I finally got around to testing out the new changes and submitting the build.

I will make a proper post once it is approved on Chrome and Firefox, but if you get the update before I get a chance then you can read below for the new changes:

Changes with v1.2.4:

  • search for communities through Lemmyverse.net or for posts through search-lemmy.com directly from the popup or sidebar
  • First feature pulled from LemmyTools! You now have the option to hide the Lemmy sidebar entirely (more LemmyTools features to come!)
  • Replaced non-functional ‘subscribe’ button on foreign /communities pages to make them useful (only when no account is signed in, so not to replace something functional)
  • Initial support for Alexandrite & Photon frontends. Test them here:
  • Fix for generated link on CommunityNotFound pages
  • Biggest change was behind the scenes: Completely refactored the code to move repetitive functions to a utils.js file. Should be a lot easier for people to collaborate and to maintain

Future Plans:

  • Exploring a ‘Reddit migrator’ tool, similar to the mobile tool in Voyager, powered by lemmyverse.net
  • Adding more features from LemmyTools Userscript, with help from /u/howdy@thesimplecorner.org
  • Prepping for Firefox Mobile app, now that they are opening mobile up to all extensions!
  • Keyboard hotkeys, possibly collaborating with someone that already implemented something similar
  • Adding icons and simplifying the design, as the menus are getting very wordy
    • settings to limit onboarding / help instructions
  • Ability to have multiple ‘home instances’
  • Finishing the setup so that people can contribute translations / other languages to the extension.
