Hi Lemmy! Boost 1.0.37 BETA is out 🎉 This release lets you explore other instances without an account there, brings polls, flairs and moderation tools to PieFed, and adds a new feed for moderators. This is the changelog:

Explore instances

• Browse a list of instances or type any domain to see what it is about, its local communities, posts and modlog without an account there
• Posts and communities open on your instance so you can vote, comment and subscribe
• Tap the instance of a community or profile to open it
• Communities show where else the same community exists on other instances, with their activity, and in Lemmy 1.0 you can combine them into one multicommunity

PieFed

• See polls and their results in the post, and vote with one or several answers
• Posts show their flairs with their colors, and you can choose them when posting or editing your post
• Gallery posts show their images and open in the gallery viewer, with an option to swipe through them in the post
• Follow feeds, the feeds you follow appear in your subscriptions, and get notified of new posts in feeds and topics
• Search comments, hide posts, sort posts by Old and sort communities by most subscribers, most posts or recently federated
• Add private notes to users, saved to your account
• Account settings can change your display name, bio, bot status and email notifications, and saving them keeps your avatar and banner untouched
• Mention suggestions while writing show the right people and communities and use much less data, with the people of the thread first
• The lists of feeds and topics and the feed details load faster and use much less data
• Instances that are not in the list now open correctly when you type their domain or follow a link

Moderation

• Moderators get a Moderating feed with the posts of the communities they moderate, next to All and Saved
• PieFed: Moderators get the moderation queue with its report count and notifications, and can change the flairs and NSFW status of posts
• See the moderation log of an instance, community or user on PieFed and Lemmy 0.19 too, and filter it by action
• The moderation log of another instance opens the right posts and users, and its entries are easier to tell apart

Votes

• Long press the vote buttons to see upvotes, downvotes and the upvote percentage
• Choose in account settings whether to show upvotes, downvotes and the upvote percentage
• A message tells you when a vote is not allowed by your server or a community

General

• The profile button in the bottom bar shows your avatar when you are logged in, with an option to turn it off in the Bottom navigation settings
• New option to show the score and comment count in the buttons row of the Cards view
• Account settings ask whether to save your changes when you leave without saving
• Toolbar buttons are easier to see over community and profile banners

Media and data usage

• Images uploaded to Lemmy 1.0 servers load at the right size, so posts use less data
• Comment avatars load faster and use less data
• Image posts from servers that proxy images open as images and can be downloaded
• Links to video files without a thumbnail, such as files.catbox.moe, show a frame of the video as preview

Fixes

• Links at the end of a sentence no longer include the final punctuation mark, so they open correctly
