overlooked fix in Lemmy v0.19.4: the Chat view works now!

something that didn't get mentioned in the announcement but I think is nice, the Chat view has been fixed!

I believe it was fixed here https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2480

it even allows sorting in either direction, you can do Chat view with New or Old sort!

  • Woah woah ... this is legit awesome! Just tested (on lemmy.ml) and yep ... seems to be working like a charm!

    Give up to matc-pub for the PR (and maybe a new core dev for lemmy too?).

    I figure this makes live megathread style posts/chats more viable ... which is certainly cool!

    I've mentioned this before, but an interesting possibility might be to enable selected posts to be "live chats" through a websocket like process as lemmy used to be, just for selected posts for certain windows of time, whenever a live chat dynamic is sort.

    It's the sort of thing that could be scheduled and subject to admin approval or something if resources are a concern.

    Otherwise ... awesome to see!

  • I wasn't aware, thanks for the heads up!
