RE: toot.fedilab.app/@apps/1169814…
There are three ways to get #Fedilab beta releases:
- The beta channel on Google Play, by opting in from the app description
- #FDroid through our custom repo fdroid.fedilab.app
- The APK attached to the release notes
PS: all these APKs are signed by me. If you have an F-Droid version, you first need to export your data in settings, remove the app (due to the signature mismatch), install, then import your previous data from the login page. Everything will be restored immediately.

#Fedilab 3.43.0-beta-1 has been published in the dev channel. This release now targets Android 16, which is why I'm releasing it as a beta first.To beta testers: could you check that you don't have any layout issues with this version? Thanks!

@HurricaneWeasel joined the #Fedilab account at @apps. You might already know him, he's the same person managing issues on #Codeberg.
His help with the account will be really valuable to me. The idea is to better handle issues reported on the #Fediverse and in our repo.
When we post, we'll try as much as possible to sign our messages. So, welcome Marco and thank you!

Hi Fedilab,
@apps
I have stopped using the app, coz of one reason. Until that's solved, I couldn't use the app 😭.
When there's some notifications, it goes to read just coz I navigated to the tab. So hard.
So please either mark as read only when I explicitly click a button or mark give each notification a mark as read button.

I'll soon publish a beta release of #Fedilab with several fixes:
- IPv4 fallback when IPv6 fails (mostly over WiFi, with an infinite loader)
- Cache improvements (faster loads even with a heavy cache)
- Memory leak fixes
The target version will also be Android 16, which removed the edge-to-edge opt-out that Fedilab used.
I re-enabled LeakCanary to track them down and fixed four leaks that kept the app holding onto memory while navigating between activities.
People who never kill the app may have run into those crashes. The next release should be more stable.
And for the fedinauts using Fedilab as client: Fedilab can be configured to use Offline Translator for postings.
#HolosDiscover now lets you filter trends (posts, tags and links) by language. It also displays trending accounts related to those results.
What's your opinion about bringing HolosDiscover inside #Fedilab?
- Yes, it would be useful (43%, 45 votes)
- No, keep it for Holos Social (12%, 13 votes)
- What's HolosDiscover? (44%, 46 votes)
I recently got some reports, but most of them are missing the attachment (crash report). That's my fault: the ACRA lib is outdated. After that, I'll start fixing the issues reported on Codeberg.

Personally I applaud any FOSS developer willing to ask for financial help to make their projects better. FOSS should be community development, not martyrdom.
It's not a lot, but I just set up an anonymous monthly payment through Liberapay to put my money where my mouth is.
Thank you for all your amazing work on Fedilab (which I use daily) and HoloSocial (which I hope to use soon). Thankyou too for having the courage to ask, so I remember to help how I've meant to for far too long. What I'm paying doesn't nearly cover the value you provide me, but hopefully this encourages others to chip in and help, too. ❤️

Currently, translating opens the translator app. The idea is to keep everything inside #Fedilab: the translated text comes straight back into the post, so you never leave the app. You do not even notice it used another app in the background. It is already done in #HolosSocial, and I will add it to Fedilab.
Offline Translator | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository

That's a great app with very good translations.
Another well running and integrated is Translate You:
#Fedilab and #HolosSocial allow using the offline translator for #Android, and the app is available on #FDroid.
I would like to encourage every F-Droid user to use it and enable it in Fedilab.

I will improve both apps to capture the translation and go back, because their app allows it.
