It's still a bit confusing to me, but I'm already starting to like it here. Especially with the Jerboa app.

reddit also was confusing 13 years ago :)

I opened an account on lemmy, yesterday, and it looks nice, very promising. If we were 10 of thousands it would be even more great. I also installed Jerboa on my cellphone and it's good beginning, it does the job

If you find a way to collapse/expand comment threads with Jerboa, let me know! It's the main thing I'm struggling with right now, but should be a easy fix.

You can hold the space between the username and the upvote / comment age, in the middle top of the comment.

Awesome! Is there a way to turn it into a single tap instead of tap and hold?

[–] XLRV@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

I don't think so, there's not many settings in the app right now.

Thank you so much! Not knowing about this had been been making reading larger threads like this one fairly cumbersome.

[–] XLRV@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

No problem 😁

same here, hopefully the dev of the app reains active

[–] borari@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

The dev is @dessalines, who is also a dev for the lemmy project so the odds are pretty favorable he'll stay active.

I'm really wishing for a way to disable not just the visibility of the score, but also the upvote/downvote buttons, and even the reply button, like I can on redreader for reddit. Sometimes I need that to get myself to stop spending too much time/mental effort on social media sites.
