I have no specific data. But I consider polling in the background to be abuse, especially for a free service hosted by volunteers. Once lemmy implements actual push (which is scheduled soon!) I will implement.
Go to profile -> hidden posts -> reset
You should give the issue an upvote, right now it has zero upvotes. :)
As for why it isn’t merged in yet, is because it is a PR for a user submitted issue that hasn’t been fully triaged yet. For example, should avatars also be added to profile, autocomplete, post details, account selector etc, should avatars be animated, or frozen etc
I do need to revisit that PR and issue though, there have just been other priorities (again, upvote the issue if you want it)
You can’t currently. Voyager adopts Apollo’s DNA which is to focus on user content, rather than how cool your profile is. ;)
That being said, there will be a setting to enable at some point in the future. See: https://github.com/aeharding/voyager/issues/567

0·2 years agoThat’s weird. How much free space do you have on your device?
edit: Oh and iOS/Android version? And using native app or PWA?
It’s not currently a feature, but it would be pretty easy to add!
As always please open issues on GitHub otherwise I will forget.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Lemmy is a perfect reddit replacement in terms of saving a post "for later" and never coming back to itEnglish
0·2 years agoThe worst part is bookmarks are sorted by post creation date, not date bookmarked.
So if you bookmark something old, it’s gone in the bookmark chasm.

It’s planned via https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2631 once lemmy supports.
Without that, there’s two ways to do this with major drawbacks:
- Background tasks (android supported-ish with iOS support only with app open): Apps like Thunder are doing partial implementations by essentially polling the lemmy server in the background. I don’t think this is very neighborly because it puts a strain on Lemmy instances with the polling per account every 15 mins. It also consumes more battery. And is not consistent depending on Android device manufacturer.
- Storing JWTs on a server: Some apps do this, but this is a nonstarter for me due to security/liability reasons
So IDK. Right now I feel pressure to do this because other apps support but the ways they are accomplishing this are pretty questionable.

Thanks
I did a bit of research and it looks like in order to play videos with redgifs I’d have to apply for an api key.
Currently, Voyager (the app) never calls any endpoint that I own. There’s no phone home at all in Voyager unlike some other Lemmy apps. Adding redgif support would mean that Voyager would have to phone home to get a client token because thats how the redgifs api works.
Redgif also state in their api agreement that they have the right to start charging money for api access at any time.
You can probably see why I’m wary for adding support :)
Do you have a good example of a community with mostly redgifs?
For research purposes.
(But actually for research purposes lol)

Voyager@lemmy.world•Why are there hidden ads in Voyager?English
2·2 years agoThis is an iOS safari bug that really sucks with PWAs. I created a WebKit bug, but haven’t heard back ☹️ https://github.com/aeharding/voyager/issues/330
The native app is NOT affected by this bug so I recommend using that.
To be clear, I will never add ads to Voyager.
