The new version of @IceCubesApp with Tag Groups is already available! Huge improvement for the way I use #mastodon

And a tip for the icons: there are some secret ones that don’t get suggested (I wish Apple had an oficial API to list #sfsymbol )

Try “swift” and “applelogo” 😉

@alexito4 @IceCubesApp All icons now get suggested, we use SFSafeSymbols (https://github.com/SFSafeSymbols/SFSafeSymbols) to get a complete list. There are no secret ones anymore.

@havhingstor @IceCubesApp ah I see the commit now. nice one!! I didn't went there because I was not sure about the policy in the project about third party code. I had bad experiences in the past with OSS so I tried to limit my changes hoping it would make it easier to get in.
Having all the power of SFSafeSymbols (an amazing lib I use all the time!) it would be cool to have a nice UI picker ^^ maybe even as a separate package

@alexito4 @IceCubesApp I’ve basically just replaced the list of all symbols. I’ve tried a standard Picker, but that’s not working since we have way too many symbols, so we’d need a dedicated view to search / select, which I didn’t prioritize for now.

@havhingstor @IceCubesApp yeah totally. I found some libs on GH but I didn't trust they were up to date. That's why I wanted to find the symbols at runtime so nobody has to maintain that. But without an official API your solution is the best really. it would be a fun project to make a picker, maybe some weekend ^^
