Perfect! Thank you. I went to make a donation through the app but forgot it's TestFlight mode so it isn't real. Do you have a buymeacoffee.com or other means? Want to help in order to get widget support (⊃。•́‿•̀。)⊃
Working on widgets today, I’ll hopefully have a few ready by this evening.
٩(◕‿◕。)۶ thank you!
I didn’t quite get them ready yesterday, but I almost have the first set of post feed widgets ready.
large medium small options
I’ll hopefully have these ready by tomorrow, I still have a bit to do improving the layout and adding variants for the display style. I have a bunch of other ideas for widgets too, but if you have any requests, I’m happy to add them to the list.
Those look great! My only request is the ability to show from multiple communities from my home feed. Thank you
I think I have this first set of widgets ready to go. I should hopefully be able to release them tomorrow.
About the multiple communities, do you mean multiple communities in the same widget, or different communities for different widgets?
Right now you can select an account and use your home feed (subscriptions) as the listing type. Or you can choose individual communities for different widgets. If you mean multiple communities in the same widget, this may have to wait until I add support for community groups in Arctic just because the widget settings UI would not allow for configuring multiple communities in a user friendly way.
As for community groups in Arctic, I actually stumbled upon something the other day that resolves one of my key concerns about community groups, so I may be adding support for those very soon.
Community groups would be an awesome addition!
I’ve wanted to incorporate these for a while now, and I’ve just been putting it off primarily for performance reasons while loading multiple feeds concurrently. I finally found a solution that handles this quite well, so I’m definitely excited to incorporate groups.
I’ve been holding out hoping that lemmy would incorporate this in the API, which I believe they have planned, but with the fragmentation of communities on Lemmy, I’d like to add support for this sooner rather than later.
Would it be possible to group similar posts / crossposts like on the web interface?
That would be a neat feature.
(this is photon web interface (), this is default lemmy web ui), both show crossposts below the original posts, but photon ui is more detailed than lemmy web ui.
Alright, I’ve added support for embedded . I should hopefully be pushing out the next update either this evening, or tomorrow.
Awesome!
