Loving the new updates, but what all has changed?

3 years ago by artillect to c/kbinMeta

I tried looking around for a changelog but I couldn't find one anywhere (let me know if you know where it is, I know you can look at the commits/merged PRs on Codeberg but there's a lot to dig through).

Here's some of the changes I've noticed:

  • Profile picture next to username in top right
  • Comments can now be sorted by "top"
  • Larger image preview when uploading an image
  • Magazine stats are now localized (yay!!!)
  • kbin logo instead of stormtrooper in the "Create your own instance" box
  • Vote colors are brighter on dark mode
  • New theme: Tokyo Night

This is just what I've seen after using the site for a bit after the update, let me know if there's anything I've missed!

Edit: I just noticed that you can filter posts by language now, that's huge!

Looks like the kbin PWA on my phone is now following my default setting for homepage of subscribed instead of all when opening it. I like this change.

Still overrides my locked rotation, though. Oh well 😅

Really looking forward to seeing what all's changed and I d'awww-ed at my little new icon. I was kinda thinking the work would last for several more hours, so I'm very happy to see it back already

Edit: Important update for anyone on mobile, the kbin logo now takes me to Home! The hamburger menu has an acceptable hitbox again!

The rotation thing was fixed but typically phones only update the PWA manifests every now and then. Quick and easy win would be to reinstall it. That'll force a fetch.

The kbin logo not linking directly to home was probably one of my top UI gripes. I'm glad to see it get changed. Still hoping there will be an easier way to bring up the list of subscribed magazines.

I had to re-install my PWA, but it now adheres to the rotation setting on my phone. I'm using a Samsung Android phone so it may depend on the OS.
