@thanius this makes sense! Perhaps few recently used languages at the top?

Tusky is looking for contributors!

The #Tusky team has lost a few contributors this year for various reasons, and we need your help building a kick-ass Mastodon app!

While we would also appreciate more technical contributors, we are specifically looking for:
- a person who can manage or help with our social account
- a project manager who can help us draft a Code of Conduct

Please help us spread the word 😊

#Tusky 24 is here!

- Unlimited tabs
- Upgraded video player
- Trending posts view
- A whole lot of fixes and improvements

See the full changelog: https://github.com/tuskyapp/Tusky/releases/tag/v24.0

The long wait is over!
The #Tusky 24 beta is here!

Response to Nik Clayton

Our OpenCollective policy has always been that we will use our budget to enable contributors who would otherwise not be able to contribute. In one case, this meant that there was no publicly visible work, because the contributor did not manage to get it into a usable form, despite us helping them as much as possible. We recognize that we could be more transparent with our expense policy, and we will work on improving it.

The Tusky team is bigger than ever, but two more known faces are stepping back.

Hi everyone, maloki here. Conny announced his resignation to our matrix channel last night, and this has some people worried. We've been working on this hand over for months, as both him and I are stepping back.

We've now made an official update on our Open Collective , where you can also support the team going forward!

https://opencollective.com/tusky/updates/some-changes-going-forward

Thank you for all your thoughts and support.

Hi, we have a shiny new email address on our domain -
thanks to our friends at @Tutanota for making it happen!
We will provide the same kind of support via mail as we do here - feel free to message us wherever if you need help or have a bug to report!

contact@tusky.app

(Tutanota provides us the email service for free in exchange for their logo on our website. There is no other connection between Tusky and Tutanota.)

If you have #dyslexia , do alternative fonts in apps help with the reading experience?

If yes, are Atkinson Hyperlegible or OpenDyslexic useful fonts to use with #Tusky? Are there others (that are freely redistributable).

The attached screenshots show what this would look like.

Please boost for reach.

@MaryPot @jhamre @feditips

1. Click the hashtag
2. Click the "mute" icon at the top right of the screen

That creates a filter that mutes that hashtag. You can adjust it further in Account preferences > Filters

@sandzwerg this has also been reported at https://github.com/tuskyapp/Tusky/issues/3596. Any additional information you can provide to help us reproduce and fix the problem would be very helpful.

@scatty_hannah yes.

@Piky_Nieves Opt in to the beta on Google Play, https://github.com/tuskyapp/faq/blob/main/README.md#where-can-i-get-tusky

Issues in beta 1 that will be fixed in beta 2

- Beta 1 loads a lot of notifications, which can be twice as slow. We're tuning that back down
- A potential crash when loading notifications
- Filter warnings will show the filter name, not the phrase

There's also an issue with Pixelfed notifications. However, this is not something the Tusky team can fix.

The first beta of #Tusky v22 is out, including:

- View trending hashtags
- Edit image descriptions and focus point
- "Refresh" menu for accessibility
- Support Mastodon v4 filters
- Show detailed differences when a post is edited
- Option to show post statistics in the timeline

Fixes including:

- Show player controls during audio playback
- Correct post length calculation
- Always publish image captions
