Connect for Lemmy App

Currently have to open them, but would be nice to able to skip a step.

Saw this with my @mtgzone username. Problem with that instance or with Connect app?

Revealed spoiler text appears at first to be blank. Highlighting reveals that it's there, just the same color as the background.

Edit: this is in 120

Ive recently been sorting top 6 hours but I was curious if there's an option for top 3 hours? I know that's just getting more granular, but not sure if it's a lemmy thing or an app thing.

Cheers!

Would it be possible, in the formatting bar below the text boxes, to have a button that will automatically create a link to an instance or communities? (And usernames now that I think about it?) I keep forgetting and having to look up the exact formatting for each of them. Thank you!

Before update 1.0.124 turning off that setting removed the side/ hamburger menu.

Would it be possible to have a feature to 'freeze gifs' in user avatars. As you can see from this example it can be really distracting. We've all seen what signatures and other cruft look like on other forums- see Ars technica etc.- and I am in the camp that anything that adds cognitive load but isn't part of the post or comment should be minimised.

Thanks

I was trying to find the comments I've saved on the Connect app, but the Saved tab on the left navigation rail only seems to display saved posts; not comments. Is there a way to view saved comments in the app?

Update: It seems the comments are actually there under Saved. However, when I sort by "new", newly created comments appear after posts for some reason. I have to scroll ALL the way down to view the saved comments. This seems to be a sorting bug.

The swipe controls seem to be gone or are not being registered, but only when viewing the Frontpage, Local, or All. The swipe controls work correctly when viewing a specific community.

I tried going through the settings and disabling other swipe controls, but the behavior remained constant.

Edit: version 1.0.123

Please make a right handed mode. Reaching the far left corner to upvote gets really tiring really fast.

Also another thing, when there are multiple images linked in a post connect seems to load the first picture just fine however the other ones are loaded with a grey backdrop. Please fix.

Connect is the only Lemmy app I have installed that doesn't have a Subscribed feed. And the current default feed isn't even close to the Subscribed feed.

I know there were complaints about how the back button made the app behave but damn don't I miss having it open the drawer.

I been using the app all summer and now it's programmed in me that back button on main = drawer, instead now I'm closing the app constantly.

A setting for back button behaviour would be great, that way everyone can customize however they want it.

Also a padding setting for the swipe area to open the drawer would be great.

Being new to Lemmy and Connect I love the ability to block a community with one click. Could the the ability to subscribe to a community be under the ellipsis on the feed post along with block?

Thank you.

This appears when I try to comment on hexbear.net via Connect. I can comment just fine via browser.

i saw those in the settings for post sorting, and was wondering what they even do lol

Because I just found it, and it works great.
Now, what do you want to be noted as?

Edit: there's already a setting for it, another user pointed it out. Ignore me :)

~~Currently, when you block an instance or community, it's blocked app-wide. I had blocked various NSFW communities and instances on my main account so that they don't show up in my All feed, but now I can't access them from my NSFW account unless I use a different app to do so, or repeatedly unblock and reblock them as needed.~~

~~Can we instead make block lists on a per-account basis (or have the option of account-associated or global blocking)?~~

I don't think this actually updates the post's read status to Lemmy, so might just be a little UI bug.

Could you please consider to let the navigation bar at the bottom go into autohide while scrolling down and let it reappear when scrolling up?

Basically, the title. When opening a photo with my phone in landscape mode, frequently the bottom 5-10% of the photo is clipped off, and I cannot scroll down or zoom out to view it. Oddly, if I zoom in enough, then I can scroll down to view the clipped part.

I've only noticed it when my phone is rotated in landscape mode, so I'm not entirely sure if it's limited to that mode, or if a tall enough picture would cause the same thing in portrait mode

Hi

I've got multiple Lemmy accounts. I wanted to remove an account, so signed out of it.

This resulted in an empty account UI, no three dots to switch to an existing account, I had to close the app and start it again to see the account menu and then select an existing account to get it to work.

This is on the latest beta on Google Play

Currently, looking-tap behavior hides the comment. This should enable text selection instead.

Additionally, the comment hiding should be a visible option of its own.

1. Let me explain. When I enable the ratio of votes I can fully understand what's going on, however when I click it to make a vote it won't be counted (I checked it via browser). Furthermore, if I use swipe, it works, but opening a post after voting won't show me my vote, that's odd. Hopefully, it will be fixed.

2. I consider it as a UI glitch. I use the bottom navigation only mode. When I'm on the main page and tap the main tab it shows me animation as if I were going back from somewhere instead of showing the updating page animation.

Thank you for the great app! I use Pixel 7, Android 13
