@admin do you know any details on the issue? π€

Randomly saw this on HN: "LibRedirect β Redirects popular sites to alternative privacy-friendly frontends" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44344246 β https://libredirect.github.io/ and saw "Tenor β Soprano" β https://git.vern.cc/cobra/Soprano β went through the instances.json file, try one instance and check out the URLs.
Soβ¦ it's just a media proxy? π€
40.
Why do mockups for web sites always start with large viewports (desktops)? π
Itβs already 2025.
@dimillian not sure if you're using UA detection, could use `api_versions` instead πββοΈ https://mastodon.social/@cheeaun/114308362237360736
@ElPamplina thanks! Will fix πββοΈ
@abraham looks like Mastodon Bird UI applied, probably not updated or aware of this change.
@tripplehelix I'm also trying out Vivaldiβthere's a whole bunch of hacks from folks who want to make it look like Arc, butβ¦ so much work π©
@luckkerr for `blur` action, Phanpy uses `api_versions`. It's not ideal but still better than UA string detection.
@hongminhee honestly imo, the support for multiple runtimes is reason enough to use it π
@leaferiksen oh, that's interesting. Arc's other browser, Dia, can import from Arc ππ
I've looked into this from random scripts other people built to hack the import. Seems possible if Zen's devs really put the effort into it. I don't use bookmarks anymore, so the one I care most is the current folders of tabs, which I've checked, is just plain JSON file.
Honestly I think Zen devs should prioritize these kind of migrations, especially when they purposely design the browser to look like Arc.
@nighthawk @zenbrowser oh I think I tried that too. Also weird that the location bar is not splitted in Split View π
Few days ago, tried to migrate from Arc to @zenbrowser https://zen-browser.app/
- It can't import (bookmarks, history, etc) straight from Arc π€¦ββοΈ
- It supports Spaces but no Folders π©
- There's no UI/buttons/menu's to initiate Split View, have to drag the tabs.
- Peek is known as Glance, there's no option to trigger it without keyboard shortcuts and only for links to other sites
- Zen Mods feels like just CSS stylings on the browser UI
Possibly 3rd Mastodon client to work on iOS 26 beta: @Bubble https://mastodon.online/@Bubble/114705752552635374
Compose button's location in tab bar is interesting, but once tapped, I don't know how to exit the Composer view π€

@manualdousuario I read their blog post: https://blog.cloudflare.com/full-stack-development-on-cloudflare-workers/ (April 2025). In short they're expanding to more full stack web hosting and this sentence "Cloudflare Pages will continue to be supported, but, going forward, all of our investment, optimizations, and feature work will be dedicated to improving Workers" is the wake-up call here.
@box464 I test it every year. It's used to be more buggy but gets more stable over the years. There's still a chance that it might cause weird issuesβfollow reddit /r/iOSBeta to read more stories. I used to get iCloud sync not working or Camera app crashing in the past. Some dealbreakers include banking apps might not work, so FYI & read about others who test if those apps work first.
Testing @IceCubesApp 2.0 beta https://mastodon.social/@dimillian/114703068434994690
(sometimes I see errors on the screens, no idea why)
Seems like @cloudflare now encourages moving from Pages to Workers.
Tried it and realised that it doesn't support separate env variables for different branches/environments π€¦ββοΈ
We've released the second beta of #Mastodon 4.4 - including some UI fine tuning and new updates, additional integration for Fediverse Auxiliary Service Providers, and more progress on support for incoming quote posts. Please give it a try on your instance, if you can - we appreciate feedback. πͺ§
Next up will be a Release Candidate, and then the full release itself π€π»
