(Guys i’m not a developer, post your thanks and request in the group😅)

Thanks. I’d not heard of Connect before, but it’s so exciting to see so many other great apps under development. It will keep us all on our toes!
You are not stripping spaces at the end of login names in your app (sorry to ping you here but saw your reply and it reminded me to ask)
I couldn’t get logged in to connect, or liftoff, then noticed I had a space (From selecting the suggestion on my phone). Didn’t catch it until just now trying to login to liftoff. I’ve seen a couple complaints about getting logged into these apps. Wonder if I’m not alone with the extra space.
Thanks for Connect! It’s great to have multiple options.
Was having trouble figuring out how to collapse comments… Finally stumbled on pressing and holding. Maybe this will help someone else using Liftoff.
We’re making it a simple tap in the next release so don’t get too set on the long press :-)
Great! Was driving me nuts 😅. Awesome work, loving the app so far.
This is how I have it in boost, comment controls (vote, reply etc) hidden by default, simple tap to show/hide those controls, long tap to collapse comments.
That’s an interesting combination, thanks for mentioning it.
Any chance you can add swiping to hide posts once you’ve read them?
It’s so handy to be able to refresh or come back later in the day and see totally new posts.
Thanks!
We’ve got an issue logged for this. We need to do some thinking first though :-)
It did, and thank you!!
After downloading it and using all afternoon. Love it my only comment on the UX
- lines between cards on the dark amyloid theam.
Thats it. Otherwise it is pretty nifty.
I cannot comment on a lot of stuff i can with jerboa for some reason. It throws “you are not logged in there”
Last update (v0.0.36) broke lemmy.world log in due to LW stuck rn in Lemmy v0.17 (instance owner said it didn’t support 2FA yet, so he’ll wait for it being supported in future lemmy updates)
Fdroid possibly wink wink
The link works for me, but for some reason I can’t find it when I search for it in the Play Store? I tried “liftoff”, “liftoff!” and “liftoff Lemmy”…
I had to search using:
Liftoff fediverse -reddit
Had to add the -reddit to keep the reddit apps from junking up the results.
Having the same issue.
I installed it via the link in the top, couldn’t find it in the play store either.
Yeah, I had the same issue. I ended up having to open the link from the Jerboa app, which takes you directly to the store page on the Play Store app.
I couldn’t ether, it might have something to do with it being early access and/or just realised.
This is a pretty nice app! I especially like that it shows me content from multiple Lemmy instances, without my home instance needing to federate with them!
I have some feedback, though: when I see content from lemmy.ml, the app should use my lemmy.world account to vote and comment, as if I were viewing that instance through lemmy.world. It really defeats the purpose of federation if I can’t use the same account, after all.
I second this, intensely! It’s very silly…
Is making an account on every instance a thing that should really be done?
Fundamentally, I think it doesn’t really matter. But as the first commenter said, the point of federation is that you only need 1 account on 1 federated instance to interact with everything. If the app doesn’t let you do that, it’s just defeating the point.
I love that the screenshots are of the poop post
I’ve got it installed via github but it doesn’t show up in the search in the playstore for me

The app looks great but I am finding that I am unable to participate in discussions on instances that I am not logged in on. Am I doing something wrong?
Check the feed dropdown at the top of the page. If you’re using …@your.home.instance you should be able to interact with everything you see. Using the everything feed or any other instance feed may well show you stuff you can’t interact with.
That helps! Also I was clicking on the community/poster name to respond instead of clicking on the comment section at the bottom of the card.
Oh, thanks for mentioning that. It’s really helpful to understand what different users’ expectation are in the app.
i have also experienced this and, being that i am still very new to lemmy, this has caused me to register accounts on a total of 3 instances.
in fact, i am still quite unclear about what the expectation for normal functionality should be. ❔❔

I love it so far, thanks for your hard work making the migration from Reddit easier.
One question, Im trying to send my friend a link to am article a post is looking to. The share button exports the lemmy link and not the actual article. If i click open in browser, it opens the federated instance hosting the article (kbin in this case) and not my browser, so i still have no way to copy the link right to the article. Any ideas.
Again, thank you
Signing in to first account only let me use email not username (lemmy.world) second account attempt to add (beehaw) produced an error. Android, Google pixel 6 pro. Didn’t really want to post here in your launch post but couldn’t find a place to enter bugs.
I think beehaw is having issues
LOVE LOVE loving the UI
Really nice, but I’m wondering about some choices
Why “everything” exists?
I thought All meant that, while Local meant your instance only and Subscribed is whatever you are subscribed to.
Also, this seems to lead to some issues interacting with other instances overall. I can’t subscribe to an instance while looking at everything, even tho it is federated to mine.
I can see why the devs did it this way Maybe organization and all? But is it not defeating the purpose of the Fediverse?
