Voyager for Lemmy
getvoyager.app
Voyager is a beautiful mobile web client for Lemmy. Enjoy a seamless experience browsing the fediverse.

Hey there!

I just published Voyager’s new promo site at https://getvoyager.app/. This site is intended to be an easy way to share the app with your friends and family. Let me know what you think! I’m hoping to roll out a couple more improvements to user onboarding soon™️, so stay tuned.

In other news, I hope you like the latest app update! ICYMI: the video player was significantly revamped, you can now upload videos (assuming lemmy instance support: keep reading…), and Android users can now long press links to preview the url, as well as for share/copy/open options.

https://github.com/aeharding/voyager/releases/tag/2.26.0

Speaking of videos: If you’ve ever wondered why videos sometimes fail to play in iOS, it’s because many Lemmy instances are misconfigured. Please share this site I just published with your Lemmy admin to help debug issues: https://aeharding.github.io/lemmy-streaming Around 50% of instances are misconfigured 😳 so I really appreciate your help on getting the word out to admins! 🫡

    Turns out cloudflare was responsible for breaking the 206 range requests for lemmy.ca, and probably quite a few of these other broken sites too.

    Here’s how to fix with a caching rule:

    Nice! This is great.

    Having the screencaps on a shareable page is far better than me trying to explain what Lemmy is or how it functions.

    Thanks for that site for testing configuration for streaming video! Lemmy.NZ was failing but is fixed now.

    In our case it was Cloudflare, I configured it to bypass the cache and it’s resolved. Kinda defeats half the purpose of Cloudflare though haha so I will probably adjust it to do images but not video or something like that.

      Awesome, thanks so much for checking!

      Regarding cloudflare, I know the lemmy.zip admin (@Demigodrick@lemmy.zip was somehow able to get it working with caching, but I’m not sure how. I know the lemmy.world admins were having issues with it though and haven’t been able to work around it yet. LMK if you do figure it out!

      I pasted a specific screenshot elsewhere in this thread showing how to filter on just requests with a range header

    I see gestures as one of the promoted features on that site. Is there a way to use gestures for navigation instead of actions? That is the one feature keeping me from Voyager. I want to be able to swipe to go back, etc., not swipe to upvote, etc.

      Should be… Although, I believe on Android + system 3 button nav + android specific voyager theme, it doesn’t have navigation swipes. the iOS theme should. There might be a way to get it working, I’d have to check

    curl -I https://swg-empire.de/pictrs/image/c6d5a936-1566-4154-947d-8926fbe07fe5.jpeg

    Hmm, my pictrs doesn’t seem to like HEAD requests. From what I can see every service is configured correctly. Apache is forwarding it correctly to Nginx and Nginx is using the latest configuration from ansible.

    But my pictrs does support ranges so I guess everything is ok.
