Is there any chance I could convince you to support fediseer (i.e. display remote instance reputation from your own instance) and threativore user flairs?

I generally try to make photon depend as little as possible on external APIs, especially specific ones.
However, I was thinking of a system to let instance admins choose for themselves if they want their hosting of photon to have it, perhaps through a "plugin" system. I could add a threativore/fediseer plugin that you could specify configuration to.
I probably wouldn't add it on my phtn.app, but I can add "plugins" so that you could use it on lemmy.dbzer0.com.
Being able to hook some sort of plugin system would be perfectly fine with me. I can't develop it myself though >_< But if you would have a fediseer plugin and a threativore plugin and one just provides some necessary variables, I would totally use them.
Thank you! I know youve already implemented most of my suggestions (votes,revamped inbox) etc, and I hate to be pushy, but;
It would be amazing to have registration application templates. Thats the only thing I use for tesseract now (since you've implemented most of what I need)
And two small bugs I found, no pressure:
You can't set the default modlog view despite there being "default" as an option in the Modlog page, but only previews as lists.
In the Arabic version, the RTL switch is broken unlike Hebrew (they both work the exact same, not sure why it's like that)
Anyways, those last two are very small and don't matter much; this update is amazing, Thank you!
We've updated https://p.lemmy.dbzer0.com/ to the latest version
I'm still updating this daily, I'll get that in there soon. I only made the "stable" 2.0 release now because I wanted to get all the instances using the ancient v1.34 up to date
Thanks, at least we could finally update our photon lol
Thanks, Photon is the best site on the web!
Why does my contribution to translating to German always get seemingly forgotten?
Thank you for your work !
I'm really sorry about that, I used a different script to generate the translation reports for this release note than the credits page in the app. The first one only took the top 1 translator, and then I filled what I thought I missed.
I edited the post. Translation is a great dedication of time and I apologize for not recognizing the time you put.
Thank you.
