Connect for Lemmy App

I've been making use of the "hide above posts" button liberally, it helps when I scroll past a bunch of things and consider them read without actually having to click on them, but ive noticed that on later veiwings or even a refresh I keep seeing the posts from the same communities as well, idk if its just not saving the hidden list when I close the app or what, any fixes?

Right now there are three feeds available to me, that, as far as I can tell, I have minimal control over.

It'd be rad if there was a way to add feeds, and for each feed, be able to manually select communities I'd like to see.

This would be great for news, porn, sports, pornography, adult content, and so much more.

I haven't seen any comments by them in over a couple weeks.

I've had this happen a few times now. I type up a nice post, then add a URL in the "Post URL" field when I'm done, and it deletes everything I've typed. Infuriating for longer text posts... anyone else have this happen?

I want to set up a filter like *bot to filter out any posts by bot accounts, is there a way to do this?

Upvoting a post in the list of posts, and then opening the post: the upvote is not showing, and I have to upvote again.

How to replicate

• Browse the list of pots
• Upvote a post
• Notice the post is upvoted
• Open the post to read the comments
• Notice the post is no longer upvoted
• Upvote the post again

Just sharing this particular merged PR in the Lemmy backend in case this affects Connect.

Hi, currently using the app for the first time since Jerboa is getting buggier every update.

This app has the look and feel I like. But I can't seem to find an option that the Frontpage is loaded by default when opening the app.

I don't care about all the random active instances. I'd like to only see what I'm subbed to.

Is that possible? And if not. Is it something that can be implemented?

Thank you!

Can we get the ability to zoom with 1 finger? Currently only double tap and pinch zoom are supported. It would be awesome if we could double tap, hold and then drag vertically to zoom in/out.

I don't have a big phone, a Pixel 5, so any comic/meme/image with text needs to be zoomed in to read. Having to pinch zoom back and forth 8 times just to read a 4 panel comic is frustratingly tedious.

It can be a pain to wait for the left drawer to reload every time I enter the inbox. Accidentally signed myself out today because it shows Sign Out instead of the normal options. Can you please fix this @kuro_[email protected] ?

Btw: I absolutely LOVE this app. Have been using it for months and have pointed out any issue i have had. The fact I haven't made any posts is a testament to how much the app truly shines in day-to-day use.

I have an active post in vscode right now, which I made in browser, but cannot see anything when viewing the community with Connect. Any ideas?

I see the option but I want it to be a toggle like sync or eternity. Is that possible?

Often when I want to find a community, I'm just using the search function. It's great that communities show up, but why can't I interact with it? There are no options and it's just a list, but a list is pointless if you can't do anything with it. Maybe tap could take you to the community and there could be a dropdown to subscribe? This is a rather frustrating user experience as I was used to just typing a community in the rif sidebar and getting to the community I wanted.

The trending communities bot started using spoiler tags and it broke connect. I'll try to put an example here:

Basically it only shows code not the formatted version when inside a spoiler tag.

I put Connect in the Secure folder in Samsung Knox and when I download a picture it can't be found anywhere withing the Secure Folders files or gallery.

If I swipe a comment to the left to reveal the upvote, but don't fully swipe it and instead swipe back to cover it up, the upvote action still happens.

This bug seems to be present everywhere where swiping items is possible. I keep dismissing things accidentally by attempting to cancel an action!

Another feature: to mute notifications about replies of a comment, or disable the mute, on demand. thanks.

I want to block slrpnk ? beehaw gets filtered instead. See the gif

Wherever I upvote a post and then refresh, it completely disappears, even if I go to that specific community.

I don't have "Hide posts on view" or whatever turned on so I'm not sure where this setting is because I'm not even viewing the post - I'm just upvoting it.

If I go to "about community" in a community, and I tap back (to close the "about community," from a UX perspective), it leaves the community and goes back to the previous view. This is the same behavior as if I tapped back while viewing the community.

In my opinion, it would be better to make back close the "about community" view and return to the community.

I have the toggle 'High refresh rate' disabled, if that is of any use

it does it sometimes, not always

Posting this hoping the Connect dev can see it.

In the list of posts, we can see the comments icon, followed by the number of comments, and then something like (+5) if there are 5 new comments since our last visit.

Is it possible to change the color of these new comments in the comments list? It would be much easier to find them that way.
