No, in Bean. I believe they also work in Lemmios
I don’t see why it wouldn’t. I think LW is on 0.18.5, which is what I’m running and I get push notifications with no issues.
Bean is definitely one of the furthest along and is also out on the App Store. I’ve also found that Thunder is really polished and has a different take on UI compared to some of the others.
I have found myself using Arctic and Bean the most right now, but there’s really a lot of great options out there.
Would also add Arctic to the list. The dev is very communicative with his community and has been releasing regular updates. The app is very stable, even though it’s just a TestFlight release and runs extremely fast (Avelon is also very fast too).
It also has fully working mod tools now, which almost none of the others have.
They’re working in Bean
Yup, that will definitely work and sounds much more intuitive than having it as a separate item in the menu.
Yea, the webUI leaves a bit to be desired. I’m definitely up for cramming as much info into the modlog as you can. It’s not something people are browsing just to flick through and usually only being looked at for more details on some mod action taken. Showing the name of the person taking the action and an icon for if they’re a mod or an admin would be awesome! Also worth noting, the ability to see mod names is a server setting. Many servers might have it enabled so that all users can see mod names.
Ah, that’s a great one I had totally forgotten about! I don’t know if it’s possible in Lemmy, but if you can add a mod from their user profile and not have to make them make a post or a comment that I have to hunt down then that would be awesome! Right now Lemmy doesn’t support relative links (at least I don’t believe it does) so if I post something on LW or my own instance and I give that link to someone who’s a mod on lemm.ee and ask them to make me a mod… they actually need to either use the search or manually find the post / comment (either in the community or from my profile) in order to mod or unmod me since the LW or personal instance link I give them will take them to that instance… where they’re not a mod and potentially don’t even have an account.
Yup, exactly. If you long pressed on a comment it would open the context menu and perk the parent or the text of the post itself if it was a top comment (not 100% sure on the top comment one, but that would be useful regardless). I used it more than I realized and really missed it when I got to Lemmy lol
No problem, feel free hit me up with any questions or clarifications :)
No problem, Lemmy is all about working together so I’m happy to offer up any suggestions or feedback to help you out :)
For the thread nuke option, it wouldn’t need to be for a post. When we delete a post, nobody can see the comments anymore on it. It would be a context menu on a comment that has children comments (replies to it). Any comment I “nuke” that has replies would have itself and all replies to it removed (it’s fine if they all get the same removal reason or something generic like “thread nuked” or just blank reason). An example would be someone makes a really bad and rule breaking comment and others start to reply and quote parts of that comment, engage the troll or just derail into a totally inappropriate topic. In that case, that first comment and all replies to it need to go, but deleting them one by one isn’t very fast. The “top comment” isn’t always a top level reply, sometimes that top level comment is a few replies down.
The nuking isn’t a thing we need to do a lot, but there are occasional cases where it needs to be done, unfortunately.
Ah yes, you’re right, I totally missed it haha! Yup, the modlog is awesome for each community. I guess only feedback I’d have there would be to have the mod name that took an action visible in it. I don’t think it was, but I don’t want to close the reply while I’m writing it to double check :P
One other feature I remember from using Apollo on Reddit was when I opened the context menu on a comment by long pressing on it… it would show the comment it was a reply to. It was nice when reading a long list of comments, you could get a little more context if the comment someone was replying to was immediately above it (IE the reply isn’t the top reply to a comment so there’s others in between). It’s hard to describe, so I can give some more info if you want.
Will keep daily driving the app and let you know what I come up with! Keep up the awesome work!
Loving the new mod tools, excellent update! Really loving the app so far and eager to see where it goes.
A few more "really nice to have" options for mods if you are looking for more:
- Nuke thread (recursive delete), this feature is missing from the web UI so it would be super awesome if the app had it (you'd just have to recurse through the posts under the "nuked post" and delete them since the Lemmy backend doesn't have a "nuke" option I'm aware of
- Modlog for each community rather than just server-wide (server-wide one is nice too), would also be awesome if the modlog had the ability for me to undo the mod actions in it if needed. Lastly, the filter in the server modlog is missing a "show all" option.
Also, the "Open in browser" button opens the federated link and not the local one from the instance the user is on (ends up bringing you to a lot of random instances)
It also has support for mod tools, which almost none of the others have. Reply been enjoying it so far! Also a big +1 for Avelon and Bean. Looking forward to seeing how they all develop!
If you can't afford to buy the pet to start with, I'm not sure where the person is going to suddenly get money for cat food, medical treatments, toys and basics like beds and scratch posts.
That's good to hear, I'm not a huge fan of the drawer style either haha! It would probably make it easier to implement having more the two options per direction than swiping... though an app with a short medium and long swipe option would certainly be a good idea. I guess you could always have a toggle switch that would enable different modes: drawer style, 3 option swiping and then config options for each to assign actions.
I think the only thing the web UI differentiates if if something was deleted by a mod/admin and if it was removed by the content creator. It'd probably be tough to find out if it were a mod vs an admin removal as the only place I'm aware of that information is in the modlog.
Fair enough, it’s awesome that we have so many great choices right now! The apps are all maturing and gaining features and in a year I’d bet we have several very solid options to choose from.
I do keep my fingers crossed that Christian will release an Apollo for Lemmy someday.
