What Android app would you recommend for PieFed? (piefed.zip)

Tried Connect since I used it for Lemmy, but no luck, keeps giving me "The page your browser tried to load could not be found" error when I try to log in.

Has anyone had success with other apps?

Blorp dev here. let me know if there is anything I can do that would make Blorp you’re favorite client out of the bunch.

P.S. sorry if I asked you that already. I kinda chaotically reply to comments mentioning Blorp

Hi, thanks for all your work. Blorp is my second favorite client right now, it's really good already. I keep coming back to Voyager mostly because I'm so used to it.

Some things that could be improved in Blorp on Android:

Option to adjust the font size of body text (it's a little bit too small for me right now)
Highlight color with more contrast (Purple on black is a little hard to read)
Swipe gestures (my standard setting in other clients is swipe right to upvote, swipe left to save)
More PieFed features like merged crosspost comments would be nice

Jump button for comments that jumps instantly (like Red Reader)

Ability to turn NSFW masking off for feed, or at least not make it two taps to open the full image AND demask it.

Redgifs internal feed integration

Have recent subs be account-specific instead of shared. i don't want to see a NSFW sub on my main.

Cross posting + cross post comment combination.

Maybe some more themes and customization like ability to create custom sub combos from the app (or whatever it's called on the fediverse, on reddit it is a multireddit)

Please and thank you. A+ app name BTW. Love that it is on F-Droid.

I'm working on the comment jump button already. Here's a little demo if you wanna try it on web, but it's still pretty janky. It's to the left of the community sidebar on desktop.
comment-jump-button.blorp-6rm.pages.dev

NSFW is something I'm actively working on, but I'm not really sure the best way to solve it. I wanna be very careful that I don't show anyone NSFW content they didn't mean to see.

Here's some ideas:

Remember when a user has already unmasked a specific post so they don't have to unmask twice.
You're unmask an entire community is not a bad idea
I suppose if you click into an image, it should unmask. But I will probably make it so if someone sent a link to the image already expanded it would remain masked. Just to prevent someone direct linking you to NSFW content without your consent.

Open to whatever other ideas you can think of.

The button is getting there! Doesn't always respond but usually.

Ideally it would be an account profile setting toggle like Reddit's app. To be clear I think masking is a good feature. I want it for my main, but I would want to turn it off for my alt though.

I'm missing the bell feature to be notified of new posts or messages. Is there a plan to add it?

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

I’ll see if I can get that added. Track progress
