Slugable collections

Collections are now slugable. Meaning, instead of collection URL being /@mbajur/123, the number is being replaced with a parametrized version of collection name, so it becames /@mbajur/pond-news.

The logic is simple:

  1. If the slug candidate is available, Collection Name is being transformed into collection-name
  2. If the slug candidate is taken by any other collection on the instance, it gets transformed into collection-name-a1b2c - with random hash appended at the end of the slug.

Same collection slugs will be used as collection handles once Pond supports federation.

 

Text posts now live!

pppond now supports text posts! You can either past a text anywhere on pppond to open this window prefilled or go the regular +Add -> Text route.

We still don't have a single post view so all you can do to view entire text post is to scroll it's box but we'll get there.

Enjoy!
