What does Boost have over clients like Voyager?
That’s because SSR is enabled. And photon doesn’t have access to the Lemmy database completely, so it can’t figure out what account you’re using until the client fully loads Photon. So what’s happening is this:
Server: loads posts with default settings
client starts loading…
Client: takes over server and loads posts client side using the users settings.
This will lead to different posts depending on what sort you use, what location, and if it differs from the server.
How about this:
Completely custom pins
The frontpage is accessible at the logo on the navbar?
Well links are supposed to be just !community@instance.url, but for some reason people keep making it an actual markdown link which is not what you’re supposed to do. It’s like Reddit’s r/community. You dont need a markdown link.
It’s how you’re supposed to make links. I’ve tried a lot to fix people’s messed up links for them in photon, but it ends up breaking other stuff
The issue is that it’s a decently rare action and shouldn’t be near sorting, which is used very frequently.
Ah, just feeds of comments? I guess I could do that. I don’t know how I’ll make it interface well though.

Defenestrated is the best way to say removed Windows and I’m using that forever, thanks

Thanks, I’ll check it out
Piped is actually not a great platform for this because their embeds load the entire site
Photon can make requests through http, but it has to be manually specified (PUBLIC_INSTANCE_URL=http://discuss.tchns.de
)
Communities > Location > Subscribed. I’ll add easier access on mobile soon.
I regularly search for the term “photon” because I’ve found lots of people mentioning bugs and the sort outside the photon community.
phtn.app is the official one and will receive all updates instantly, so it might actually be more secure.
That will also get the post url from the home instance itself which is needed to federate posts.
Ads for a platform with political views that despise them. Ironic
