Wow it’s been a crazy month and a half of working on this. This PieFed update was a doozy (mostly due to code debt in decoupling Blorp from Lemmy), but I’m so happy it turned out as well as it did.

Try it yourself!

PieFed support is still a little experimental. I’m currently working through some issues with comment loading. But I’ve been using PieFed with Blorp for a couple weeks now, and I love it.

If you decide to check it out, keep the app up to date for latest PieFed bug fixes.

Edit: anyone reading this in the future. The NSFW issue mentioned in the comments has been fixed in v1.9.2.

Is there any way to fix the font size? On iOS it’s tiny, and I can’t find a way to make it bigger.

[–] moseschrute@piefed.social 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I tried my best to match other similar apps. Any specific elements too small, or is it all too small across the board? Did you increase the text size on iOS or is it set to the default?

[–] Nusm@peachpie.theatl.social 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

The text is just really small. I tried to increase it using the iOS system, but nothing got bigger.

[–] moseschrute@piefed.social 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Yeah. I need to add better support for system accessibility features. Would you be happy if the default text size stays the same but I respect the system wide larger text setting? The reason I ask is I think the system setting would affect all your apps, not just Blorp.

What I’m trying to get at is Blorp text two small compared to other apps, or are you a person that prefers bigger text across all apps?

[–] Nusm@peachpie.theatl.social 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I checked, and I do have the system wide text bumped up one notch. But on apps with text that is still too small, I use the accessibility menu, set a per-app setting, and raise the text to whatever I need it. That doesn’t seem to work with Blorp.

Got it, thanks! I think I know what to do. This might take me a bit of time, but I’ll find a fix

[–] Nusm@peachpie.theatl.social 2 points 3 days ago

I got the TestFlight version, and it finally updated. Now the per-app settings worked like a charm, and I can use it. Thanks for the quick response!

Oops, except replying to a message still has tiny text.

[–] Nusm@peachpie.theatl.social 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That’s awesome man, thank you!

I won't be able to get this into the App Store for a couple days, but if you want to join TestFlight, it should already be fixed.

Edit: apple might take an hour or so to approve the build. Look for version 1.9.3

[–] Nusm@peachpie.theatl.social 1 points 3 days ago

I’m in! I’ll wait for Apple to approve it and try it. Thanks for the quick response!
