Lot of new features since my last post!

alexandrite.app - !alexandrite@lemmy.world - Github

You can now pick between list (default), compact, and card layouts for posts in the feed. Use card if you want to see large images and a preview of the post content as you scroll (card is my favorite now).

Use compact if you want to see as many posts as possible.

The rest of these are things I’ve announced over at the Alexandrite community (!alexandrite@lemmy.world) but not here yet.

You can now create an account through Alexandrite.

Your instance/community/personal settings for discussion languages are now all taken into consideration, so if you ever saw a language_not_allowed error that should be fixed now. You can also set your discussion languages in the Lemmy tab of the settings (there still isn’t any interface language or localization support yet but I want to fix that at some point).

You can now self host Alexandrite, check the Github readme for details. It’s also on a.lemmy.world if you hadn’t heard already.

You can search in comments and next/prev through the results

Comments by community moderators will now have a “Mod” badge next to their name.

Mods can also chose to remove content or make a temporary ban from the ban dialog.
