Is it possible to set the old navigation style as the default via an ENV parameter?

My first impression is that it doesn't work very well on desktop. Maybe on mobile it is better, but there are many other mobile apps for Lemmy...

Maybe there could be an option to only enable it on small screens?

Yes, you can set the old navigation style as the default.

Can you please document how (via ENV) in the readme? Thanks!

[–] Xylight 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sure. For now, I've added it to the release notes on the Github. Instance admins should set PUBLIC_DOCK_TOP and PUBLIC_DOCK_PANEL to true.
