Feature Request #1: Allow toggle to keep top bar visible

  • This is part feature request and part bug fix. I find that scrolling down to reveal the top bar sometimes fails to work, and it only works once the page stops scrolling. I’d prefer it come down immediately when the page shifts down and not wait for the page to stop or my finger to lift. Better yet, I have a tall phone and I would prefer it to remain visible all the time. Thus the toggle request.

Feature Request #2: Allow custom reordering of favorites

  • This one is simple. I love that we can add favorites, but I would love to hit an edit button so that little grabber icons appear and I can drag them to reorder them. I moderate a few communities and they are down on the bottom of my favorites. I’d love to be able to bring them to the top

Feature Request #3 Make Connect show in the Android Share Sheet for easier posting of content

  • Right now if I see a cool article and I click the share option, Connect does not appear in the available options to share content to. Only Jerboa has this option as far as I can tell. This would be really nice. Bonus feature is if this is implemented and takes us directly to the post sheet in the connect app, it would be nice to see if the link has already been posted and where. This is a feature on the website, but isn’t even available on Jerboa. This would help others know if they are reposting or not.

Feature Request #4: Correctly show spoiler markdown text

  • I don’t think any app shows this correctly yet. Not even Jerboa. When I make discussion posts in my community I have to put in a warning for mobile app users that spoilers will be shown to them regardless of whether spoiler markdown text is used or not.

Feature Request #5: Add mod tools

  • Options like reports, bans, post removals with reasons, mod appointments, and pinning posts aren’t available on any app as far as I know. I know this might not be on the top of your list of priorities as most users are not mods, but this would go a long way for those of us that are. Right now I use apps for consuming content, and the website for most everything else. I’d love to just do it all from Connect.

Thanks for a wonderful app! Loving it!

    First post at all here on Lemmy.

    But just wanted to confirm as an average user… Points 1&2 in that exact order would be really beneficial.

    Point 1 in particular is why I searched for a Connect community, I was going to request it myself.

    Having to scroll all the way back up to the top if I want to search or refresh home as a slight annoyance.

    Enjoying the app in general though.
