this is my favourite Lemmy app so far, it feels great!

if I may add a couple bits of feedback:

• would it be possible to select the position of the Skip Thread button? I understand that there can be at least 2 buttons down there, but it would be nice to have the flexibility.

• swipe actions in comments are great though I feel they trigger rather easily when scrolling down a thread. not sure if others have mentioned this already but maybe reducing sensitivity so the action is more deliberate could improve the experience?

• just noticed while typing this that the composer is having some scrolling issue with longer posts? I can't see past a specific point unless I hid the keyboard.

regardless, fantastic work! will there be a tip jar or some pricing model released soon? I'd love to support the app's development in some way

Changelog: July 30th

Build 2023.07.30.22.45

Smaller update than anticipated this weekend because it was pride 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ and I was out celebrating with friends ❤️

This one is mainly bug fixes but there is a big change to how I'm handling multiple accounts. States are now persisted when accounts are changed. This means if you have a certain post open, switch accounts to browse on another instance, and then switch back — it will still be right where you left it.

• Added state persistence between account switches.
• Added press and hold on the account tab to open the account switcher.
• Removed background on the card and post footer.
• Removed background from featured posts on the single post view.
• Featured post backgrounds are now based on the accent colour.
• Made the entire card view tappable, not just the title.
• Tidied up the card and single post views.
• Fixed issues with bookmarking.
• Fixed issues with sharing links.
• Fixed issues with overlapping content in the post composer.
• Changed search on the communities selector in the composer.
• Fixed a visual glitch between the composer and community selector.
• Keyboard can now be dismissed in the composer community selection screen.
• Fixed an issue with scroll to top offsets.
• Added a link to posts on the Inbox and profile comments views. Still a WIP.
• Content of comments is now hidden if removed by a moderator or deleted by author.
• Added a link to the community on the Inbox and user profile comments.
• Markdown editor is now reset when creating a post or comment.

I’m all registered for the notifications. Notify me if you dare!

Hi there! Seems like the app theme doesn’t switch automatically when device theme switches between light/dark mode (when settings for theme is set to device theme).

There's a bug that downvotes/upvotes of my own posts are not displayed correctly, even after force restarting the app/ reloading that post

Yes the keyboard appears now. Thank you :)

Maybe this is a stupid question, but what is a “parse flair”? I can’t quite figure it out from turning the setting on and off.

Changes July 27th

build 2023.07.27.16.16

• Added the ability to select a community from the post composer.
• Added a FAB to the home screen to create a post.
• Added the ability to mark a post as NSFW.
• Added loading indicator when creating a post or comment.
• Improved the quality of images uploaded. May need to reassess if servers deem them too large.
• Wrapped the Markdown accessories in a scrollview for smaller devices and future buttons.
• Shrunk the link preview if there’s no image found.
• Removed the preview from the comment composer (it may come back, I’m still deciding if I like it or not).
• Turned the fullscreen swipe off by default. I don’t like that it was changing the iOS animations due to the pan gesture handler, but the option still remains.

Any feedback on the post composer is welcomed

Comments now work in the profile! Nice.

If I may make a feature request: I think it would be nice to be able to sort comments inside threads.

Changes: July 24th

Build: 2023.07.24.23.14

In the meantime, please let me know if you encounter any issues with the Inbox.*

Just wanted to say the swipe to vote features and the haptic feedback are perfect! I think you guys have it down better than any other Lemmy app at the moment!

Looking forward to future updates. I could see this one being my main for sure!

I noticed another visual issue with the latest version. This time with the comments. Seems part of the comment can get cut off. See image.

Overall, I’m loving the app more and more with each update. At this point, I can use it to lurk without any real issues. I only need to switch to post or to comment with a photo. There are a few “wishlist” features that I’d love to see. But you’re moving real fast!

Search is now available in the latest build. Please let me know if you encounter any issues.

Testing the image feature with beans.

Still needs swipe to upvote and reply within posts.
