Things I Like:

  • The new icon and color options are cool!

  • Multi-communities!

  • Still love the sepia theme and comment cascade color options.

  • The gif scrubber is always super helpful, and it feels a bit more tuned now and not so sensitive (some short gifs before were really touchy to scrub).

  • Hide Read button on Feed.

  • I’m not sure if it was present before, but the Mod, Admin, Dev tags are very nice.

  • Switching icon left/right/none and thumbnail size options for Compact View.

  • The Tap to Collapse toggle can be set to only comments. I like this because I never really need to close a post and accidentally close it trying to click a link in the post.

  • The Lemma scroll distance was a fun little finding.

Things that didn’t work:

  • I could not logout of my account. I added a second account from another instance (I didn’t see a toggle to switch between, I think it just logged in “overtop” of my first account). I was able to remove the second account, but when I tried to logout of the original account, the Logout button didn’t log me out. [cue Sword Art Online - “Guys…there is no…Logout button…”]

  • Directly clicking the link/image from the Feed sometimes only marks it as read and does not actually open the post or link/media.

  • I think the No Subscribed in All option resulted in not loading my Subscribed posts at all. All and Local worked, but Subscribed only loaded when I disabled the No Subscribed in All toggle.

  • Switching to a sort other than the default for the Feed switches right back to the selected default sort.

Things to maybe change:

  • Please please add text size options, at least for comments and posts’ text.

  • Disable Hide the Scroll Bars while in the menus. Sometimes I need to pull down quite a bit to get them back to exit the menus.

  • With Show Username at Top disabled for posts, they disappear from comments as well.

  • The Search is generally very nice and actually finds things I’m looking for. I think the filters could be a bit more clear though. If possible, maybe add No NSFW as a filter; because even with it de-selected, there are NSFW results that appear.

Thanks again for all of the work that goes into this. It always amazing me what people like you can accomplish to share ideas and experiences with each other. Or cat memes or whatever ya know. This update makes it by far one of my favorites to use.

    Great to hear! So far I find it very wholesome how the whole Lemmy community is doing its part to try and improve the platform 🥰

    A few hours ago I pushed an update to TestFlight which includes a few new features and a bunch of fixes (including the image clicking bug). Hopefully that’ll be approved soon by Apple so that it’s available for everyone to download :D
