Hello,

As the TF version specifically asked for feedback on a couple of points that I’ve noticed differences, here we are.

  1. Performance: it feels less fluid than before on my iPhone 14 Pro. Not game-breaking, but scrolling is slower (it feels like it never uses 120Hz scrolling now), some actions (voting/saving) feel slower or take multiple taps to register/happen (I was wrong about this, the TF version is visibly faster than the App Store one) and I’ve noticed quite a lot of videos not loading at all (usually NSFW ones). The player becomes irresponsive and in some cases I’ve had to reload the app to resume using it.

  2. Fonts: I’m not sure if the iPhone 14 Pro is considered small, and I use the font size slider at the 3rd point from the left, but the layout is slightly different. The fonts are larger than before, but if I move the slider one point to the left, they get smaller than before.

And one extra thing I’ve noticed: there is no way to scroll back to the top of a community or feed without triggering a reload. Is this intended?

Thank you though, this app keeps getting better.

      Thank you, great to see examples! Seems like the first two videos arent actually links to videos, but custom video players kinda like youtube embed. I’ll fix it so it shows an error rather than just spinning forever!

      It’s pretty difficult to support every type of source, since lemmy basically just gives you a random URL that you have to try to understand. Its gonna be an ongoing process to support more and more websites natively, but I think the majority of video links should be working pretty well already!

        Yep, Avelon is very good already. Thank you for the great work!
