

      Should be the ongoing rate limit issue with lemmy.world.

      If you try any other instance, it should be smooth :)

    Love the compact view. Could we have an option to hide thumbnails also so it’s just post titles only?

    Very cool! Just waiting for a way for wefwef to remember my choice on comment ordering. It’s always sorted by hot and I always change it to most upvoted.
