Welcome to the last major release of the year. I will be taking a break from all software development until next year.

This release brings some more user requested features and general improvements to the app.

This was supposed to be the release that added local event tracking but I didn't end up having enough time to finish it. So instead of holding up the release I am releasing with local event tracking turned off. There will be more information about this once local tracking is ready. tl;dr is a lot of user requested features require local event tracking.

Full changelog

  • Add new FAB quick action - refresh posts.
  • Add listing type search filters (eg. filter by local, moderator view, subscribed).
  • Add feature to scroll post feed with volume rocker. Can be enabled in settings (Post feed). Default off.
  • Add setting to turn off saving recent communities.
  • Switch to use a different default user agent so the Summit client doesn't look like a bot. This should fix network issues. If you encounter any new network errors after the release, please ping me!
  • Improve performance of hide read by using API to hide some read posts.

Update

I made a mistake and didn't switch to using the new user-agent everywhere. Will fix this in a patch release (v1.74.1).

  • Use the new user-agent everywhere.

Getting missing images on a lot of posts, which show up fine on my normal instance in a browser (posting on an alt because I normally block lemmy.world)

getPixels failed with error invalid input

App otherwise still working great! Enjoy your break

Can you check Settings > Misc > Client user-agent and make sure " Let the app decide" is selected? If that is selected and you are still getting errors can you try playing around with that setting? If you find a certain setting works please let me know which one so I can figure out a better user agent to use. Thank you.

I tried all the different user-agents, but unfortunately none worked. FWIW, although all images load on my browser on my main instance (lemmy.zip), and many fail in the app, switching to this lemmy.world account caused the image from the same post to load in the app without issue (using the flutter user-agent)
