Hi, I'm working on the next release and there's a lot of changes so rather than just release it straight away I'd like your help! Hopefully this way those that don't want the newest features can enjoy a more stable experience and those that want to play with new features can do so as well.

Here is the link to join:

edit: I won't post the release notes until it fully releases in a couple days or so so as to not spoil anything :)

Beta 80:

New: I'm seeing 301 errors on pretty much every vote/comment/post I attempt through Lemmy.world. Seems fine on Jerboa & web.

Most of my previous issues seem fixed. Probably the most pressing preexisting bug I'm still seeing...

  • ~~When I edit a long comment, I'm still seeing only the first 500 characters. Everything after that get removed.~~ It's anywhere there's a & symbol in a comment. If you edit a comment with a & in it, it gets cut off at the &.

EDIT: Here's all I see when I try to edit the comment above. Looks like just the first half of the comment...

Pushed a hotfix for the 301 errors issue (1.0.81, should be live now). And thanks for the screenshot! I'm checking it out now.

Thanks! On 82 currently...

  • 301 errors are fixed.
  • As a chronic comment editor, still anxiously awaiting the fix for comments getting chopped off
  • I like the visual tweaks on the header, but the second line often gets clipped on all but the smallest text size.

For the comments getting chopped it's the preview view not being able to scroll?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

No, when you edit the comment, only part of the text actually loads in.

So if you submit it without realizing that text is gone, you lose the tail end of the comment. (It happened to me a couple times before I realized what was happening)

EDIT: Maybe it's the "&" character that's the issue.. testing that theory.

EDIT 2: That's it! Everything from the "&" forward gets cut off.

Thanks for the fixes it got a bit better, but still has issues

Post settings (in the info you talk about cards but the title is about the generell posts?)

  • a better preview is needed inside the post best would be a Picture. It doesn't show what's happen exactly if you choose "limit Thumbails Height"
  • "Post Titles above images" should be inside Post settings because if affects the behaving

Comment settings

  • Is it possible to add comment dividers preview?
  • What exactly does "Handedness" nothing happens for me

Generell

  • If you deactivate "Bottom Bar Navigation" you have no possibility anymore to switch between, local/Frontpage/all or your subscription, I need to active it to even use the app :/
  • The version No gets cut off inside the settings
