I think the reasoning was that there was a race condition between the code causing the bluescreen and the code updating to avoid the bluescreen so rebooting 15 times would give a lot of opportunities for the updater to win the race.

There are still more restrictions however on spending on other candidates and they would have to act like any other PAC, only helping via donating/running ads in support of (but importantly not directly by) any other candidate.

The money Biden has raised directly however can only go to the people that were on his ticket at the time the donation was made

That’s the part of the code that seems strange??

While I definitely agree, lemmy instances hosted by generous members of the community aren’t necessarily ran by people who deal with this stuff day to day and cutting them some slack is extremely fair imo

Yeah, I think I just handle the login differently so Lemmios will log out much quicker if there is an error, tell me if there are any more bugs though, I'll try my best to fix them!

Ok fixed! Will be pushed to testflight and then the app store when apple review finishes, I'll update as that process happens. Sorry for the bugs lol

EDIT: Published on both!

Yeah it’s due to the 0.19 beta update, will work on fixing this (should be quick) later tonight

[–] mrlavallee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Huh, could you send me a video of this behavior? It seems to be working fine for me. Just to make sure, where is this happening?

 

Almost all stuttering during scroll has been removed!

For those who want to know the technical reasons, all the caching was happening on the same thread that was handling the scrolling, but moving it to a background thread makes it feel much better!

[–] mrlavallee 1 points 1 year ago

Hmm, from what I have seen there is no way inside the Lemmy API to do this (would love details if this has been added) and I have been told by Lemmy developers to not try this until then since for large community groups it would severely impact server performance. I'll ping @[email protected] just in case they want to help

Also, as the developer of Lemmios, it is somewhat negligence on my part (not saying this is true for any of the other app developers, just me), we all google when we code and generally the newer features make things much easier so it is really hard to google older features since they are harder to implement and get quite buried. I also think for me at least my apps start as passion projects I don't really expect anyone to use so I forget that iOS versions under my current one exist lol, it's a lot easier to start on 16.0 and stay on 16.0 forever than go lower after the project has started, sorry.

Hey, Lemmios developer here, what do you mean by cutting off images? It’s a known bug (I’m not sure that’s the right word because it’s working as intended just looks odd when people embed images in the body of a post) that Lemmios will only show the begging of a text post in the main feed, but once a post is clicked on there shouldn’t be any cut off images? The image loads fine for me and I would love a screenshot of it getting cut off if you can?

 

It also has the ability to resolve reports so there is less reason to leave the app than ever! Notifications for reports is coming next!

Also, the amount of swiping needed to start the upvote/downvote gesture is much higher (about halfway to the transition point), making scrolling a lot easier!

This update took a long time due to Apple's review taking forever, but I'm proud to say that the crash counts have significantly lowered in the beta, going from about 1 in 50 sessions to now generally 0 for every build! This also adds crossposting and many UI improvements!

I hope everyone enjoys!

Due to many people asking we now have T-shirts if you want to rock your Lemmios usage out around the world! Also just a very cool logo for people who don’t know it! Anyone buying this would be very appreciated!

EDIT: for those in the EU we have an alternate storefront

 

Due to demand, I have submitted the designs to Cotton Bureau (the company Apollo used) so once it gets approved everyone will be able to order shirts!

 

Continuing on the train of adding moderation features, the two newest additions are the modlog:

And comment nuking (hard to put in a picture but will remove comment and all replies to it)

I hope everyone enjoys!

So let me start this by thanking so many people for using Lemmios! But more people does come with some issues, I currently have 126 users on lemmy.world that have notifications enabled, which means enough requests that I am starting to hit their rate limits and a solution needs to be found. I have identified a few options:

  • Start requiring a cost for notifications in order to limit users (instructions to self-host server for no cost will be available)
  • Make notifications have a significant delay (definitely don't want this)
  • Offer to lemmy.world devs to pay for a higher rate limit just for the Lemmios servers (definitely ideal but Lemmios hasn't made any money yet and I'm a highschooler with very limited funds lol, I'll drop a donation link just in case anyone is feeling insanely generous)

What does everyone here think is the best option?

 

Lemmios can link to communities via search while typing!

What it looks like to select:

The output:

 

There are currently 3 icons that just change the background, but if anyone wants to submit suggestions (or even icons would be amazing) we can start adding more!

From any post or comment in a community you moderate, you can easily ban a user with an optional expiry date and the ability to remove all content from that user!
