Tesseract: An Advanced Lemmy Client

The goal of Tesseract is to address as many things in Lemmy that annoy me as I can. I also trawl various "is there any way to [blank] in Lemmy?" posts to get feature ideas. Both of those lists are pretty extensive, so Tesseract has accumulated quite a few features.

Github: https://github.com/asimons04/Tesseract/

Hosted / Demo Instance: https://tesseract.dubvee.org/

Note that the hosted instance defaults to Lemmy World, but it is unlocked to be able to connect to any Lemmy server.

Announcements, support, and guidance for the Tesseract UI.

All instance rules apply here. Beyond that, just be civil and constructive.

A couple of questions on Tesseract behaviour and UI (feddit.nl)

Hi All,

First of all, love this UI for Lemmy and the functionality it brings!
Thanks to all involved!

I have 3 questions regarding Tesseract and perhaps people here can help or explain things.

Is there a way to have the margins disabled in Card view?
Right now I always click that button “Disable margins” to achieve this.
Would be nice to not to have to do the same default action every time.
If I use the view “Wide compact” or “Reader” then the margins disappear automatically.
If the “Card” view would have this option (or generally this offered as an option for any view type) then that would be great.

Comments button does not open in a new tab, clicking on the link of post does open it in a new tab I have the option “Open Posts in New Tab” set to ‘on’.
My expectation would be that any click on a post would open that post in a new tab, comments button included.
Only votes buttons would not show this behaviour as that would not be the expected outcome I think.

When I am in a community (say c/tesseract@dubvee.org) and click the plus button to add a post, the community field is empty.
I would expect the community field to have “tesseract@dubvee.org” pre-filled.
You can search by typing in that field but it makes more sense to have it pre-filled if I am already inside a community.

Flickering of video player when partially shown

I noticed this behavior, the video player starts flickering when partially hidden. So whenever I scroll and that video player starts to get hidden, it detracts my attention due to that flickering. Nothing functionally wrong, just annoying 😀

Edit: gave up on posting mp4, mov, webm, gif, via imgur, etc. Gods, sharing media is horrible in Lemmy.

Why for (example) would this not work?

Imagine a webpage where 2/3 of a video player is visible and it flickers
