It took me way too long to get around to this, but with the release of Lemmy 0.19.0 I finally added support for how auth is done differently now. Everything should work the same, but you'll now be able to use Alexandrite again on 0.19.0 servers.

There are some more features that 0.19.0 added, I'll be adding those later, just wanted to make sure things still work first!

If you're self hosting Alexandrite, the docker image probably won't be available for another hour or so after this is posted, the build takes a while! The main Alexandrite site is already updated though!

Just refreshed my container. Many thanks! I forget how awkward the native UI is.

Fantastic! Thanks for your work. I love the UI.

Sweet, thanks! I've been running https://a.lemmy.fan for quite awhile now and it's a beautiful UI.

I look forward to pulling the image down later this evening, as I just updated to 0.19.0.

It's a good night to be a Lemmy instance runner for once! :) (being sarcastic, sort of)

I've started blocking a few instances through the native UI, will those still appear on Alexandrite?

If it works like blocking works for users/communities, posts from blocked instances shouldn't show up in Alexandrite too.
