Is there a Tweetdeck style thing for Mastodon?

@schmidt_fu @alexisbushnell

Indeed, I took inspiration from old tweetdeck (the client before twitter bought them in 2010-2011), the new one, and mastodon's UI.

Small #wip of what next #Sengi update might bring. 😉

Still lots of work to do, and it's clearly not really fun stuff. But I know some of you will be happy to get it. 🙂

(If you want to get it sooner, buy me some coffee via my patreon!)

Hello all, I'm trying something new to get a better vision of users, what you like in the app, what you don't like and miss.

(yes, it's a survey 😶)

You can find it here: https://forms.gle/QbVhVQDnuShfvhUB9

Since it's the first time I'm doing this exercise, don't hesitate to give me any feedback about the process by itself!

Also, boosting for visibility will be highly appreciated. 🙂

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@lienrag sérieusement, oui. 😉

Mais tu est libre de m'indiquer une alternative que tu considère comme étant meilleure, je l'envisagerai pour la prochaine fois.

Dans mes critères : gratuit et sans limites, et ayant un minimum de contraintes pour éviter qu'il puisse être abusé trop facilement.

@Xen4n welcome new user! 😁

@xtb

thanks, will have a look!

@silmathoron @bllgvn

Indeed, I didn't want the survey to be too easily abused, but I might drop the restriction.

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@silmathoron thanks, didn't know about Yakforms, will have a look.

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

If you don't have a Google account but wanted to participate to the Sengi Survey: I just removed the constraint. 😉

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

Thanks for everyone that took the survey so far! It's really informative.

And if you haven't yet, it's still time!

I have just noticed that Sengi has LibreTranslate built in to translate text from different languages to the one is selected as the default language in the settings 😎. Kudos 👍 for using an a FLOSS solution for translating instead of the more mainstream google translate. 😄

@light well... I don't. 😶

Sengi is only providing access to the translator available in your instance. So if your instance use LibreTranslate, kudos to your instance's admin. 😉

@sengi_app Hello! How can I have my Federated Timeline in chronological order? The toots seem to generally load in chronological order, but as I scroll down a ways, I'll notice some from hours in the past mixed in with some that are only a few minutes old. I've disabled boosts and replies and the problem continues.

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@TheFreshBeets can you check if you have the same issue in the official MastodonUI? Federated content can have some discrepancies when some old posts finally gets federated.

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@TheFreshBeets thanks! I'll have a look at it.

1.7.0 is out! 🙂

Some nice improvements here: server filters support, links in profile's image gallery to open original posts and more!

Full changelog here: https://github.com/NicolasConstant/sengi/releases/tag/1.7.0

sengi_app, to mastodon
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

1.6.0 is out! 🙂

Interesting features in this one: language autodetect (you'll need to update to the latest electron build), new options on user profiles, accounts reorganization and some fixes too!

@NicolasConstant
@sengi_app

Just discovered : BRAVO

2 things:

  1. site says 1.8.0 but linux appimage says 1.6.0 ??

  2. dark mode only ?

Merci

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@FrankauLux hi!

Glad you like the app. 🙂

1/ please find a detailed explanation here: https://github.com/NicolasConstant/sengi/wiki/Why-installed-version-is-different-of-the-app-version%3F

2/ unfortunately, theming isn't supported on Sengi.

@fabzgy@freiburg.social avatar

strange - @sengi_app states it is on Sengi version: 1.6.0 but snap says it is running 1.8.0
Whats is true?

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@fabzgy
Both:
Sengi is a webapp, and currently at the 1.6.0 version.
The snap build is an Electron wrapper, currently at the 1.8.0 version.

Both are from different repository too. 🙂

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@fabzgy indeed, two pieces of software.

The thing you installed is just a way to load and host the webapp in a convenient way for a desktop usage. It has its own codebase and versioning.

And the webapp (that can be loaded via a regular browser or the Electron wrapper) also has its own codebase and versioning.

I understand it can be misleading tho.

@sengi_app Just noticed a funny little mistake in the current version, the package is Sengi 1.8.0.deb, but in the preferences it says version 1..6.0

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@taur10 not really a mistake in fact. 😉

Sengi (the web app) is currently in v1.6.0.

Sengi Electron, the Electron wrapper for Sengi webapp, is in v1.8.0.

It's two separated projects/repositories and therefore, versions. 🙂

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@taur10 can be indeed. But the flexibility it gives is really appreciable. 🙂

@sengi_app Seems like this would be a Frequently Asked Question but I couldn't find anything on it; is Sengi usable in a context where you don't have the ability to right click, i.e. on a mobile screen?

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@spacewizard hi!
Sengi is mostly oriented to be a desktop only experience, so not so great on other form factor.

But - and that's something that amaze me - I know that there are some users of Sengi that do use it on mobile etc, so... it's possible. 🙂

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@spacewizard maybe "tap and hold" would trigger some sort of right click event?

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@spacewizard it is indeed an unusual design choice. 🙂

I have to say that I'm a bit upset against the trend of making UI dumb due to dumb and limited peripherals. And that's why when making Sengi the N°1 objective was to make something really towards desktop users and their peripherals, without concessions for other usages (that already got a lot of good apps and tools).

Also, most FOSS I do is usually "what I'd like to use myself" and I share it afterward. So it's opiniated for sure.

sengi_app,
@sengi_app@mastodon.social avatar

@spacewizard ahah yes, been there too. I think every user of Sengi (myself included) needs to get used to this "it's way too easy to use the wrong account", but that's also the power of the tool.
