  • Yeah, voyager does not have any ads or tracking or anything. It’s truly privacy first. In fact the only “analytics” I get are from Apple App Store and Google Play Store download counts etc which I can’t turn off. But if you use F-droid I have literally 0 usage information even crashes :)

    Also Voyager has reproducible builds which means you don’t have to trust me. You can verify that the APK was built from a specific release of the source code!


  • Thanks! Also noteworthy, for those instances using lemmy-ansible (should be most) this release should fix video streaming for Safari clients (videos refusing to play), and enable progressive streaming for all pictrs videos (before in chrome/firefox/native players they would have to finish downloading before playing).

    For those instances using a custom nginx reverse proxy with caching enabled, please enable the slice module! After upgrading to 0.19.10 feel free to ask me and I can help out to check to make sure it’s working properly.















  • Hi, Voyager dev here, I’d like to see a very small, terse API for clients devs to make a more seamless experience!

    The MVP IMO would be a way to automatically log the user in when opening the Canvas, perhaps by

    • well known Canvas user handle for client to automatically DM for OTP
    • client waits for OTP in DMs
    • client adds a query parameter with the user handle and OTP to the URL to open browser, so user is automatically logged in with 0 clicks!

    And I could see stuff beyond this. Like an API to know event metadata, docs on how to embed Canvas in app (would be great for engagement)

    Anywho simple is best but would be awesome for tighter integration of apps/clients with a documented API!
