Not yet, but we’re planning to get that functionality in for the upcoming release. Currently the only way to get to a PieFed instance page is by navigating from the profile or community information of a PieFed entity.

Any way to tell if it’s app or server? in c/mlemapp@lemmy.ml

Thanks! That does look like a server error—generally 504 is a gateway issue. I suggest bringing it up with your admins.

Could you provide us with the specific error message that occurs when this happens? You can view it by tapping the error popup or in the error log (Settings -> Advanced -> Developer -> Error Log).

Thanks for the suggestion!

We try to only deprecate support once a version is basically unused—beehaw was the only major instance still on 0.18, so we maintained support until they recently upgraded. There are still a few personal instances running 0.18, but that’s an extremely small fraction of the user base.

We have an issue open to handle those cases—we’ll take your thoughts into account!

dots in stats in c/mlemapp@lemmy.ml
[–] ericbandrews@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

This happens when there isn’t enough room on the interaction bar—we have some common sense limits on how many items can be added to the bar to try to prevent this, but the emphasis on customization means that we can’t always account for every configuration and screen size. Handling this overflow elegantly is still an active topic in our design conversation.

I've created an issue to track this. I haven't looked deeply into the technical feasibility--SwiftUI has some powerful tools for reversing layouts to accommodate languages that scan right-to-left, but I can't promise this is a feature we can deliver without doing a bit more research.

We haven't changed anything, but it's possible your instance admins have made some configuration changes--there are some configuration settings that can mess with image proxying. The Voyager dev brought attention to this last week, plus put up a nice page about it--it's possible that the sopuli admins fixed their config in response to that.
