Wait, why do you say this? I’m no Plex shill, this is disappointing news to hear and is the strongest push toward Jellyfin I’ve had yet. But they’re certainly a business with employees they need to pay, and their app has an objectively large feature set that needs to be maintained. Their employees deserve raises and benefits, and if costs are rising at the grocery store, they’re probably rising for businesses too. Why are we stupid to believe their financial burden is growing?

I was already convinced, you don’t have to keep selling me

Thanks for taking the feedback and continuing to work on this. Honestly, I thought you had given up on the app when you went on that fishing trip that just seemed to keep continuing 😆. Not knocking you - everyone deserves time to themselves. But glad to see this app is still something you’re working on!

Ok I’ll give you that - being able to inline gifs is sick

Honestly, it’s a couple things. First of all is just general compatibility. There are certain domains that don’t play at all (redgifs, for example). They just show up as links to click. Then, there are ones that are a little more transient, but still negatively affect the UX. An example is if you browse !videos@lemmy.world right now. The first post there (https://aussie.zone/post/6569161) won’t load for me in the feed, and will only load if I click into the post. Once it’s loaded, I can go back out and it’ll play in the feed - but no matter how many times I try or how long I wait, it won’t play in the original feed. Additionally, the play/pause, sound controls, and scrubbing controls are only available if I click into the post. They work, but it’s less convenient.

Here are examples of my experience in both apps:

Avelon (and I forgot to show you can scrub the gif directly in the feed)

Voyager (the video continues until after I click into the post - I just wanted to show let it load for a while)

Idk, the lackluster support for gifs has kinda killed it for me. I’m finding Avelon to be a much closer replacement

Woof bro, there’s still time to delete this cringey shit

😆

I think you’re spot on

Well I’ll be…learned something new today !

That’s the whole debate, OP. It’s solved with this short exchange.

The related Wikipedia page, in case anyone else was curious

Lmao excellent reference

Hates the right

Actively advocating for capital punishment

Oh hey no worries, just writing down the things I’ve realized for others so they don’t get stuck! Yeah agreed, deep links to other shortcuts should have a way to install those dependencies

Not only is the Actions app required, but you must also download the Toggle Silent Mode shortcut of his

I’m really missing the “serious” tags from Reddit right about now. Or maybe the Out of the Loop subreddit

Yours being in the negative is the whole reason I responded to it, actually. I was hoping my context could make people see that yours was the appropriate stance for those who aren’t hopelessly naive. Sorry it didn’t work!
