That’s because they linked photon.lemmy.world… this is why I was hesitant to allow instances to link photon to them.

Anyway, you can use https://phtn.app/ (the official URL, like vger.app) to use any instance.

I’ll need to implement something for multi API support once Lemmy 1.0 releases, and I could probably add basic mbin support there when that happens

It means that design choices and features I implement will follow what I believe to be optimal. I still try to consider what the users think, but the overall organization will prioritize my thought. It sounds narcissistic, but other software often follows this pattern.

It’s why Photon will rarely implement random features if I deem it to be something left to another tool, because my opinion is that it should remain simple unless the feature will significantly improve the user experience.

I removed it because I don’t want my app to necessarily depend or be associated with any specific centralized external source, like MBFC. By adding it to my app, I’m implicitly supporting its use, which wasn’t necessarily my goal.

It’s not securely sandboxed like a Qube, but apps can have their permission to access files and such restricted. Malware can escape the sandbox, or apps may come with very permissive permissions.

This must have changed recently since i remember having to add an explicit case to show just “Moderator”

The moderator is only given if the action was taken on your local instance

Photon doesn’t exactly have keyboard navigation, i’ve been working on it though

Irrelevant but the embed thumbnail terrifies me. why is the android fuzzy
