Hello, there! I really like the overall feel of Thunder, and very excited to know that there's an iOS version as well (which I have not tried yet tho).

But I think some improvements can be made to the subscriptions list in general: when using either the compact or normal view, it's pretty much plain unless the post itself has an embedded image. And it is even somewhat hard to differentiate individual cards as there is only a (thin) line separating them and the link banner is very thick.

Just for comparison (and maybe inspiration), here is a gallery with screenshots for the same feed in Thunder and two other Lemmy clients:

Hello! Just wanted to say that it's even worse now on v0.2.1+11 when both automatic theme and use dark mode is enabled in Settings > Theming (for some reason the theme changes when the dark option is enabled).

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hmm interesting. I have not tested that specific case since the dark theme/pure black theme options should technically not affect anything if automatic mode is on! (unless there is a valid reasoning for having both of those options on at the same time)

If you just have the system theme, I think the dividers should look okay? In the future, what we can do is just disable the ability to set dark/black theme if the system theme is on

Yes, if Use System Theme is enabled and Use Dark Theme isn’t then the dividers are visible when the system uses light theme. But then they are barely visible when the system changes to dark theme. 🙃

I usually keep the manual theme set to dark because it’s my preferred theme that I want to use when I disable the option to use the system settings.

Hmm, okay! That's a valid point you brought up. I'll keep the settings enabled for now rather than disabling them, and see what can be done to help with the divider situation

Just an update: theres been a few changes that will make its way to the next release to help with divider colours! These are some screenshots of the dividers. Let me know your thoughts on this (these are with Material You theme off)
