Thanks! I had tried a different instance's hosted version, but that would only let me log in with an account from that instance. Time to cut out the middleman!

Ah, that's fair enough. Thanks for letting me know!

 

I've searched but couldn't find any discussion on this topic, so I apologize if it's been answered before.

Would the admins consider hosting the Alexandrite and Photon front-ends, e.g. at a.lemm.ee and p.lemm.ee?

Gestures work well, too!

The one thing that has become worse for me is that the label for the username of the poster invisibly extends all the way to the right side (at least in compact mode). That sometimes result in being taken to the user’s profile page instead of the main body of the post, because I clicked the elongated username label rather than the main post card.

OP, be aware that updating will wipe your settings and you’ll have to re-do everything from scratch.

I saw that about the re-write and assumed it was the cause, but it would have been nice to be told about it before it happened…

Battery life and screen quality first and foremost. They’re often related to each-other. Battery life because I feel it’s the one aspect that hasn’t improved very much at all over the past 10 years, and if I don’t have enough battery, I literally can’t use my phone. Screen quality because I look at the screen whatever I do with the phone, so if the screen is bad, everything else cannot make it a better phone.

 

In a community feed, nbsp characters are escaped instead of rendered.

My old OnePlus 6 from 2018 also had that quick toggle. I used to be a big fan of upstream Android back in the day, but One UI is vastly superior nowadays. I find this ironic, given how bad TouchWiz used to be...

[–] Supercharger@lemm.ee 32 points 1 year ago

Yes, and they constantly change how parts of the UI work, most often getting more in the way of efficient actual messaging... It's really bad.

It's recently been bought by a generic mobile app development company. This thread has more discussion on the topic.

[–] Supercharger@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

They haven't. The thread linked is from 2 years ago.

That goes to the full search, right? But I would like the extra space for the list of communities only.

 

When clicking the Explore icon on the bottom navigation bar, the menu that pulls up only covers about 1/3 of the screen. It's enough to type a search string, but it leaves little space for the results.

I think a better use of space would be to bring the whole menu up to the full height of the screen once a query has been entered, or at least allow the user to pull it up manually by dragging it upwards

+1

This would be a great feature!

Does anyone have any suggestion for iOS? Raivo seems to fallen from grace recently.

 

Hi @evgiz@lemm.ee,

(I don't know if posting here is the most useful way to bring this to you. Let me know if you prefer suggestions to be sent some other way.)

I was browsing communities and it took me a while to find the New sorting option. I know where the menu is, but the New option wasn't there. It was only after I clicked a few different options that I realised New wasn't shown because it was already selected. I could have probably told from the icon, but in trying so many Lemmy apps recently, I haven't yet learned what icon means what.

My suggestion is that the current sorting is shown in the drop-down menu, perhaps as a checked option.

Thanks again for your work on this app! I'm really enjoying using it since I found it.
