I am the developer of the Photon client. Try it out

https://xylight.dev

Photon seems to have a semantic layout that firefox detects as settable into reader mode.

Hey, I'm the Photon dev. I'd like to know which parts Photon incorrectly displayed, so far I only see tables rendering incorrectly. I'll have this fixed soon.

Update: fixed table displays, pushed to main

Could this be updated now? 🥺 (you can test here)

I regret checking this

Why not?

Can't you just plug your phone straight in and transfer the file? I still prefer KDE connect though.

I don't really see many benefits of this since it seems to take the same space as a normal laptop

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?

The "wtf is this?" is settings, obviously.

Lemmy's "active" sort involves recent comments AFAIK, so if you're sorting by that you should see megathreads.

hello fellow client dev

lemmy.blahaj.zone admin is using photon? 😁

Wow, the new FCC law made comcast raise my generous 10Mbps upload to 25Mbps! It's $80/mo for this shit.

I wonder how high these kinds of posts spiked during the migration

I don't understand what this means. There are no redirect calls at all in photon other than for /comment urls, and certain layouts.

I contacted them about it.

Photon is available for any instance at https://phtn.app.

Alexandrite is available for any instance at https://alexandrite.app.

I don't like when instances will host photon for anything other than the default interface, as then it's just a more limited, outdated version of photon and another point of failure.

Photon has complete moderator capabilities, what's missing?

Same happens for me on gboard.

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

From what I've seen it's also 💀

Other instances have updated just fine, the most common issue being nginx header buffers being too low.

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

I dont know if youtube has h264 support

You have not seen some photon instances lol. lemdro.id's admins have been really busy, so I don't blame them for anything. they've also been early supporters from the start of photon.

Here's a list of ancient photon instances i've seen:

reddthat

lemy.lol (so old that it literally crashes on load)

programming.dev

lemmings.world

I really dislike when people host photon on their own stuff, and I prefer people use phtn.app. There's greater chance for error and old versions can give people a negative view of the client.

Hey, I'm the dev. I fixed this recently
