I don't know exactly what cadence you'd call this, but all the point releases that are divisible by 10 are basically "cleanup releases".

I usually try not to introduce anything new in these and rather focus on debugging, refactoring, and streamlining all the changes for the previous 9 releases.

So, don't expect anything groundbreaking from the next version.

That said, I am asking for feedback on things; what can be improved (without adding anything new), what's buggy, etc.

So far in 1.4.40, I've done the following. In addition to these, are there any particular areas that could be improved?

Bugfixes:

  • Don't add comment text to conversation line button tooltip if comment is hidden.
  • Check if comment_view.comment.content is undefined before setting the comment text value to it. Only shows up in console log as an error, so it's non-breaking, but it's still annoying
  • Fixed the gap where the moderation button would be in the post action toolbar if user is not a mod.
  • Fixed "Hide Deleted Posts" filter. It's a holdover from the 0.18.x days and recently, you can only see your own deleted posts. The filter was hitting the safety check to not hide your own content before this rule fired, so there's now an exception above the "post is from self" check.

Filtering:

  • Add ability to filter NSFW posts (works in addition to NSFW blur)
  • Add ability to filter posts from bot accounts (without blocking them entirely)

Enhancements:

  • When collapsing a comment thread via the conversation line, if the topmost comment in the thread is outside the viewport, scroll it into view.

Ideas I've got:

  1. Option to completely hide filtered posts/comments rather than showing placeholders.
  2. The search page needs to have the search options moved into the main page and out of the subnavbar like was recently done with the modlog
  3. The "Search for Alts" function in the user profile modal and registration application screen should work inside a modal since it would be helpful to not leave the current location to perform that lookup

Thoughts on those? Not sure if I'd be able to do all of them in this release (the search page is going to be quite a bit of work), so feedback on which to prioritize would be helpful in addition to any other suggestions.

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.
