I tested safari on an iPhone 15 running iOS 17 and could not find any issues. What OS are you on?
Sure. For now, I've added it to the release notes on the Github. Instance admins should set PUBLIC_DOCK_TOP
and PUBLIC_DOCK_PANEL
to true
.
Yes, you can set the old navigation style as the default.
Please read the post.
- If you dislike the change, go to settings and press "Legacy Navigation Style". It is at the top of settings.
Tesseract has infinite scroll, it makes me jealous because I can't find a clean way to implement it

glad you like photon! :)
Because PWAs are such a pain to manage, it's pretty difficult for me to let the PWA have the icon and name of the instance that hosts it. You can customize your colors from the main menu > theme though.
Native looking apps are a requirement for a lot of people.
I never thought I would go down a rabbit hole about a nursery rhyme that is associated usually with an egg
Photon calls /resolve_object. If you type what you typed in photon in the search page, does it work?
What error are you getting?
Even though gboard is a google product and probably sends a ton of data, the autocorrect has never been an issue for me personally. I can type much faster because it will always autocorrect to what I intend.
he's being sarcastic (im pretty sure)
Yeah I couldn't afford to keep that instance running
hello this is my test comment from now on.
-
markdown test, but it's gonna be multiple lines. this is to see how well photon will handle multi-line stuff like this
-
this is another test
immutable objects, i like functional programming
i hate this programming pattern with a passion.
Photon Announces Revamped Design
We're thrilled to unveil a significant redesign of Photon, the user interface for the fediverse! Since its inception, Photon has strived to make the fediverse more accessible with a user-friendly design.
Mono-Light addresses a key request from our community: increased information density. This redesign allows you to view more content at a glance, streamlining your fediverse experience.
Here's a glance at our new design:
As you can see, every UI element has been streamlined while still remaining beautiful. You can see so much more at once, with no sacrifice to usability. Got fat fingers? just cut a bit of it off.
You can expect this new design to roll out by the end of today, April 1st.
...
No offense to the mlmym devs. Photon users want a clean UI, while mlmym users want an information dense, old reddit like UI.
I don't really like Nord themes so I won't personally use this but here you go:
{"other":{},"primary":{"100":"#8fbcbb","900":"#5e81ac"},"zinc":{"50":"#eceff4","100":"#e5e9f0","200":"#d8dee9","400":"#d8dee9","500":"#e5e9f0","700":"#4f586a","800":"#4c566a","900":"#434c5e","925":"#3b4252","950":"#2e3440"},"slate":{"25":"#eceff4","50":"#e5e9f0","100":"#d8dee9","200":"#d8dee9"}}
v1.28.0
- Add custom theme support
- Access from the settings page or clicking "Color scheme" in main menu
- Instance themes are coming later
- add pasting images directly into comments
- fix sidebar collapsing stuff
Try a theme
To import/make a theme, go to settings > theming. You can also click "color scheme" in the main menu.
I made a catppuccin theme for photon. Import this:
{"zinc":{"50":"#cdd6f4","100":"#bac2de","200":"#a6adc8","300":"#9399b2","400":"#7f849c","500":"#6c7086","600":"#585b70","700":"#45475a","800":"#313244","900":"#1e1e2e","925":"#181825","950":"#11111b"},"primary":{"100":"#a6e3a1","900":"#7287fd"},"other":{"white":"#ffffff"},"slate":{}}
and voila! This theme only changes dark mode colors right now.
This theme only works in dark theme for now
Theme (importable in Photon v1.28.0+)
{"zinc":{"50":"#cdd6f4","100":"#bac2de","200":"#a6adc8","300":"#9399b2","400":"#7f849c","500":"#6c7086","600":"#585b70","700":"#45475a","800":"#313244","900":"#1e1e2e","925":"#181825","950":"#11111b"},"primary":{"100":"#a6e3a1","900":"#7287fd"},"other":{"white":"#ffffff"},"slate":{}}

The Photon community has moved from lemmy.xylight.dev to lemdro.id, because it's getting difficult to have to keep my old instance online.
All updates and questions should go here from now on!
I have a few questions, please comment if you match all of most of these:
-
Do you use an RX 6000 series GPU?
-
Do you experience random freezes when playing games?
-
Are those freezes a "page fault"? (Use journalctl to check)
-
Do these issues occur in OpenGL games?
-
Are the page faults a GCVM_PROTECTION_FAULT?
-
What mesa version do you use?
-
What Linux distro do you use?
I've been having frequent freezes and it renders my operating system nearly unusable. I have to restart my computer to recover, and I lose all of my unsaved work.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? Do you use an RX 6000 card on Linux but have not had this issue?

Less hostile when in context.
