Connect for Lemmy App

Is that still going to happen ? Or did something happen ? If not do consider open sourcing it. If you decide to make it open source that will be very much appreciated.

When I try to filter a non-English language post I've found that frequently the instance I wanted blocked is not what's added to my block list.

For example, when I try to block the following instance it's adding mastedon.social instead of OP's instance lemmy.eco.br: https://mastodon.social/users/ademir_lemmy_br/statuses/112058841341083344

Testing out I'm guessing its just one for all? Just want to check incase im missing something.

I like to have one for my nsfw account and one for my normal so i only use the right one when im in the right headspace.

When someone posts a link in their comment, there are no options to copy, share, or sometimes even just view the link (I've seen this on some images that it just opens right away on a comment without even asking me, which seems a little too zealous for my taste). This is immensely useful when I don't necessarily want to open a link in the client (I.e. copy and paste to share it or maybe I want to open it in a different app). When a user long-hold presses on a link, you should get options on how to handle it. Some possible interactions are copy, share, and open in external app

Opening a notification from the inbox now seems to go one level too far down. Ie. It opens the replies to the comment you opened, rather than the comment itself. I'm on the latest beta and this must have only just changed.

After the latest dev update on Android, while scrolling down my feed I get stuck over a post and then I'm unable to scroll up or down or select a post. The only way to get out of it is to change the feed filter like from top six hour to top hour then that will get stuck so I have to switch back

I updated to the latest beta, 1.0.175, bit this seems to have a major bug. When scrolling down in a lost of posts, after maybe 20 posts there is no more content. When this happens the app completely freezes and o have to force-quit. And when scrolling really fast through the list of posts, the whole screen turns grey and the all also freezes.

If I upvote something and then go to the comments, upon returning to the main page, the upvote is gone. However I know it's still registers because if I go back into the comments it's visible.

Hey, I only installed the app today and I'm really loving it. I've found a bug, when I switch from my account where I have set the dark theme to the light theme it does not change the theme. Only when I restart the app. It works the other way around though

Hi,

Love the app, but there are a few annoying issues I experience:

1. Inbox won't show more than 10 or so new replies

2. When I click on one with a reply it usually doesn't take me to the parent comment

3. When I click on a comment from inbox sometimes I can't see it in the thread until I click 'view full post'

I see a small + sign followed by the number of new comments to a post since i last saw it.

Could you maybe add and option to have those comments highlighted with maybe a different background son that they are easier to see/find?

I have recently had a new issue start happening.

When I get a reply in my inbox and I click on it, it loads the post but not the comment. In fact no comments at all are loaded.

Also if I find one of my own comments in my profile, and click on it, the same happens.

Is this a setting or a bug?

Is there published timeline or roadmap of when various fixes/features might be implemented? If not, would such a thing be possible?

Personally, I'm eagerly awaiting fixes to Horizontal swipe between posts and extended target areas for comment actions, and I imagine most people have some feature they would like to see implemented. It would be a nice treat to get a sneak peek behind the curtain at what we can look forward to.

No pressure though @[email protected], and thanks again for an already great app and continued development!

I've noticed that recently comnents on posts no longer have the long colored bars next to them showing their depth into the reply chain. Was this deliberately changed, and is there a way to bring it back?

I've gone through the setting but couldn't find an option to delete cache on app exit.

Is this possible? It seems like connect is generating the largest cache storage of all my apps

I've encountered two problems. How to reproduce them? Here:

1. I post a comment. Then I go back to it via my post history. I edit it and post it. Connect then can't find a comment and shows error. Pressing back returns me first to my cached unedited comment, then to my post history. After a refresh it appears edited.
2. I had answered to a comment that was later removed by a mod. Someone replied to me. I tap either on that notification or on that comment in my history and connect returns a post without any comments at all. It's that comment with Grozev's interview: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/9158971

v1.0.171

That's a 30 comment thread. The reply button disappears around 20ish comments. I'm curious if the app can even do anything to make things like this readable.

Edit: Issue resolved. Download new update of Connect, version 173

If I just swap from app to app without going to my home screen, I get a black screen. I have to got to my home screen and then back to see any content

On android, Samsung 22 ultra.

I see that the new version (1.0.171) says "now jumping to the top when doing a refresh".

For me the list gets refreshed when I open the app. So when I spent way too much time scrolling and finally stop and then later want to spend even more time continuing to scroll I open the app, it refreshes and jumps to the top and I loose the position way down. Now I have to scroll through all the posts I already saw to get to where I left off on the top today list.

Am I just using the app wrong? Or is there a way to make the app only update manually and not automatically when re-opening the app?

I'm using the connect app on my galaxy s20 FE and when I want to change the volume of a video or audio file it does nothing. what's up?

edit: figured it out. there's a setting for that. however that setting should be opt in, not default.

This has already been mentioned in a few posts with no response. You can't scroll Lemmy for any length of time without Connect crashing now. No update from the developer and the app is near unusable.

App crashing after scrolling a while. Videos, gifs, scrolling quickly seems to hasten to process. Has LeakCanary been integrated to check?

Phone: S23 OS: 13 & 14

Normally you tap the text of a comment to make the vote buttons appear, but if the comment is only a picture, clicking it will just open the picture. I've only been able to vote by tapping the username and then finding the comment from their profile. Let me know if I'm missing something.

Edit: I've found that tapping text to the right of the username (the score or the time since posted) brings up the vote buttons, so this seems to resolve the issue.

Temporarily turning off unicode filtering may work if the users display name is different. (Some users may not be aware of what is causing this problem, unfortunately.)

(Maybe putting brackets around [usernames] might allow the "blank" usernames to be clicked.)

I just noticed that you can't access any mod tool like the "mod queue" from this app. I guess it's a niche use case but it would be convenient if mods could use this app also.
