Alexandrite now has cross-posting! You can cross post from the ‘…’ menu on posts:

crosspost menu

You then pick a community from your subscriptions, or search for any other community, or directly enter the full name like alexandrite@lemmy.world if you want a very specific one and don’t want to bother with searching.

And links to cross-posts will now show when viewing a posts:

Alexandrite now matches Lemmy-UI handling taglines. If an instance has any taglines set it will now pick a random one instead of showing all of them.

Lastly if you have NSFW thumbnail handling set to “Hide” or “Blur”, it will now hide/blur thumbnails when a post is in a NSFW community, even if the post itself isn’t marked NSFW, as the post is probably actually NSFW anyway and it’s better to be safe than sorry.

    Thats great! Any chance threads will be able to show comments from all cross posts with a little indicator displaying what community/thread the comments are from?

    I have an issue with NSFW content showing unblured, while browsing. This is an issue while browsing Cards. The image itself is blured as a thumbnail, when the post is opened, and it unblures when hovering above it. Could there be an option to blur all images, unless clicked open.

    Browsing local and having random nsfw posts in their full glory is rather not pleasant.
