Lemmy 0.18 broke direct connection to the Lemmy API from web clients with a very strange merge request two weeks ago. I have no idea what the motive was for this to be merged. Suffice it to say, it’s been the source of a ton of headache today. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3191
Luckily, there is a new PR to fix web clients not being able to connect to lemmy instances here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3421
If you have a github account, please “thumbs up” this PR. DO NOT COMMENT, that just spams the devs
Thanks! :)
Left a thumbs up for you on GitHub, hope they pull it soon. 👍
Thank you; I’m connected now. Looks good!
If I’m using the webapp how do I update it?
Settings => check for updates
Well I went back and reinstalled the webapp and now I can’t login bc the keyboard isn’t showing up.
Restart, iOS bug 😔
I tried restarting the phone, the browser, etc… but it only lets me login if I’m using safari and not the home screen version.
Just threw a thumbs up as well. Let’s hope they merge quickly.
I did :)
Thumbed up!
Thanks man! You app guys are killing it :)
That’d include Summit, Thunder, Liftoff, Connect, Mlem, Memmy, Lemming and especially Jerboa
Hell yea - we are spoilt for choice right.
Thank you for all the work you do on this app! ❤️
Thanks it looks good now! Was wondering why Connect was working but WefWef wasn’t
Reading the comments, it looks like breaking clients was the purpose of the original merge.
I had to force close the app and then it updated which fixed most of my issues
