This is really promising! Obviously missing some major features, but damn is it sexy. When we can comment and vote on comments, this might already be good enough to be my main Lemmy browser app. Great start!
Missing menu option:
If I disable the “Create post” floating button, I can still create a new post from the menu.
If I disable the “Reply” floating button, there is no menu option (or any other way) to reply to a post.
Blocking communities doesn’t work.
I also wanted to test if I can block users, but no menu shows when I press the three dots in the top right in user profiles (the settings button on my profile works).
Edit: also, there’s a visual glitch when scrolling to the top of a profile: https://streamable.com/j10p8g
Hello. Me again. I’m on the latest build, I believe. A couple more notes and thoughts.
-Love the ability to hide read posts. But is it possible to disable the feature inside communities? In other words, they would be hidden on the main feed, but if you click into a specific community, your read posts would not be hidden.
-Long community names seem to cause a visual issue. See image.
Would it be possible to make the color thread-lines thicker? I can not really make differentiate the different colors as of now!
Hi again, thanks for your work, the app is getting better on each release. I found something else: the voting bar on the last comment is being hidden by the bottom navigation bar, so I can’t vote or comment on it:
Thanks for reporting! I’ll fix this and the issues with dark mode tomorrow 😊
Fixed, thanks!
Also, for some reason, if I try to scroll to the bottom of this post, the app exits without any error prompts:
Can you test this one on the build I’ve just pushed? I have worked a lot on the comments to fix a memory leak and the order issue.
No sudden exits so far, thanks!
A new build (2023.7.19.22.28) is rolling out to TestFlight now.

If I want to reply to the OP-Post I can’t swipe it but have to press the little speech bubbe/ comment count.
-
it would be a nice QOL feature to open posts by clicking anywhere instead of the headline only (card layout).
-
I can’t see my comments in my own profile (maybe .world problem).
-
I can’t find the button to create a post in a community
If I want to reply to the OP-Post I can’t swipe it but have to press the little speech bubbe/ comment count.
You should be able to press the floating action button in the bottom right to reply to the post.
Comments on profiles is in the known issues list along with new posts.
I’ll look to improve the card layout soon.
Thank you. Relaunching the app got me the floating buttons. Haven’t seen them before.
Posting comments will be coming in the next build. This comment was posted from Bean 😁
There doesn’t seem to be a way to refresh the profile tab.
Some links have way too long of a preview. Is there a way to cut it off? This is on the feed.
Wow, looks good!
Wish list:
- Swipe right anywhere on the screen to go back. Not just from the left screen border. (This is what made Apollo spectacular)
- Change font size: being able to have HUGE fonts would be nice, not just kind of large (as like now, only tiny).
- Tap comment to collapse it and all below.
Thank you.
Can the card view be the default view when the app first starts? So much of the content is visual and the compact view doesn’t do that any favors. Even in the card view some images are clipped more than I’d like. Tapping each post as you scroll by certainly is taxing.
It should remember your selection, is it not doing that?
It does! I just meant imo that should be the default and one should have to choose the compact experience.
