Arctic v0.2.7 is out

Arctic v0.2.7 is out on TestFlight. This update is focused on backend optimization and push notification features.

Community Notifications

You can now setup notifications for individual communities. Notifications can by filtered by post keywords, post author, and post score. In the coming releases I will add support for more filtering options. To list a few, filter by phrase rather than keyword, upvote/downvote rather than just score, multiple authors, comment count, pinned(stickied) posts, etc. I’ll also be adding support for temporary notifications,community notifications that will automatically expire after a set amount of time.

Account Notification Options

Account notifications can now be toggled by type, you can toggle notifications for: badges, replies, mentions, and messages. This also adds support for mods/admins. You can enable mod notifications for new post/comment reports, and admin notifications for new user registration applications. note that user application cannot currently be viewed within Arctic.

Community Jump

You can now tap the title in any posts feed and quickly jump to a different community using the community selector.

Backend Improvements

Arctics Lemmy API wrapper has now been extracted into a swift package (Swimmy) for improved maintainability and so it can be utilized as a shared code base for Arctics Push Notification server. In doing so, I also added support for Combine allowing for improved error handling with the API.

Arctics Server

I’ve migrated Arctics notification server to a new hosting provider. With the new provider, I may be able to offer all notification options as a free service provided I can sustain off of small donations. This would be ideal, as I never wanted to paywall any features in Arctic. I’ve also setup getarctic.app a new home for Arctic. The website is quite barebones at the moment, but I will be updating it as my time allows.

As always, thank you to everyone for helping test Arctic, and providing feedback. I know new features have slowed in the last few releases. Going forward I’ll be working on polishing the current feature set in hopes of an AppStore release in the next couple of weeks.

Its not actually. The post is talking about peoples reaction IF it was cancelled again. It got me too

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

Well shit, I'm glad to hear that. Thanks for the good news!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

Thanks for the cross-post!

I tried signing in with my lemdro.id account but got a timeout error. Has anyone else had this issue?

Edit: typo

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

From the looks of it lendro.id is down. I can’t access it, from anywhere.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

I made a typo in my comment. It’s lemdro.id not lendro.id.

Is there any testing I can do on my side to help debug?

EDIT: Found the issue. I completely missed that it asked for username when logging in and my password manager filled in the email. Working as expected when I put in the username

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Sorry for the late response, I’m glad you figured this out though. It is peculiar though, as the Lemmy API specifies that you can sign-in with username or email. I’ll do some testing to see if this issue is on my end, or an API issue.
