Hi everyone! This week’s dev build contains a feature I’d been planning to add for ages: the possibility to restore contents (posts and comments) you have deleted previously.

There are also several features you requested (and I’m very happy to receive your advice), e.g. the possibility to add/remove favorites directly from the navigation drawer, enhanced community list in drawer with sorting, add the “edit” option in the card swipe actions, configurable inbox preview length and so on.

Finally there are quite a few fixes for markdown rendering, one of them with the help of NicKoehler. Thanks to those who helped either with code contributions or with your bug reports (which made it easier to found the issues).

Hope you like it and have a nice weekend as always! p.s. Next week I will be off so don’t worry if I am not reactive as usual.

    … don’t know if it’s just me, but getting to the lowest part in instances list in ‘Change instance’ welcome screen is not working as it suppose to. Switching instances order works well but going to the bottom of the list, is odd

      Ahah ok I understood what you mean… I’ll add an issue for it but since this week I’m off I don’t think I’ll be able to work on it before Friday.

        Possible solutions:

        • make only the ⋮ button draggable
        • use the long press gesture to start scrolling
        • or allow reordering only on long press, scroll as usual

    … and also add moderator badge. In raccoon there is only OP showing, through browser 2 of them OP and M. Also in app OP only shows in comments but not post body.

      Nice idea, in Raccoon there is only a badge for moderator-approved comments (aka “distinguished comments” in Lemmy lingo), but nothing to show simply whether the author of the comment is a moderator.

    … can you fix a small bug with preserving collapsed messages on refresh/reload. It’s somehow irritating, especially when trying to go back to ‘uncollapsed messages’ after reaching the end of post. Reload opens all of them again.

    One more enhancement, would it be possible to highlight result of search query. Especially useful when more that one comment is found.

        can you take a look at this whole post in web browser, especially my comments: in comment with screenshots raccoon displays only one of two images; and in the other comment with “possible solutions” (with bullets) quotation was cut in half in raccoon, something is off

          We actually addressed and/or fixed a lot of those issues recently 🙂

          I just built Raccoon from the latest source code, and there are only 2 issues I see in these comments now:

          • The list in this comment is not displaying correctly
          • The gif you embedded above is stretching to fill the entire width of the post [1]

          Both will probably involve some markdown adjustments, which is probably going to take a little while…

          But I’m already in the middle of messing with superscript and subscript, so maybe I’ll give these a shot sometime soon.

          [1] I just looked at the code, and this is actually by design and not technically a bug. Also, I’ve been typing this on my laptop, and the markdown is sometimes funky even on the actual lemm.ee website. How fun!

      That would be more difficult than it seems, this is why I never did it until now. 😓
