Known Issues (In progress)

There are a few bugs still that we’re working through and we really appreciate all the support from the community helping us Beta test. Here are some of the known issues we’re working on:

  • User and community link opening within the app is finicky #107
  • Separate default comment sort from default post sort
  • New sort in community page’s posts sometimes not working properly
  • Unclear usage of everything feed causing seemingly duplicated posts across the difference instances.
  • Check here for a full list

    If you’re using the everything view from the home feed then you’re going to get posts that you might not be federated with, an aggregate of any instances you’ve added to the app.

    We’re working through tweaking this view and making it smarter to be able to support that interaction. Also I’m not sure thunder actually can do that because im thunder you’re seeing comments/posts that are “outside” of lemmy.world but you’re accessing them through lemmy.worlds federation.

    Long story short if you want it to work like thunder, just use the Lemmy.world -> all feed on the home tab and you’ll still see those posts that are “outside” you’ll just be seeing them through Lemmy.worlds federation

      I think it would help a lot if it defaulted to [email protected] as calling it “All” which is the same as it’s called on any lemmy instance when logged in is super confusing. They are not the same thing.

      Perhaps rename Liftoff’s All to “All@notloggedin” or non-interactive. It’s not intuitive and didn’t make sense in the app settings either; I had to read your explanation here to understand.

      Otherwise, Liftoff is great. Thank you for working on it.
