Oh my, I feel like there are 3 wayland devs inside my brain trying to decide which way to do something really specific but important for many people

Hey, so yeah, I have finally added an option to make the Moshidon text big.

This the following link contains a nightly build, which can be installed alongside the stable build.

Please try it out at: https://nightly.link/LucasGGamerM/moshidon/workflows/nightly-builds/master/moshidon-nightly.apk.zip

I have found something that may have helped trigger the "Too many requests" issue for Moshidon.

I have pushed a fix a couple minutes ago, and I'd hope some of the affected people would find it useful.

This build is a nightly build, which can be installed alongside the stable build, so please try it out and tell me if anything changes.

Get the nightly build with the fix here: https://nightly.link/LucasGGamerM/moshidon/workflows/nightly-builds/master/moshidon-nightly.apk.zip

Status of the rewrite part 2: the new menus with icons will be used only when needed (it's a pain to manage them, so I will maybe get them good everywhere on a later date); The home tab fragment is a fine piece of art, thank you @megalodon for writing it, and when I get it compiling and working, the rest of the rewrite will be a matter of small details, which means it's a nice opportunity to refactor a bunch of stuff and remove a lot of legacy settings.

Thank you guys for the support ❤️

Ahhh so many files to merge

@coloco I actually found a way to implement the big text, so hopefully in the release after the bugfix it will be available

Omg maintaining an app is difficult

Nightly has a few issues with crashing when trying to update through the download button, and also the copy crash log feature is also making the app crash (this is really just giving me headaches), which is why I am working on a better crash handler, because I don't want the headaches of having the crash logs hard to find for the users that just want to use the app without it crashing :D

But there is something that keeps me going. Apart from the enjoyment of coding, the thing that keeps me going is the financial support you guys give me. Without it, I'd still be rocking an old machine, having headaches just navigating android studio.

With your help, I was able to get a decent computer for developing Moshidon, and recently I was even able to buy a 32gb kit of ram, which is helping immensely my dev experience.

Thank you a lot for believing in me and my work ♥️

Everything is falling in place to the release tomorrow.

We will do first a pre-release, just to see if anything major broke or new bugs have been found.

After the pre-release phase is over, we will finally see a new stable release!

(Nightlies have kept me waaay too relaxed about making a new release, so that's why we don't do 3 per week anymore :D)

Hey beautiful people, next Monday a new release shall be born, with many new and exciting features.

But, we first need your help to translate the new strings. I would be honored to have you contribute a language translation (if you know any other language) on https://translate.codeberg.org/projects/moshidon/

Thank you for your amazing support!

P.S.: values and megalodon_values are the priority

So I think liberapay works now. (I previously was too young to have a paypal, but now I am old enough).

Can you guys test it out at https://liberapay.com/LucasGGamerM/donate please?

Thank you!

Bugs shalt be fixed

When you forget to set a post to "mentions-only" and end up confusing your followers / and almost embarrassing yourself 😵💫

I have just been informed we were featured on an It's FOSS article! (at https://news.itsfoss.com/moshidon/)

I cannot overstate how proud and happy I am to have such a wonderful community, you guys ROCK 🤟🤟

Inset drawables changing behavior after the latest Android 14 update without warning is the most google thing I have ever seen
