If you don't scroll fast enough, your initial tap to scroll will also vote on posts

A few times lately someone has replied to me and I click on their comment in my inbox to reply back. It takes me to the thread, but only shows a parent or sibling comment, not the reply that was in the inbox. But if I go back to the inbox and click on their profile, I see the comment in their history.

Most recently, this happened to a comment from Azzy@beehaw.org. They sent me a reply telling me about a containers plugin in Firefox and I just want to reply back thanking them for the tip.

Is this a real bug, or is it an artifact of how some instances are not federated with others?

Edit: Link doesn't seem to lead to their account. Am I linking it wrong?

Hi there!

I'm using connect for lemmy and one thing that bugs me is when using the WebView instead of an external browser. It somehow makes the scrolling way too difficult (you have to really exaggerate your movements to actually scroll).

Can this be fixed?

The workaround for now is enabling the external browser to open links.

I really like the app though!

Cannot post any comments whatsoever, I get a "language not allowed" prompt. What am I doing wrong here?

It'd be better to be able to track the bugs and features being suggested in a real issue tracker. The Lemmy format isn't a great place to track and organize these suggestions.

If you want the app to remain closed source, you can create a GitHub repo with a README.md, and simply use its issue tracker. There are a lot of options, but this is a popular one.

Is it possible to not "hide the read post" while visiting a community? I prefer the read posts hidden from the front page, all and local but not on the community wall or search. Any way to achieve this?

Is there a way to have a swipe gesture that dismisses an image after clicking on it, like an imgur like? Looking to replicate the swipe behavior of Relay for Reddit. Thanks in advance for any tips/advice!

I've been having some minor issues with comments. Once a comment thread gets longer than 3 or 4 comments, accesing those deeper comment chains becomes very inconsistent/impossible. The "view more" button to see the rest of the comments will sometimes just disappear or do nothing when pressed. When accessing deep threads from my inbox or profile it will start at the top of the comment thread and fail to load/access the deeper comments, including the comment I used to navigate to that thread. Has anyone else had similar issues or found solutions?

When the side bar is visible in the left of the screen, if I tab the back button, the app asks in I want to quit. Instead, it should close the side bar first, then ask if I want to quit if back is tapped again 👍

When I open an image, the image moves up or down on the screen before stopping in the middle. It would be great to be able to disable this. Thanks!

I often follow a web link and then click on another link on the web page. When I swipe back, I expect to go back to the original web page, but it goes all the way back to Lemmy page where I started.

I am using Google Pixel 6, this is only way to go back, so not sure if this is unique to Pixels.

Hi, updated the app and tried again but "download" does not seem to do anything, or at least I cannot find the pictures in my gallery. Does the download folder have to be configured somewhere? Couldn't find the setting. Thanks!

When typing replies the text box does not scroll down as you type. So after a few lines the text starts getting buried under the keyboard. You can't even manually scroll down the page to bring your typing into view.

For me, this renders the whole app useless.

Even at the "larger" size I have to squint to see the comnents. Way too small.

Downloading several very large images crashes the app. You might want to check filesizes and if a file is too large try to get a thumbnail instead. Then download the picture when the user selects it.

You can get a content-length from the http server.

Hi, apologies in the long delay on this release. It took a couple days for Google to approve it and it went through a number of beta rounds before the bugs were ironed out. This release brings swipe customization and a couple new settings. As always thank you everyone for your feedback!

Changes

• Swipe customizations
• Comment navigator now moves to where your previous comment was and not centered
• Image caching should be a bit smarter now and release memory when not in view
• volume navigation now defaults to OFF
• edge to edge display now defaults to OFF
• Image close gestures can now be controlled in settings
• Post card layout UI improvements
• Added setting for double tap to like posts
• Post card is now affected by the 'handedness' setting
• The list of moderated communities now shows up in the sidebar
• Adds list of Admins/Mods to the about instance and about community pages
• Current Sort title text is now in the tertiary theme colour to make it stand out a bit more, removed 'via ' text.
• Added option to see full upvote and downvote counts on post cards
• The top app bar should now appear sooner when scrolling up
• !community markdown now correctly links to a community
• Card view with height limited will crop the image versus displaying the image fitted to the container

Also I'm testing out a fix to some comments not appearing on 1.0.109 beta, let me know how that looks. Next on my list is either drafts or an improved video player.

Edit: 1.0.110 beta changelog

• Adds draft functionality for posts and comments
• Adds video player for most video types (still experimental, working out the bugs on this one)
• Fixed going into comments from the inbox not scrolling the view

• Google play

I have a one plus 8t, and I've noticed that instead of controlling my volume, the buttons will scroll through comments

When I select Frontpage, I see all sorts of communities, but I would expect it to show me just the communities I subscribe to. Can anyone tell me what the Frontpage is actually showing?

Alternatively, how do I see only posts from the communities I subscribe to without having to individually visit each one?

I was looking at a post when I noticed duplicates of a comment. Viewing the thread on mobile doesn't show the duplicates so I'm not sure if the duplicates were deleted and not shown on mobile or if Connect is creating the duplicates. At the time of posting this, the duplicated comment is with the Capricorny90210@lemmy.world handle. This is on 1.0.106.

Screenshot

I was reading a post and tapped on the first link in the opening post and it sent me here for some weird reason. Not only is the post number off, the instance is entirely different. This is on 1.0.106.

I've just noticed I'm not seeing all the comments, I noticed on a post in Games which showed 24 comments but I could only see 9. Looking at it on the Lemmy website I can see one is posted from a different instance and I can't see that or the replies in Connect.

Here is the post https://lemmy.world/post/2246509

My account is on Lemmy world which is where my Connect is signed into.

Maybe I've just not figured it out, but it's there a way to navigate the subs on a different instance without switching accounts? Like going directly to linux@programming.dev?

Example, I'm on lemmy.ca but I want to subscribe to /c/linux on programming.dev. I'm struggling hard to navigate to this community, as it's not turning up in search either.

Edit: I found it on search, but it's made worse by the fact that search is not showing the instance of the communities, so you just end up with a bunch of communities and a subscriber count based on your local instance, which means pretty much nothing

I mean the thing that shows up to right side of the screen when scrolling. That would be nice to have in comments view to give visual information on how many comments left / total.

It might be useful in debugging too as you can see where it jumps when it glitches --> extra info for bug reports. Seems like kuro already fixed one comment section bug (long threads glitched) but still occasionally feels bit glitchy.

especially with all of the connectivity errors as things ramp up, it is very frustrating to write out a long post and then lose it when you submit it because you get some random error and have to try and remember everything you just said.

when posting or commenting you should stay and edit mode after hitting, submit until you get the confirmation of a successful post.

popping up which specific error you're getting is already happening and will be very helpful if things need to be edited as well.
