old.lemmy.world
Looks exactly like old reddit
With our without R.E.S?
Tesseract because I made it. lol
I made a Lite App with Hermit because I don’t really trust random app developers? I’m somewhat of a crazy person.
I use the Web UI on desktop.
I use Eclipse on Android, because it’s open-source, I used it on Reddit and was familiar with it, and because Jerboa had some really obnoxious bugs that I don’t recall anymore.
Care to share Eclipse’s url? I can’t find it with a quick Google search or in Droid-ify.
Heh. My fault. It’s “Eternity”, not “Eclipse”
Jerboa. Because it’s fully open source and it’s the first one I installed and I have yet to have enough of a problem with it to look for alternatives. (The left-right swipe features are… not a good thing, but they’re not bad enough to make me want to switch.)
Yeah, I’m a Jerboa user too. The left-right swipe is my only criticism as well, mainly because it can be sensitive when you’re just trying to scroll up or down.
Can’t you just turn that off in the settings?
Yes! I didn’t even think to check until now. Thank you, kind stranger!
Photon because cool design
That’s my go to app for desktop
I use Photon on Android Firefox in light mode. Shocked the hell out of me, too! I use dark mode for everything else.
Voyager, Photon, Lemmynade, Tesseract, Alexandrite.
Voyager - it was on f droid and it works.
Arctic and Mlem for iOS.
Arctic is my primary, it was the first that I know of to include admin tools, the single developer is super accessible and on top of for resolving bugs and does a good job at supporting markdown both in the editor and the viewer.
Mlem is my backup if I need to access 2 different spots on the Lemmy-verse. It has a great viewer and interface but is missing a markdown editor.
Summit. It just works
Not only does it just work but it’s beautiful
Sync and idk why.
Sync and I was already used to it when I abandoned Reddit.
Photon on desktop (although it’s excellent on mobile too), however I use Boost on Android, and Voyager on iOS. Native apps always feel a little more cohesive
Thunder because it’s sleek.
None, because I don’t use lemmy.
Right now I’m mostly using mlmym (the “old” interface on most instances that support it) because it doesn’t require JS for basic viewing.
It’s kind of buggy though, unfortunately – things like user history show up as a complete jumble, for example. :(
One of these days, I’ll probably get fed up enough to go write my own interface and set things up exactly how I want them to work… but I’ve got too many projects already so I’m just living with it for now.
Yeah I wanted to love mlmym but it’s just too buggy and laggy for me. Hopefully lemmy-ui-next will prove to be a good replacement. If anyone’s curious, that UI can previewed at: next.lemm.ee
I haven’t had much issue with lag, generally, but I don’t get notifications any more – which is probably the most pressing issue. (I have to remember to manually check once in a while after I post since the envelope doesn’t light up.) That might be an issue with reddthat being on a recent beta version of lemmy – I don’t know.
We do have lemmy-ui-next over here too. Thanks for reminding me about that. I’ve been meaning to poke at it a bit.
The envelope not lighting up bug was fixed in mlmym version 0.0.43
That’s great to hear!
Do you have any examples of the user history being jumbled up? Might be caused by the way the lemmy api returns user activity. If the page size is 10 results, it’s going to return 5 comments and 5 posts regardless of how recent they are.
You can open any profile with multiple pages worth of posts or comments on old.reddthat.com and it’s jumbled. Even my own profile is jumbled: https://old.reddthat.com/u/e0qdk
The first page is mostly comments I made two weeks ago plus a thread from today and some very old threads. The second page has comments I made earlier today and during the past week. The third page starts with my most recent comment and then has a bunch of older comments.
The exact order might change after posting this, but my own recent comments mostly being on page two has been pretty consistent for a while.
If I look at a very active user’s profile (like MentalEdge’s), I see threads from today show up on page three(!) while there are threads from a week or more ago on pages one and two.
I’m not sure what’s going on exactly, but it basically makes user profiles pretty useless right now through mlmym.
Edit: I can’t even find this comment in my profile, but my other reply (regarding the envelope being fixed in 0.0.43) shows up on page 3.
Looks right here https://old.lemmy.world/u/[email protected]
looks like the default sort for the user history api changed in whatever version of lemmy reddthat is running. Fix in the latest mlmym release 0.0.44 accounts for that now!
Thanks! I’ll go ask Tiff about getting reddthat updated later.
BTW, is there a community for discussion of mlmym itself somewhere on lemmy? I can’t participate on GitHub, but those aren’t the only issues I’ve found. (e.g. there’s also
?format=jpg&thumbnail=96on non-pictrs links and a text handling issue with angle brackets…)no lemmy community for mlmym yet, that’s good idea.
do you have an example of that thumbnail issue?
I’m having trouble finding an example of the thumbnail issue again right now but I was seeing the pictrs conversion parameters passed to URLs from catbox.moe, i.postimg.cc, and other sources in the CSS for the thumbnail when I reported the issue to Tiff ~3 weeks ago. It’s possible that it got fixed/suppressed by another change since then though. (0.0.44 was deployed a few hours ago and I think there may have also been a beta patch bump for the lemmy backend at some point since I reported the issue originally in our local support community.)
I’ll let you know if I see it pop up again.
For the text handling issue, I was seeing text like “<thread title> by <username> in <community>” (i.e.
"<thread title> by <username> in <community>"if it still happens) getting misinterpreted as raw HTML instead of being escaped. (i.e.<!-- raw HTML omitted -->was showing up in the HTML output for the page.)You may recognize that text as the pattern for a recently fixed bug in the user profiles; I found the text handling issue while trying to explain the other issue to Tiff a few weeks ago.
Will edit this comment immediately after posting to let you know if I still see the text issue.
EDIT: I still see the text issue show up in this comment. https://old.reddthat.com/comment/10370610
I ran into an example of the thumbnail issue again today – this time on a post from kbin: https://old.reddthat.com/post/19193476
The thumbnail looks like this in the HTML:
<div class="thumb"> <a class="url" href="https://media.kbin.social/media/60/a4/60a45b8ff88b1b2e3a0f77b701feb323c5bbfb7ceeb75154ea7df5d6eea15ef8.jpg" > <div style="background-image: url(https://media.kbin.social/media/60/a4/60a45b8ff88b1b2e3a0f77b701feb323c5bbfb7ceeb75154ea7df5d6eea15ef8.jpg?format=jpg&thumbnail=96)"></div> </a> </div>Note that it’s making a request to kbin.social with
?format=jpg&thumbnail=96parameters in the CSS – which results in the full image being loaded since kbin doesn’t run pictrs.The versions in use on reddthat (according to the settings page) are:
lemmy: 0.19.4-beta.7
mlmym: 0.0.44
This kinda looks like an issue between lemmy and kbin. The issue is present on the lemmy ui as well. The
?format=jpg&thumbnail=96parameter being there doesn’t have an effect here. The issue is the thumbnail_url is reported wrong. You can see that here. The thumbnail_url should be: https://kbin.social/media/cache/resolve/entry_thumb/60/a4/60a45b8ff88b1b2e3a0f77b701feb323c5bbfb7ceeb75154ea7df5d6eea15ef8.jpg We could try and use some regex to lookout for kbin images and rewrite the thumbnail_url, but it should probably just be fixed upstream.Found this github issue which might be related: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3775
