Hi everyone!
On the surface, this update brings a handful of features integrating the extension with other tools and services. We have the first of many features from the LemmyTools userscript, as well as the support for Alexandrite and Photon frontends. You can also directly search for communities through Lemmyverse.net and for posts through search-lemmy.com, among other small changes.
The biggest change was behind the scenes. I've completely refactored the code throughout the extension. Now that we have a clearer plan for the extension, I simplified all around, such as consolidating most functions to a central utils.js file. I also reworked the settings, and unfortunately this means you may have to add your home instance again. Moving forwards, it should be a lot easier to maintain the extension and for people to collaborate, which brings me to:
IDK what instance assistant is.

This is probably it’s headline feature
You can see the full description on the relevant store.
Yes fair enough, I'll include a better description as a dropdown in future posts.
Instance Assistant is a browser extension with a handful of tools on Desktop. It started out as a button to redirect to your home instance, but with the help of others we've included a few other functions and are working on more.
