Hey everyone, today's update features many quality-of-life improvements for everyone, beginning with editing your comments! Yes, finally. 🥰

On top of that:

As a last feature, the filters on the Public Gallery now persist on your device and in the URLs, which means you can save multiple Bookmarks depending on your mood. (e.g.: Start using the filters and save a bookmark with commercial filters, from everyone or a bookmark for only the residents you follow, without the commercial content.)

Thank you. As a reminder, Primfeed will host its first Community Meeting on November 3, 2024, at 1:00 PM SLT. The idea is for me to discuss past and future updates and talk with you if you want to discuss any subjects. ❤️

Primfeed just received its most significant update yet. Mentions, a new navigation, likes from the Public Gallery... There is a lot to cover. Let's see together what's new 👇

I know you've been waiting for a long time, but it's here. Mentions of users and stores have been added to Primfeed. You can mention someone in a post, comment or in your profile description. They will receive a notification only when mentioned in a post or comment.

One of Primfeed's promises was to replace Flickr, the social media focused on media sharing you've been used to for years. While I wanted Primfeed to be a bit of the best of everything, you made it clear that you wanted Primfeed to be more focused on media sharing, and the new navigation will help with that.

The Public Gallery is now Primfeed's default page, the Home. The old Home page and Discovery have been moved to a new page, Feeds, which contains the usual "Following" and "Discovery" feeds, with filters for pictures and text, text only, or pictures only.

A few months ago, I asked you what your ideal Public Gallery would be. One of the main pains was that you could only like a picture directly from the Public Gallery view after having to click on it first. 

Starting today, if you hover your mouse above a picture from the Public Gallery, the artist's name, the post's first characters, and the like button will appear. This will allow you to quickly like a picture without opening it first, which is handy!

Primfeed uses a new editor, and premium members can now format their text. Start writing your post and select the text you want to make bold or italicized. 

Previously, you could only create a post from your Home feed. This is no longer the case, and you can now create a Post from anywhere on Primfeed using the new button in the sidebar.

This was one of the top requested features. Premium members can now schedule posts. Write your post, choose your pictures, select a date and you're ready to go.

Primfeed has a good design but lacks the modern feeling I intended it to have. Margins, text sizes, and fonts have been refined and will continue to be refined.

Residents spend a lot of their time at events, whether group meetings, live music shows, or gatherings. However, they didn't have a dedicated place on Primfeed, which was a bummer.

The new Events page is live for everyone. Any premium members can create a new listing with its flyer to promote their event.

While a lot of commercial content was allowed in the Public Gallery, commercial events needed to be included. It was a challenge to find a rule that could be fair to them while not spamming the Public Gallery with the same ads over and over.

Commercial events can now publish their flyer to promote their event once a week in the Public Gallery, and they can publish vendor ads of products sold at their event.

Lastly, the Public Gallery now includes a lot more results.

This is the most significant update Primfeed has received yet, and I hope the wait was worth it. I've been using this version internally for a few days now, and it feels so much better than what we had until now, and I'm excited to see your first reactions.

As always, please let me know what you think. Thank you for being part of Primfeed's journey. ❤️
