Have you ever switched to light mode after being on dark mode for years? in c/[email protected]

Even as the dev I feel this about photon, i spend so much time messing with dark theme's colors just to end up preferring light mode anyway

It could be that it's playing in a codec that your mobile browser doesn't support like av1 or something. Not sure though, is this happening with every video?

Just curious, how do you compress images? Is there a web API?

Any ideas on a way to make it more intuitive that you can click it?

Is there a way to ban a non-commenter who keeps abusing the report system? in c/[email protected]

Photon actually doesn't have this currently, but it's a good idea, as I moved appointing moderators to community settings. I'll add this soon!

What are your favourite extensions? in c/[email protected]

Can it auto detect when a website supports dark theme? Otherwise I noticed that it will ruin the colors of sites already in dark theme

Extrapolation takes quite a while, and there are other benefits to having a language file, like reusability.

[Released] [1.31.0] Big speed improvements and infinite scroll (github.com)

This update is currently available on phtn.app, with a tagged release coming soon. Post navigation is down by 65% and returning from posts is instant.

What's Changed

feat: add infinite scroll

You can now scroll down infinitely without clicking next!

As a bonus, returning from a post page is now instant.

Of course, you can turn it off in settings.

A virtual list is also used so that infinite posts can be loaded with no performance impact.

feat: parse tags from title

Tesseract dev and I had the same idea, [tags in brackets] in posts will automatically be converted to a badge/flair. You can click it to search for all posts with that tag in a community.

I added options which let you choose flairs to blur posts of or hide.

tweak link design

improve smaller screen support

codebase: move $profile to a derived, immutable store to improve consistency

i18n: add new languages/update languages

Chinese

English

Estonian

French

Finnish

German

Hebrew

Portuguese

I'm working on adding a feature that will convert tags in the title to flairs, which you can add custom filters/rules to.

Hey, I've been working on a few changes to photon that make it a lot faster to open posts and return, and as a result of these changes I can also make infinite scroll work. If you go to this link, Vercel will have commented on the post with a preview link. Those are basically the beta links.

Preview Link

Let me know of any bugs and any changes you'd like!

Current roadmap

[x] Make this not duplicate posts in memory
[ ] Make this work on all posts
[x] Use a virtual list for better render performance
