• On v1.0.2, a new feature was added. It's an addition to the old "resolve posts to home instance."
• Post links will now automatically convert to Photon links, do you aren't taken out of Photon. If the post is on a different instance, you get the option to fetch the post on your home instance.

How to implement

(For devs)

To implement fetching posts on your home instance, call the /resolve_object endpoint, with q as the post's ap_id. It will return the post in the response.

Photon is the first client to have feature parity with lemmy-ui (as far as I know).

You got all the common stuff like:

• Mod tools
• Admin tools
• Resolve external objects
• Purge items
• etc...

As additions, there is:

• Multi account system
• Community and modded community sidebar
  • You can also quickly switch accounts here!
• Powerful mod tools
  • Quickly private message a user for why their submission is removed. Customizable template!
  • Easily manage your mod team. Don't hunt for one of their posts, just type their handle!
• Resolve external posts to your home instance
• Automatic posts drafts

• Photon now has full feature parity! (I think)

Enjoy.

I think Photon is the first third party client to implement the modlog.

You can access it from the site about sidebar/window, like the normal lemmy-ui. Or just go to /modlog.

It has feature parity with the lemmy-ui modlog.

Crossposts were also added recently.

Also fixed the infamous profile page switching issue.

I personally am fine with this.

(only recently federated so sorry if this has been asked billions of times)

What's the best RSS reader for android?

My criteria are:

• Material 3 design
• FOSS

UPDATE: Lemmy v0.19.0 fixes this issue.

A lot of people are having issues with image uploads.

TL;DR, this is an unfixable Photon issue caused by a Lemmy issue

Right now Photon does authenticated requests by sending an authentication header with the jwt of your account. This works for most stuff, except image uploads. Image uploads require a cookie, which can't really be done client side.

As a workaround, Photon will proxy your image upload to the photon server. (nothing is tracked, you can see at hooks.server.ts) However, this means all requests come from the same IP- which can cause rate limits

It is caused by This GitHub issue

You can now re-order profiles from the accounts page. Click the profile icon to change the color.

Since v0.9.8, here's what was added:

• As mentioned, Profile re-ordering and re-coloring
• Mark individual posts as read
• Click your active account to switch to guest.
• A lot of UI tweaks for consistency

Thanks for all the support of Photon!
