nileane/TangerineUI-for-Mastodon v2.5.1

on GitHub

This is a follow-up to v2.5, with an updated install.sh script, which now handles localization.

✳️ New

• The install.sh installation script now handles adding localized names for each variant of Tangerine UI, in a selection of languages. The installation instructions in README have been updated and simplified as a result:

  • The "Install (using the included script)" section now has one less step. The step instructing to manually add localized strings in each locale file is no longer needed and has been removed.
  • Step 3 of the "Install manually" section now simply instructs to copy the tangerineui.yml localization file provided in this repository to config/locales in the Mastodon instance directory.
  • Note: Mastodon automatically falls back to the English variant names when a locale is missing from tangerineui.yml. However, feel free to submit a Pull Request to add more!

• The install.sh script now defaults to the latest release tag instead of the main branch.

  • This change ensures that new users do not install an unstable or untested version of Tangerine UI from the main branch of the repository, but rather the latest release tag at github.com/nileane/TangerineUI-for-Mastodon/releases
  • You can still run the script with the --main flag to stay on the main branch and install from the latest commits: ./install.sh --main.

🔨 Fixed

• Some tiny fixes were made around video player controls and link previews.

To use the updated installation script, refer to the Installation instructions in README ("Install (using the included script)").

If you were already using the installation script before today, you will need to override it with the updated sample script to benefit from the changes.
