Few bugs here and there and some missing notification page, but considering it's age and it being a dev's side/hobby project, it's seriously well done...
Finally !
With the play store access now enabled, I am hoping to attract a bigger audience, who were otherwise unwilling to try the app from alt stores.
#DhaagaDev I was previously insistent on always keeping a top navbar for all pages.
But, I've been digging this no header layout (where your banner extends and cover the top navbar) recently.
Going to apply this for all profile views 😄
Also coming in next version is a dedicated chat UI
Mostly implemented for #bluesky, but I'll try to make it somehow for #activitypub
Always nice to see how a a little bit typography adjustments and gradients make everything look prettier 🥹

🎄 Merry christmas to my handful of #DhaagaApp enthusiasts.
Firstly, let me apologise for my lack of updates in the last few months. 🙇♂️
I finally have a ton of time to continue working on the app. 🥳
Let me share sneak peeks of some cool features I am releasing very soon:
- 📍 Advanced pin system and "Hub" experience
- ✨ Improved user profiles ("Gallery Mode")
- ✨ Improved "Quick Post" UI
- 🎨 Prettier timelines and ergonomic menus
#DhaagaDev Some technical news.
It seems the MongoDB team decided to deprecate the Device sync features for RealmDB.
https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/app-services/sync/device-sync-deprecation/
#DhaagaApp was lucky enough to not use the cloud sync features (therefore not affected)
But, there are definitely long term implications to this, since RealmDB might no longer be a revenue-generating venture for MongoDB.
So, the future is uncertain.
I might need to move towards #watermelondb or other OSS alternatives. 😔
#DhaagaApp v0.5.0 Sneak Peak 👀
Coming to a app near you soon:
- #misskey #sharkey #firefish account support
- unified timeline interface
- emojis (view-only for now)
It is taking extra time, because all the forks have little nuances that need to be dealt with 😅
