> Hey there! > > I just published Voyager's new promo site at https://getvoyager.app/. This site is intended to be an easy way to share the app with your friends and family. Let me know what you think! I'm hoping to roll out a couple more improvements to user onboarding soon™️, so stay tuned. > > In other news, I hope you like the latest app update! ICYMI: the video player was significantly revamped, you can now upload videos (assuming lemmy instance support: keep reading...), and Android users can now long press links to preview the url, as well as for share/copy/open options. > > https://github.com/aeharding/voyager/releases/tag/2.26.0 > > Speaking of videos: If you've ever wondered why videos sometimes fail to play in iOS, it's because many Lemmy instances are misconfigured. Please share this site I just published with your Lemmy admin to help debug issues: https://aeharding.github.io/lemmy-streaming Around 50% of instances are misconfigured 😳 so I really appreciate your help on getting the word out to admins! 🫡

> The focus of this release is to add support for importing/exporting tables from the database of the app. > > A lot of preferences/data, especially those that allow you to add to a list, are built on top of tables. Tables allows the app to scale better when lists can grow very long. Some features that use tables include drafts and bookmarked communities. > > Currently while the app allows users to import/export settings, the app does not give the user any way to import/export anything backed by tables. This means not everything can be carried over by importing/exporting settings. > > This release aims to give users a way to preview the database within the app and export them and import them with a high level of configurability. > > This feature is a prerequisite of a larger feature which will be announced later. > > Full changelog > - Add support to import/export app data that is stored in tables. > - Improve performance of "mark posts as read on scroll". > - Improve general scroll performance on the post feed screen. > - Updated community search result to show the full community name with instance. > - Remove malformed markdown fix which tried to correct malformed headlines by inserting a space between '#' and text if there wasn't one. > - Change open instance behavior. If the instance opened does not match the current account, the guest account is used automatically. This is to prevent the app from getting into a weird state. > - Fix a bug where links do not open correctly if the default browser app is Firefox. > - Fix a bug where the post feed header does not update when switching instances. > - Fix a bug where rate limit errors are not recognized correctly. > - Fix a bug where "mark posts as read on scroll" doesn't mark a post as read if the height of the post is taller than the screen. > - Fix a bug where the thumbnail shown in the "Save for later" bottom sheet do not update when a new image is chosen to replace an older one. > > Update > > Some more bug fixes to come: > - Fix a bug where the thumbnail shown in the "Save for later" bottom sheet do not update when a new image is chosen to replace an older one. > - Improve general scroll performance on the post feed screen. > > Update 2 > > Releasing the changes in the last update as v1.58.1. > > Update 3 > > Conducting some user-agent testing. Releasing as v1.58.2. > - Add setting to change the app's user-agent. > > Update 4 > > More fixes incoming: > - Fix a bug in full post layouts where blurred NSFW images are sometimes not shown. > - Fix a bug in full post layouts where NSFW posts can cause content to jump as they are loaded in. > - Fix a bug where blurred NSFW images are not shown for videos. > - Fix a bug where "Prefer full size image" for certain layouts was not respected and was always on. > - Fix a bug where posts in the post feed would jump around if "Prefer full size image" was on. > - Fix a bug where some posts do not have a "preview" button when using the list style layouts. > - Fix card shadow being clipped on user info screen. > - More optimizations in the post feed/post screen. > > Update 5 > > Releasing new changes as v1.58.3 > > Update 6 > > Big update here which should both improve performance and also lessen the effects of rate limiting issues. These changes will be released as v1.58.4. > - Optimized network calls in the critical sections of the app.
