@shadow@lemmy.ca made the following updates this week.

For lemmy.ca:

For piefed.ca:

We have a guide about the frontends here: https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/lemmy/for-users/alternative-uis

We haven’t updated the guide with these recent changes yet. In the meantime, you can learn more about Photon and Blorp in these communities:

Both frontends have support for multiple accounts. You can also log in to other instances (not lemmy.ca / piefed.ca) if you wanted to.

Enjoy!

    Thank you for your work! I didn’t know about Blorp until this post, it looks amazing.

    Edit: one thing I just noticed is when I log in, it gave me an error message saying I had an incorrect login but then refreshed to a logged in state with my account. (in other words it worked fine to log in, it just flashed me that message anyway.) I’m in win10 with Firefox 144 (64bit) if that’s important.

    Edit 2: Just tried again, worked fine and no message now.

      Not exactly sure what the issue was here, but I did just discover a bug where you have to manually refresh the page to load your user. I’m fixing it so it will automatically fetch your user after login, without the need for manual reload. I’ll keep an eye out for the error you mentioned.

        Maybe it was just a glitch on my end… it only did it the very first time I logged in and hasn’t done it since. Otherwise everything seems solid so far.
