Though I also do some “smart” splicing to try to detect the description part and cut that out, but it can’t cover all cases.
Admiral Patrick@lemmy.worldOPto Fediverse memes@feddit.uk•As an app developer, I'm about to just give up on showing the community display names 😔English3·6 days agoI’ve been doing that for ages now: splicing it at
:
and-
and using the first array element. It’s just annoying. That, and having to watch and account for false-positives (e.g. X: Files, Self-Hosted, etc). And some places it makes sense to show the full name, but it often still gets truncated in CSS depending on device width. Plus, some community display names don’t use that format :(Was trying a different approach this time around, and it clearly didn’t work out lol.

If you did, I didn’t see it lol. Didn’t add this feature until late yesterday evening (was already planned), so I’m not sure why it didn’t show up.
