Pachli

The latest #Pachli Current (3.4.0+29a96332) is rolling out now with some notification improvements

1. Notifications about a post will always include the "action bar" under the post so you can reply, bookmark, quote, etc directly from the notifications view.

2. #accessible #talkback actions have been added, and the descriptions have been improved to provide a better experience.

Thanks to @Aryan, @wolfblade , and @dhamlinmusic for the feedback that prompted these changes.

Two other #talkback improvements.

1. Posts with a closed content warning now only read the post's content after the content warning is opened.

2. Any quoted posts are now read properly.

@pvagner @pachli Which talkback actions were added; I thought these were already a thing?
Show threadPachliMar 5

@fireborn @pvagner Some post notifications had actions. For example, if it was a "Someone mentioned you" notification then there were actions to reply. But others didn't.

The notifications and new actions are:

- Someone followed you: action to open their profile
- Someone requested to follow you: actions to accept or reject the request
- You received a moderation warning: action to open the warning

@fireborn @pvagner

The last two are for moderators/admins only:

- You received a report from a user: actions to open the report, open the reporter's profile, open the reportee's profile
- Someone new has signed up to your server: action to open the new user's profile

@pachli @pvagner I update through Obtainium and don't seem to have recieved this update yet. I'm guessing I was mistaken when; I thought it had been released.
Show threadaaronMar 6
@pachli Never mind, it just wouldn't update for some reason.

@pachli @wolfblade @dhamlinmusic Also the issue with talkback not letting you swipe if a notification of someone following you is their is still present.

@Aryan I don't think I understand.

With TalkBack enabled I can tap on a "x followed you" notification, and then swipe to access a TalkBack action to open their profile.

Are you expecting something different?

Show threadaryanMar 6
@pachli no, like swipe left and rite that move your focus cann't let you cross over a follow notification. for example, try swipeing left from a person followed notification, or swipe rite from their bio if that is showing in the notifications area.

@Aryan I can reproduce this problem in Pachli, but not in Pachli Current.
Show threadaryanMar 6
@pachli Think i'll need to check again.
Show threadaryanMar 6
@pachli could Obtainium be the issue?
Show threadaryanMar 6
@pachli I am now testing this and it seems to have been resolved
Show threadaryanMar 6
@pachli still reads boosted posts like this, for example. , <b>[email protected]</b> boosted, Reblogged, Favourited; Public, 7 Favourites, 12 Boosts
Show threadPachliMar 6
@Aryan Can you send a link to one of these that has the problem. I just tested with one of my boosted posts and it reads correctly.
Show threadaryanMar 6
@pachli there is no specific post it seems to happen in all of the post that I am seeing. Itraps the boosters name in some less than and greater than blocks as I should

@Aryan I am not certain you're using the most recent release of Pachli Current (which was about 20 hours ago).

If you open the Pachli left-navigation menu, and go to "About", it should tell you the Pachli Current version number.

It should be 3.4.0+109f7ae5

For some reason Obtainium on my test device is showing an older version from a few days ago.

@pachli I have this but still this issue happens
Show threadaryanMar 6
@pachli also, if possible, the coated post separately should be hidden from TalkBack as we can open the quoed post using the action itself
