Interstellar App
You should improve your return on post submissions The app does not let the user know in any way that their post has been successfully submitted This makes it extremely embarrassing when you accidentally launch a spam attack due to simple ignorance, and then have to delete everything and apologize.
It comes with almost all MD3 apps, but this page is really hard to use. I wonder if there's some possible tweaks to make it better.
[github.com/jwr1/interstellar/releases/tag/v0.6.0 ](https://github.com/jwr1/interstellar/releases/tag/v0.6.0) I'm going to start with this warning (just so no one misses it), but don't use push notifications if your Mbin server is on v1.7.0, v1.7.1-rc1, or v1.7.1-rc2. More info below. ## Features - Add option to set default feed filter - Create a panel for post links along with a menu for alternative sources. Thanks to [this post](https://dubvee.org/post/1621850) for the idea. - Add a View Source menu button to see a post or comment's markdown. - Add a restricted posting indicator to magazines - Add Open in Browser option to the magazine page - (Mbin only) Add View Moderators option to the magazine page - Add a pinned post indicator - (Mbin only) Add a magazine owner panel for editing title, description, list of mods, and magazine deletion - (Mbin only) Start work on a magazine mod panel with a "Bans" tab - (Mbin only) Implement thread/microblog moderation actions, including pinning, marking NSFW, deleting, and banning - (Mbin only) Add Mbin push notification support with UnifiedPush. This only works if you have a [UnifiedPush distributor](https://unifiedpush.org/users/distributors/) installed on your Android device. Once installed, you just have to click "Register push" on the notifications page for all the accounts you want to receive push notifications for. WARNING: Do not use push notifications if your Mbin server's version is less than v1.7.1-rc3; there is a critical bug present that WILL DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT if you press the unregister button on the affected versions. The affected versions are v1.7.0, v1.7.1-rc1, and v1.7.1-rc2. You can see a list of Mbin servers with their versions here: [joinmbin.org/servers](https://joinmbin.org/servers/). - Add a True Black (AMOLED) toggle in the settings - Use built in themes from the flex_color_scheme package for theme selection. This replaces the current theme selection we used to have with a list of premade themes (35 total). - Set the default default explore sort to newest ## Fixes - Fix Mbin image comments not displaying images - Fix post view image scaling issues - Fix user cover alignment and scaling - Fix thread comment Open Link url - Fix nsfw image blurring reveal - Fix an undocumented notification type causing errors due to missing subject ## Other - Add Interstellar to the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repo. It can be viewed here: [apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/one.jwr.interstellar](https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/one.jwr.interstellar). - Remove kbin.run from recommended instances due to shutdown and admin disappearance :(
## Features - The user page now shows the date a user joined. - A user's username now has icon indicators for "Cake Day", "New User" (created within 14 days), and "Bot Account". These indicators show in threads/microblogs, comments, the explore users page, and profile pages. - Move the thread "Domain" button to the overflow menu, in order to give more room for other UI elements (and since it's not frequently used). It looks like "More from youtube.com". ## Fixes - Decode Lemmy thread and comment responses as utf8; by @olorin99. - Add a safe area to nav drawer so it doesn't bleed into the status bar on Android. - Fix the markdown editor's toolbar button sizing. - Fix post date format so instead of "2024-06-10T18:52:24.000Z", for instance, it shows "June 10, 2024, 6:52:24 PM". - Fix user profile followers & following inconsistent UI. - Fix default threads sort setting not saving.
## Features - Mark NSFW and OC posts with badges. - Add a navigation drawer that displays starred users & magazines along with the selected account's subscriptions/follows. - New markdown editor with a preview/edit toggle, many formatting buttons, keyboard shortcuts, and auto incrementing lists (on enter). - Add subscript, superscript, and Lemmy spoiler markdown support. - Add Lemmy specific sorting options. - Display the blurhash of post images and user/magazine avatars. - Make images in markdown clickable (for full screen). - Adds support for editing and deleting Lemmy posts. - New feed filter settings to hide posts that match any given pattern. - Add a compact preview mode that limits thread titles to one line and hides the body preview. ## Fixes - Sync notification indicators and recheck every minute while the app is open. - Add search debounce to explore pages to fix lagging results. ## Other - Remove iOS, macOS, and web platform files and build actions. - Remove kbin support and all references in code. Additionally, the Interstellar icon was remade without the kbin icon section.
