Feditext Aug 8, 2023

Feditext beta users: today's build 70 includes:

- rewritten URL handling which fixes navigation glitches and understands links to posts on non-Mastodon instances
- hashtags and account notes on GotoSocial 0.11 (you'll need to be running a pre-release version of GtS, since 0.11 isn't out yet)
- return key now works as expected on instance selection screen
- per-account accent color picker

so i just shipped the above per-account accent color feature for Feditext, but that only works for like… what, about 95% of users?

Fedi users with reduced or absent color vision, when you're organizing things, what visual styling do you like instead of or in addition to color-coding? text weight? font? pattern? extra images or text?

we currently show the instance's name and user's avatar in switcher menus, and the user's avatar in several more places (such as the main navigation bar and on the side of the reply screen).
