Which app is this screenshot from?

Wow this is a HUGE update. Amazing work!

Wanted to point out a few more things I've noticed

  • I've noticed that some settings don't persist after Connect is updated. I'm not sure if that's because the settings pane changes with new options hence it can't be persisted but just something I noticed
  • It would be nice to have a drafts section for comments and posts such that you can temporarily save it and come back to editing it and finishing it up.
  • It would be awesome to see a preview of either the post or comment that you are replying to with the username there as we so you have reference as to what you are replying to.
  • When you tap to bring up the menu to interact with comments, maybe a setting to squish the icons to either the right or left would be nice to have for those who are browsing with one hand
  • It would also be nice to have an indicator of how many Unread messages you have in your inbox beside the word Inbox in the menu and possibly even on the hamburger menu itself to alert you to look into the menu
  • In the About Instance page, I've noticed that the total subscribers count doesn't show, but it does in the About Community page.
  • When you tap on the About Instance menu, it takes you to a new window context as expected to show you the necessary details and when you navigate back, it takes you back to where you were as expected. However, in the About Community page, it seems to be more of an overlay in the same context such that if you do navigate back, it takes you completely out of the post that you were viewing when you had clicked About Community.
  • In the About Instance and About Community pages, would be nice to have an Open context menu to open it up externally on a web browser as well. I think it's only there in About Community at the moment.
  • Would you be able to allow to search for Communities that may not exist in the Instance search using the full address (!lemmyconnect@lemmy.ca) like we can on the Lemmy web app
 

Hey all!

I'm fairly new to Home Assistant and have just created a few dashboards to be able to view my router statistics and be able to restart them via REST if need be. Love being able to do this seamlessly from one place.

It got me thinking however, that I can only really access the dashboard when I'm on my internal network. I know that there is a paid Home Assistant cloud that would enable me to view my dashboards and such publicly and securely, but I was wondering if this community has set it up themselves for free and securely.

Would anyone be able to guide me in the right direction?

If only Linux had an official Xbox and Game Pass app so that I could play my Xbox games on it natively without having to stream it from a webpage :(

The Web app is really good! The only issue I have with it since it got updated to 0.18 is that when you click a post link and press back to go to your community, it reloads the entire community and takes your scroll position all the way to the top. It's really killed the experience on mobile for me and it didn't do that prior to 0.18 I found.

Anyone else having the same issue?

I'm having the same issue as well. Might have to use the webapp for now until they fix the bugs.

Is there an equivalent community on lemmy for the ROGAlly yet?

It's shaping up to be a very cool platform and I hope with time it gets bigger than Reddit. I find the UX to be a bit clunky and not visually appealing at the moment and also the way communities work are a little confusing. Because of federation, you can have duplicate community groups and that can make content a bit segregated.
