OK, finally I limited the connection to peertube for showing "how to videos" for #mastalab

I guess it should help to be aware of some features.

To start the week-end, I published the release 1.14.0.

What's new:

# Added
- Long press on bookmark button to bookmark toots with another account (non compact mode)
- Verified URL on profiles (currently only available on mastodon.social)
- Block domains
- Videos can be shared

# Changed
- Descriptions for media are displayed longer
- Improve filters (also check spoilers)

#mastalab

I made another short video to show how cross-account actions work. Their purpose is to avoid switching between accounts. (I switched here only to show results).
Example will show compose, reply, follow and boost.

Mastalab allows to translate toots but you can also translate your message in another langage before posting it.

A small example: I wrote a message in French and I translated it in English.

I would love to have the help of an UX designer to improve the app. Don't you? :)

I think the next release of #mastalab will offer the ability to follow instances.
Currently, I need to set by default cross-account actions but an important part already works.

Delete&Re-draft has 2 bugs currently that are now fixed (mentions and replies). I will publish the release tomorrow.

I have also added, the possibility to edit custom fields in profile. And I added a shortcut "+" in the top bar for tags search. That allows to pin them quickly in a column.

I will be back in dev soon for #mastalab. Please, let me know what features are a top priority for you. I will use this thread for dev. Thanks for your suggestions.
Bug fixes are also welcome :)

I implemented DeepL in MyTransL (https://github.com/stom79/mytransl). I will allow people to put their own API key with #Mastalab.
If there are other API that you would like to use, let me know so I can add them.

PS: Thanks to #DeepL that kindly offered me an API key for tests - @djayroma ;)

I think I will move #Mastalab from #github to #gitlab
I hope that people will keep reporting bugs.
Do you know if there is a problem for moving tickets?

The next release of #Mastalab will have a black theme.
I will continue to work on next improvements.

When you use the app to share a link, it will automatically retrieve the title, a small summary and attach a media related to the page you are sharing.

I fixed the upload issue when editing the profile. I forgot a boundary :blobpats:

I will publish the new release soon.

I published the release 1.8.6. The bug with the orientation of the media is fixed. Thanks to testers :)

Also utm parameters are automatically removed from URLs. It might need some improvements, so don't hesitate to share your feedback.

Other fixes:
- Jpg/png issue.
- URL detection

More: https://github.com/stom79/mastalab/releases/tag/1.8.6

I would like to bring an improvement by removing automatically utm that are in some URLs. I opened an issue for that, if you have some ideas concerning the regex that will be used to cover this issue, don't hesitate to share them. Thanks

Do you know that you can use #Tor #onion instances with the app? Just set up the proxy. It is as simple as that. 
#Mastalab #tips

Don't lose your time by switching from an account to another one, just to find a toot for a reply, a fav or a boost.
#Mastalab allows you to do it quickly with a long click on the reply/boost/fav buttons. It will work even if the toot is unknown by the other instance #tips
