There's already a check in Nav.php for whether or not the current user has any additional identities so I was thinking of using that to swap out the label and icon so it shows a user icon with a "+" and says "Add Account" but if they already have one (or more) it would be the arrows and "Switch Accounts" (or does that sound too formal and businesslike for Friendica, perhaps "Add Profile" and "Switch Profiles" would better?).

@tealk Something like this:

As reference for anyone who doesn't have accounts on Bluesky and/or Mastodon this is what their layouts look like:

CoverPhoto Add-on Version 1.3 This is a very minor update but it fixes one little annoying issue. If you hit the "Delete" button for a photo in your profile in Frio it would add your coverphoto to the delete confirmation modal. Now it shouldn't add it to any page with ?mode=none on the end. I also updated the compatibility info in the README to reflect that this add-on works with Friendica 2024.12, 2025.07-rc, 2026.01, 2026.05, and 2026.08-dev. gitlab.com/randompenguin/cover…

@ruud @daniel I don't know of anything specifically for the next release. There was a project to allow using a Postgres database, but it never got completed: github.com/friendica/friendica… There is also an ongoing "Work In Progress" to refactor the database: github.com/friendica/friendica… The latest piece of which is draft "Proof of Concept" PR regarding database abstraction: github.com/friendica/friendica…

@wilhelm@fedia.social It would be much more common for a mobile UI on a phone to have a full-width menu like this:

@tealk IMO Friendica is overloaded. It has so many "moving parts" it's really hard to redesign it. I mean, we could get rid of that right sidebar. It already disappears on narrower screens. The "Frio" theme doesn't even have it. And/or I could selectively hide things in it to pare it down to something more like Bluesky's right-hand sidebar. I made the drop-down user menu stuck open, I could turn that back into a drop-down and move the left sidebar up.
