Hi Lemmy! I've just uploaded a new beta version that adds support for Lemmy 0.19.4 features, this is the changelog:

  • Hide posts: Individual posts can be hidden now. There is Show hidden toggle on the toolbar menu (Lemmy 0.19.4)
  • View previously uploaded images on your profile page, Uploads tab (Lemmy 0.19.4)
  • Add custom thumbnail when creating a link post (Lemmy 0.19.4)
  • Show mod/admin indicators next to usernames in posts and comments
  • Fixed mark as read on scroll not working on some instances
  • Bug fixes and improvements

Thanks for everything you do!

One thing that's been coming up is that Boost doesn't seem to support certain markdown tags. For example, I'm pretty sure the Spoiler tag is a known issue.

The lemmy.world admins have enabled a bias checker bot for /c/news, /c/politics, and /c/world but we're finding, in Boost, the bot posts appear fully expanded:

Compared to other apps that compress it down with a "click here to expand" arrow (Jerboa in this case).

I guess the GOOD news is that, in a head to head comparison, only THREE Lemmy apps fully supported everything, so Boost is in good company.

Comparison here:

I think spoiler tag support is the most important thing missing from Boost. @[email protected] please fix this

This is ready for the next version

Yay! Thanks for the hard work!

Popping in here to say please, please add this!

It's very jarring, in general.

Also I just started a community which relies heavily on spoiler tags, but I can't actually use them.

Thanks for the hard work!
