The huge version of #Fedilab (3.31.1) was compiled by #FDroid. We are sorry for that, we thought to have made everything to avoid that (3.31.1 exists in a smaller release).
This important difference in size is due to the use of a library that allows to locally detect the language used in a message. We needed it for MinT translator that doesn't support auto detection.
We immediately removed this lib and we used the language attached to a message (though it is not perfect)

Really sorry for that

To Google Play users, now, we attach each time the #Fedilab apk for Google Play in release notes.

This is exactly the same apk that we submit to Google (no signature issue). That simply allows you to get it faster without breaking updates.

Did you know that you can customize colors with #Fedilab ?
These colors can be set for light and dark mode independently.

Now we have a wiki for #Fedilab!

We are slowly migrating the existing (and not-so-complete) documentation to the new wiki 😀

If you would like to help by adding/maintaining a wiki page for a feature you like, DM us and we can create a wiki account for you 😀

Here's one of the pages we moved so far:

Hey @pixelfed,

Are the API endpoints used in the official #Pixelfed app documented somewhere or we missed something?

We try our best to provide good Pixelfed support in #Fedilab. It would be easier if API information are easily accessible. That would help other third-party apps too. There are some information available in beta-preview.pixelfed.io and docs.pixelfed.org, but it seems not complete

#Fedilab 3.31.0 has been published:

Added:

- Pinned Trending Timeline (can be hidden in "Manage Timelines")
-Add a fallback to the default translator
- New #Pixelfed entry in Settings to disable fullscreen for media
- Add tooltips for tabs in profiles

You might know that #Fedilab runs its own translation server (using #LibreTranslate).
But did you know that the app also supports two other translators?

- #Lingva: you won't need extra steps though you can change the default instance.

- #DeepL: A more powerful translator. It's a paid service but you can get 500,000 characters per month for free.

Everything is configurable in settings Have a look to media descriptions).

More about getting a free DeepL api key: support.deepl.com/hc/en-us/art…

Still no crash reports received for #Fedilab 3.30.1 (523).

- We fixed the issue with media descriptions not updated (when editing a message with several media).

- We are still investigating the issue with push notifications for some Google users where the app distributor is not saved in settings.

Would you be interested by a full step by step on how to use our #FDroid repo to get updates immediately?

It will cover all situations (when coming from FDroid or Google Play). Explain more about beta releases, backup data before switching etc.

We can even make this part translatable to reach more people.
