#columnly

Columnly may be of interest for some of you, as it seems to have great support for languages that are oriented right-to-left, as well as with vertical writing systems. https://columnly.social #columnly #Fediverse

I'm a designer, but sometimes I want to make adjustments for myself Meet https://columnly.social a Mastodon web client that supports many other software like Pixelfed, and allows you to quickly switch between accounts on the same server, or other servers + software. But like I said, I like to make adjustments, so I made it fully customizable, with the ability to design custom themes, select fonts, import and export your settings and much more. We even have an accessibility mode ✨ #Columnly

So when I added support for Loops to https://columnly.social I had to refactor quite a bit to abstract MastoAPI routes and entities properly. Not only did that open the door to supporting other software more properly, but also inspired me to look into ATProto support so you could combine all your social web accounts in one beautiful client. No promises, but I do look forward to implementing this when I have time! #Columnly #ActivityPub #ATProto

If you're using https://columnly.social and are a frontend developer who wants to help maintain it once it's open sourced later this month, please get in touch! I will gladly pass the torch to the community to maintain and expand this project, as it has clearly outgrown my own personal usage. Please boost and share with people you think may be interested ❤️ #Columnly

me either. #Columnly https://columnly.social ✨

Ok, so Columnly is amazing. Great job, @dansup@mastodon.social! Any idea when we can expect WAFRN compatiblity? It tries to pull the oAuth page, which doesn't appear to exist. #Columnly #get-it #great-work

hi @dansup@mastodon.social hope you're doing fine i might have found a minor bug relating to #markdown formatting for headings font, when created in the composer with the # insert text here for H1 heading method that should have produced enlarged H1 font in the post, & when viewed in Masto, Phanpy, Statuzer, it is. however in #Columnly itself, though the post-preview seems ok [albeit still a bit small], once actually posted Columnly ignores that formatting altogether afaict. to see what i mean... https://infosec.space/@MsDropbear42/117567470317787203 EDIT: it seems there is another formatting bug here too... my attempts to enclose some text in single codeblock symbols [the far lhs key on keyboards] also do not render as other than regular font, in the posted post, when viewed in C, but again is correct in M, P, & S.

I was also going to say "consumes less memory than", but I can't say that. #columnly 5/4

I made a Fediverse Tweetdeck. Privacy is fundamental, which is why I built client side translation support, and it even translates poll questions ✨ Its compatible with: Akkoma, GlitchSoc, GotoSocial, Hollo, Iceshrimp, Loops, Mastodon, Pixelfed, Pleroma, Sharkey, Wafrn, WordPress https://columnly.social #Columnly

@dansup@mastodon.social aha, fair enough, makes sense, alas btw, fyi, since the amazeballs flurry of mods you were so kind to do for me over those recent days, my daily fediversing UX with #columnly is the best it's ever been, irrespective of all the many instances, fedi-alternatives [masto, firefish, friendica, sharkey, pleroma, akkoma], & masto frontends [mastodeck, sengi, phanpy, statuzer] i have tried across the past four years. you have made a large material improvement to each day for me! 🤩🤗

@dansup@mastodon.social is such a useful tool somehow also possible in #columnly , ie, for the Masto part of fedi? 🤷‍♀️

#tweetdeck is back, its called https://columnly.social thanks to @dansup@mastodon.social works really smooth. Very cool! #columnly

#columnly is a different way of viewing mastodon. It is wonderful! I hadn't realized how tedious I was finding #mastodon until I tried it. Using it, I feel as if mastodon is somehow renewed! https://columnly.social/ Thanks, @dansup

@dansup@mastodon.social you are very kind! ta. ok. two more for now [sorry] in the Notifications column [which i keep permanently visible], when peeps Reply to me, i see their text with good proper word-wrap; this is fine. otoh when they Favourite or Boost my posts, the associated item in the Notifications column has no word-wrap, it just appears as a continuous single-line, which is almost always too long for the column width, so most of it is truncated. if there were multiple "ats" before the text, they actually use all that narrow width, so i can't see any of my text & thus often do not know which post is being interacted-with. possible solutions might be to ensure word-wrap also applies to these, or maybe like Phanpy the full post pops up with a mouse-hover...? in threads with responses to an OP with a CW, usually all the replies also have CW. the other Masto front-ends i keep mentioning, or at least two of the three for sure, have an icon / button near the top of such threads to temporarily reveal all the CWs in just that thread, for the duration of that thread being read this one time. it is very convenient, as otherwise one must tediously manually open each CW one by one. might #Columnly also possibly gain such a button pls? thanks, & again, sorry

First! Thanks for everything you do for the community, @dansup@mastodon.social. I've been testing Columnly and I am sold on the columns view since Tweetdeck. Currently I am using iPhanpy for iOS and while it's hard to add other types of accounts there, it's great for viewing other servers local timeline. Is that something you'd consider adding as a column type? The boost carousel is another great feature in the timeline. #columnly

@dansup@mastodon.social oh wow, so it is, that now makes replies so much easier, thank you! 🎉 #Columnly

hi @dansup@mastodon.social if you look at the pic below, taken as i was drafting a reply to an unrelated post, we can see that although #columnly tells me to whom i'm replying, it does not show me their actual post. masto, phanpy, statuzer otoh do show it, which is most helpful if i need to be reminded of various parts of it for composing my reply. would it be possible pls to also provide such feature in Columnly? 🤷‍♀️

@dansup@mastodon.social um, i still have more ideas [different parts of the UI]. would you prefer me to shut up for a few days to give you a break? #columnly

Did you know, https://columnly.social has a custom theme editor, and you can share/export/import custom themes? This started as my own indecisiveness, I couldn't pick between a light and dark mode, so I tried a few variants and then had an idea, maybe people would like this ability. So I shipped a few themes, and they asked if they could customize them further, so I obliged. #Columnly
