Appeareance of images attached to a post


Hello @Friendica Developers @Friendica Support @friendica-dev.mbbit.de/profile… Hello dear community, I would like to discuss with you about the appearance of posts with multiple images on #Friedica. Here is my opinion:
The current way multiple #images are displayed is awful:

Yeah, you saw it by my embedded examples your self. What bothers me most is:

  • It just looks messy (especially when there is a mix of landscape and portrait format)
  • Besides the aesthetics, multiple images take a lot of room (when you do not use an add-on like show more)


My suggestion on which I would love to hear your opinion is to use a grid format like on #mastodon:

I would pitch a suggestion by adding a PR for a (from my point of view) "better" appearance based to this
tutorial. I do not like to use JS in general and would leave it out by determine the suited amount of columns in the backend.

But before I invest time on that, I want to hear your feedback. Thank You!

The image grid feature is now live in the 2022.12-rc branch.

❤ Thank you very much for all the feedback and support! ❤

One known issue is that the grid is not generated in "quote shared" post, and I did not find the time to analyze / address it (github.com/friendica/friendica…).

in reply to Marek Bachmann

Do you have a screenshot showing how this looks like now? 😊
in reply to Hypolite Petovan

I am not able to confirm the issue. On my dev instance, clicking on any image in any of both column starts fancybox correctly (Tested it here: friendica-dev.mbbit.de/display…).
Can you provide an example? Thank You!
in reply to Marek Bachmann

@Marek Bachmann :friendica: @Grischa Don't worry about it, it's an issue with the fancybox addon specifically, and you need an image grid with two columns, it doesn't affect inline images like you've shared.


A moon of Saturn might be one of the most exoplanety worlds out there! Titan, with its thick atmosphere and seas, could be like an early version of Earth.

LIVE NOW: The @NASA_Orion spacecraft is performing the first of two maneuvers to exit lunar orbit and begin its journey from the Moon back to Earth.

The burn is scheduled to begin at 4:53pm ET (21:53 UTC). #Artemis twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1mnxe…

so the earbuds are "a bit pricey" (to be kind) 😆

But the Ox64 SBC looks amazing if we can really have that for $6. Seriously, take a look at the features.

Awesome! I just placed the order that I've been waiting quite some time to place! #PineBudsPro, #Ox64, several #Pinecil (one for me and some for Christmas gifts), and another #PinePhone keyboard case for more modifications. Looking forward to all the new stuff!

its a bit troublesome but we do have opensource amdgpu opencl via rocm on linux.
Sadly OCL is practically a dead thing for compute workloads, while cuda, hip and probably vulkan compute are or will become the replacement . :blobcatthink:

probably worth pointing out, that those "high numbers of commits" are just pulling in commits from main 🙃

Lots of Moon action this month—and we don’t just mean Orion’s journey! On the evening of Dec. 1, the Moon will appear very close to Jupiter. A few days later, it’ll cover up Mars and end the month by sliding past Saturn and Jupiter. Our What’s Up! guide has all the details.

are they using aeroponics to grow the tomatoes? And also did they use anything with microbes to help with nutrient uptake? Or are they just testing the nutrients & growth habits ?

KeepassXC is great, but Availability is critical with password storage. If you lose your database, you've just lost access to dozens of sites. Don't be recommending people use it without some sort of foolproof recovery plan.

nah not a breach.

@jacobgonzales20 a distribution run by one person is not something I'll ever recommend to people regardless of who does it
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

One exception, from experience: when you have a bleeding-edge gaming hardware.

After months of unsuccessful attempts to make Ubuntu use the hardware properly (incl. following GitHub threads closely), I gave Manjaro a shot and it worked on the very same day (this included switching to the experimental linux kernel). I'll very likely revert back to a Debian-based distro at some point though.



A Titan-ic success!

Here is Webb’s first look at Saturn’s largest moon, Titan. Because Titan has a dense atmosphere, its surface is hidden in visible light. Enter Webb’s infrared eye, which captured clouds as well as bright & dark patches on its surface: go.nasa.gov/3FijpXN
#JamesWebb



The 2 clouds seen by Webb validate long-held predictions that clouds form in the northern hemisphere during Titan's late summer, when the Sun warms its surface. Follow-up observations by the Keck Observatory also revealed clouds, confirming seasonal weather patterns.
