Is user export broken for anyone else? It exports malformed JSON ending at 121 bytes.

I've tested multiple accounts + browsers. Only happens on lemmy.world.

Hi there! I've received a few requests, so I've created a Patreon page for Voyager.

This adds an additional option, alongside Github Sponsors, Liberapay and in-app donations.

Thanks again to everyone that supports Voyager! 💙

While I have you here, let me show off a few of the new features from the release earlier today!

Random Community Button

Find new communities, randomly! Pull to refresh to find a new random one with ease.

Launch native app if available

Currently, if you tap a Youtube link, it will open Youtube in the in-app browser. (And same with news apps, etc.) Now, by default, it will open the app, if installed.

You can easily flip this off in Settings to get the old behavior ("Prefer Opening Native Apps").

Shortcut to copy text

If you want to copy all post/comment text, there is now a handy copy icon in the header of the sheet!

Android navbar style updates

I've tweaked Android navbar styles to make them a little nicer.

My username is now purple, so you can easily identify me as the Voyager dev

iOS Cache Clearing

You can now clear iOS cache for Voyager (native app only). Please note: It will not clear everything - iOS seems to keep 100mb around, without a way to clear. Other apps I checked seem to have the same issue.

Comments theme

You can now style the comments theme!

I recommend updating if you get frustrated by broken videos.

This goes for all iOS Lemmy clients, not just Voyager :)

Record breaking temperatures today. 70F

Voyager has finally added support for spoilers! This was the 9th issue reported in Voyager's Github project, back in June last year. (Since then, Voyager users have created nearly 600 issues with around 500 being resolved!)

It was a huge undertaking, involving a few different packages and nearly one hundred unit tests in order to ensure proper parsing logic.

Also, I've published Voyager's spoiler plugin with AGPL-3.0, so any other FOSS lemmy app using Remark for markdown parsing can more easily add spoiler support :)

So, now Voyager should properly parse spoilers, check it out below! Shortly, I will add support in the Markdown toolbar so you can easily create your own.

(by the way - this release also adds support for horizontal rules. Voyager should now support all of the official Markdown syntax.)

Formatting

The Lemmy spoiler format is based on the CommonMark Container Block Directive proposal. In fact, the spoiler plugin was forked from remark's directive plugin (this plugin is not flexible enough to be compatible with markdown-it-directive, what lemmy-ui is using, without forking). Their behavior is very similar to Markdown code blocks. Here's the "happy path" syntax (but there's edge cases that behave similar to edge cases of markdown code blocks):

Hi there!

Some examples

Below are some examples stress testing the spoiler parsing.

This spoiler is nested within the "Hi there!" spoiler. I don't know why you'd want to nest spoilers... But you can 😆

Spoiler in a quote with implicit closing fence

You can quote spoilers. 🤔 idk why you'd want to but you can.
