The current version of Photon uses the inline reply style, so this is fixed

TranscriptionAn American Humane Certified Safety Representative visited the Snow Buddies set on the first day of filming. Fifteen Golden Retriever puppies were on set and fifteen other were being treated by a local veterinarian, and their illnesses were eventually diagnosed as Giardia and Coccidia. On request from the representative the remaining puppies on set received additional veterinary checks. Twenty-five of the puppies were from an American breeder and five were from a Canadian breeder. It was discovered that the puppies were approximately 8 weeks old, which lead to the belief that the puppies were only 6 weeks old when they were brought by the trainer to the movie set. Per the USDA it was at the time illegal to transport puppies under the age of 8 weeks.

After the removal of all 30 puppies, 28 older Golden Retriever puppies were brought in to continue filming. All of the 28 older puppies were exposed to parvovirus. Five of the puppies died, and up to six others fell ill after exposure to the virus.

As a result, the film was not permitted to use the "No animals were harmed..." disclaimer and received an "Unacceptable" marking from the American Humane Association.

I am currently working on alpha PieFed support for Photon.

The PieFed API is missing a lot of features from native PieFed, so not all functionality you'd expect will work (notably, the inbox.) I can't do anything about this until those features are added to the API.

The way I'm writing this will also allow Mastodon support in the future.

Status

I've already implemented basically the entire AVAILABLE PieFed API. You can try a beta here.

You can view my progress at via the pull request on GitHub.

LLMs are such an amazing technology, but they are used and understood completely wrong by the corporate world.

People are growing dependent on it which is a problem, but the transformer model is really cool imo.

The way ActivityPub federation works, once an instance is "linked" (like lemm.ee linking with lemmy.world, lemdro.id, etc), the instance will now send them an event once a post is made or something like that.

For example:

  • lemm.ee ---links--> lemmy.world
  • lemm.ee user makes a post A
  • lemm.ee ---notifies--> lemmy.world
  • lemmy.world makes a copy of post A.

So yes, every Lemmy instance stores copies of new data from other instances once they link.

 
 

It's been on a separate URL for a while now but it is now on phtn.app.

It hasn't been merged to main yet and has not been put as stable release, but i believe it is stable enough to bring to my URL.

Once the stable release is out, I will write release notes. This is the svelte 5 version.

 

You have become the very thing you swore to destroy

 

So the overall layout won't change, and if you're using default navigation settings, you'll barely notice any difference.

Instances using Photon with SSR have rightfully complained that there's a layout shift between server load and hydration. This happens because the current navbar's position isn't determined by CSS, but by calculations in JavaScript. This is pretty messy and bad.

I rewrote it to be CSS based so that this shift won't happen, and it also simplifies the code quite a lot. However, there's one downside, you won't be able to manually customize the position: the navbar will be a top panel on desktop, and a bottom dock on mobile.

One new feature in this is that on mobile, the bottom dock will hide when you scroll down and re-appear when you scroll up at all. You can disable that in settings.

I consider Photon an opinionated client (of my opinion), but I also want to make sure this isn't a dealbreaker for anyone.

I use Lemmy for bigger news and all that, but sometimes I like to showcase little things I've done in Photon or tweaked. Maybe even hold polls there.

Should I post mini updates there? Lemmy will still be reserved for the big ones.

The Svelte 5 migration has progressed enough that I think it's safe to release betas now.

Docker tags are released for 2.0.0-beta.2, and you can access the latest beta yourself at https://svelte-5.photon-8na.pages.dev/.

I've made a few UX changes to match the new codebase, I hope that this release is good for you.

Please let me know of any major issues.

Issues I've noticed (I will fix as soon as I am available:

  • Post mutations don't save when you navigate, when you go back, they are reverted.

Approximately 70% complete

Photon uses Svelte.js as the main JS framework for the UI. Photon uses Svelte 4 currently, but Svelte 5 was released and has a lot of benefits for the codebase. It's also a lot faster.

However, the paradigm for Svelte 5 is a lot different and almost the entirety of Photon might have to be rewritten.

Luckily, there's a migration tool that can do a lot of the work for me. However, I've still got to fix about 3,000 lines of code and 70 different files to work properly with Svelte 5. There's also gonna be a lot of hidden bugs I'll need to fix.

Because of this, I won't work on any new features for the next month or so, so that I can get this as done as fast as possible.

Generally you won't notice much other than slight behavior changes due to minor code structure changes, or maybe a bug or two.

Once I'm finished, I'll make another announcement and you might notice photon feeling a bit faster!

Once it's been confirmed stable I'll release docker images.

Other notes

Browser support drops

Very old browsers probably might break. I'm talking Internet Explorer (although I'm pretty sure that was already broken. I don't care if Photon doesn't work on IE.)

 

I usually don't like orange/brown themes but I think this one's cozy. I decided to make it for the autumn season.
