Hi Boost gang,

The first version of Boost for Lemmy is almost ready. If you want to test the app for bugs and give feedback before the app is published, follow this link https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.rubenmayayo.lemmy to enable an early access option on the Boost for Lemmy Play Store listing.

Thanks for your patience!

Is is possible to opt out from comments notification on own posts? I didn't find the checkbox as I used to have in the old reddit app.

Thank you! you have done an amazing job! ๐ŸŒท bought the app right away. Not a bug but a question / request : will you implement a 'History' tab in the sidebar, like there was in boost for reddit? I find it very useful having the ability to scroll through posts I've viewed but not saved.. especially after nights my mind wasn't so clear.. Thanks again rmayayo! ๐ŸŒท

I also can't seem to press and hold on taps for images when in the full-exapanded screen

Wondering if you plan to add swipe left from the right side of the phone to go back to the last/prior comment page

Thank you very much! I used Boost for Reddit, which was amazing, and I didn't use any app for Lemmy until this was released.

Is it possible to get an amoled dark theme? Thanks for all your hard work!

It looks like the "c" community links aren't working. Like this: /c/boostforlemmy@lemmy.world.

The Trending Communities posts are full of these if you need more examples (here's today's post).

Edit: weird, my comment links aren't working. They're showing as normal text for me, but when you go to copy, select text, you can see that they're hyperlinks.

Images are able to be posted in comments. Ability to press and make them bigger would be useful.

Understood would be difficult with the press to collapse feature.

I have never used boost for Reddit but I am posting from it right now and first impressions are IT IS AWESOME! An easy ad free purchase from me!

[โ€“] ilikemoney@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Only issue I'm having is random timeouts, but I think that just a lemmy thing in general. Nice app

So far it feels solid to me. Thanks so much for your hard work

I don't know if it has been posted. After try many lemmy client its end to sync and boost.

But compared both apps there is one difference that I feel, scrolling performance is better on sync. On boost feel little bit lag/stutter.

Else just customization like other comments mentioned.

I hope it will be fixed in next build.

Thanks for build great apps. ๐Ÿ‘

It's a great start!

Should old boost users who have paid for boost for reddit, get the premium by default??

[โ€“] monsieur_habibi@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago

+1 This shouldn't even be something people need to ask.

But I'm assuming that this is the first version so maybe the dev will make it happen in an upcoming update
