Welcome to Dev update 16

As always, all changes are already on nemmy.app.

By the way, the screenshots I post in the updates are sometimes dark and sometimes light mode. Of course every page supports both, dark and light mode.

What changed

New Features

  • You can create Communities now! The UX of creating a Community is (intentionally) very similar to creating a Post, that being it breaks down into own pages.

It's not completely done yet. A confirmation page is still missing and while you can choose between all instances that you have an account for on Nemmy, it currently isn't switching automatically, so only the instance linked to your currently active account works.

I will fix both of these problems today or tomorrow.

Also, as you can see in the screenshots below, you cannot currently upload images directly and have to do a workaround by uploading the images to a third party and then just pasting the direct link into the form.

This is because the "official way" is bugged and I was trying to implement a workaround for 6 hours last night until I finally gave up. I'm still not sure on what the problem exactly is, so right now I will just wait for the maintainers of Lemmy to fix some bugs with the backend and then try again.

  • Sorting and Filtering has finally been added everywhere

Improvements

  • The User and Community pages are now server rendered
  • The current account will now be the first in User Sidebar

  • All user links now link to the internal /u/ Link

That's it for today!

See you all next time :)
