But it’s also true. This is the last release of wefwef. Tonight the app will be renamed, and all future releases will be Voyager!
Note: you don’t need to do anything if you have the app installed. The app will continue to be named ‘wefwef’ on your homescreen until you reinstall.
So what’s new for 0.17.0?
Block communities and users
It’s here! You can now block users and communities! Just go to their page and tap the ellipsis in the header. Additionally, there’s a new “Filters & Blocks” section to settings (applied per user)!
There’s also an option to hide all NSFW content for your account!
Finally, it’s now much easier to message users. Just tap on their profile and “Send Message”!
Favorite communities
Favorite communities for them to be at the top of the community quick switcher and your communities list. So much easier than scrolling to find the communities you frequent most often! Thanks @httpjamesm for this feature that’s been a long time coming.
To favorite (or unfavorite), just visit the community and tap the ellipse in the header.
Bugs and other small enhancements!
Thanks to everyone that has helped and contributed! Check out the github release for all the other stuff that was completed. https://github.com/aeharding/wefwef/releases/tag/0.17.0
Thanks, and see you on [email protected]!
Great release, finally I can curate my feed better. One thing is missing I didn’t realize before though, could you add the option to also filter whole instances?
This isn’t strictly necessary but for example the lemy.nl communities are extremely active to the point I see half a dozen posts from them in direct succession on the all feed and that’s good for them, but i don’t speak dutch. I have no use for articles and news discussion in dutch. And since it is a bit tedious filtering every community manually, being able to filter out whole instances would be very useful.
Sorry if you are annoyed by lemy.nl. The post frequency will be much lower from now on, since it needed to catch up with news from the past weeks.
However, if you select your preferred language in your profile settings, you should not see posts in other languages at all?
