Every time I save my settings my theme UI changes or it'll work for a bit, then I close and open the application and all my settings are reset. Would love if the settings were actually saved x.x

Loving the updates!!!

For some reason my profile on lemm.ee has lost all of its subscriptions, save for one ([email protected]). Some additional weirdness to help troubleshoot:

• This doesn't affect my lemmyworld account
• logging in via web UI and other apps has my subs as appropriate
• viewing the frontpage shows properly subscribed communities
• I've tried clearing cache, storage, uninstalling, and reinstalling and the problem persists

If I can provide any more detail to help in diagnosing please let me know.

I cant find out how to display only my subscribed communities and its annoying because it keeps showing me the front page and not what i actually subscribed too.

It would be great to have some link preview when viewing a post, example screenshot.

as-is view

Can someone explain me what these settings actually do? While self explanatory, I cannot notice any difference after toggling them.

Thanks!

1. I'd love for there to be an option for some sort of persistent opaque header so that the status bar is visible/doesn't overlap text.

2. A more robust search. Some way to separate searching by post, community, instance, user, etc. It's sometimes super difficult to find the community I'm looking for, especially if the name is a word commonly used in posts

As ironic as it may be, Connect 1.0.65 (65) is unable to open this community, from the link in its settings. Also tried other ways to open it in the app, same result.

I checked that lemm.ee isn't defederating with lemmy.ca so I'm not sure what may cause this. Android 13.

Often I tend to scroll too slowly and it registers as a long press so some random comment gets hidden and I have to unhide it. Can you add an option to disable long press actions? Or it could be improved so it doesn't register if it's not a stationary press but I'm not sure whether it would work or if other people already like the way long press works.

Edit: Apparently it already registers only stationary press so maybe either an on/off switch or long press time adjustment would be good to have.

I am testing adding .svg emojis, but Connect for Lemmy doesn't display them at all

Example: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/615979

This is especially relevant when viewing communities like c/memes where I don't necessarily want to click in to read the comments on every thread, But if I open the image, I'd like the post to be considered as read so that it doesn't show up again on my next refresh.

When browsing some communities, I would notice post titles full of urls and stuff. At first I thought these might be spam or something, and then I noticed that they look a lot different from the mobile site.

Trying to post images here, hopefully this works.

As title.

Sometimes I will read a post and then save/bookmark it to go back to at a later date. But if hide read posts is enabled, you can't see those posts in your saved section/folder. You have disable hide read posts.

I am sorry if this has been asked before, but when or will it be open sourced. It is the best Lemmy Client i have used yet but i dont like anything being closed source and i read somewhere the dev wants to open source it at some point. Just interested if there is an estimate.

A popup appears saying it needs write permissions but the permission dialog never appears.

Cheers and congratulations on the appversary.

Hi, Connect 1.0.63 is our two week birthday (from this post). Hard to imagine it's only been two weeks. This version brings a lot of new things but the big features would be instance level blocking, 'show more comments' buttons to make comment views more compact, new theme options, and the ability to mark a post as read while scrolling.

What's new

• Added community icons next to names in the main feeds
• Added an option to show @instance labels on all usernames and communities
• Added instance level blocking
• Added dividers between cards
• Create post community suggestions are improved, will now autofill with your subscriptions and suggest a community you've subscribed to first
• Added show more comments buttons
• Added option to mark posts as read on scroll
• Added more theme options

Fixes

• Fixed an issue with the profile tab not refreshing in some scenarios
• Changed community icons to be smaller and they should load faster
• Added some new sort options for posts
• Fixed notification icon hopefully (no more blank square)
• Fixed swipe to reply not working from the inbox
• Viewing a comment from your inbox will now remove the comment when you go back
• Improved the tap target when interacting with a short comment
• Fixed an issue with uploading an image in comment view
• comment title text now wraps instead of getting cut off
• Improved memory usage when scrolling through a lot of images (still some more improvements coming on this one, we're not freeing up images in memory as often as we could be)
• Fixed an issue with NSFW communities not being searchable (and subsequently some link handling being broken if the community is marked nsfw)
• Fixed an issue with the search back button
• Fixed an issue with incorrect passwords if the length is more than 60 (it's now capped to 60 which is what Lemmy does).

In case you're wondering what was in versions .60-.62, they were all minor hotfixes that have been combined into this list. Also for those wondering when it's going to be open sourced it's coming, I hear you! my focus right now is on adding features and improvements.

I've hit back. I've force quit the app. But every time I open it, it's in community view as seen in the screenshot. And there's no nav on the left.

Seems like a bug to me...

I ended up updating to the newest version and then it was back at the regular home page.

Android 13, Pixel 6

I've noticed that anytime I click save settings it seems to reset a bunch of them back to the default. Namely it resets my theme, font size, and some other settings such as refresh rate and swapping comment settings. Things like layout seem to be unaffected.

Ideally there would be no save settings button, if I back out from that screen I would expect that my settings just stick without me having to push a button to commit them.

Redgif is not embedded correctly most of the videos can't play in the app.

I use Firefox by default and I want to use its webview to open the links by default to have blockers enabled and so.

Can this optionally be enabled? I don't see any option related to it.

The title is just duplicated so you have it above and below the image although you would expect only one title above the image

Edit: It's not just image posts but apparently every post.

The last times I updated the app, the settings on the settings page as well as the custom start page got reset to the default

Thanks for a great app!

Lately I have been seeing the same old posts in my feed. Because I haven't interacted with them, they stay there for me to see again a few minutes later. It'd be great to have an option to mark any post seen in the feed as read.

Edit: this dev is adding features faster than I can keep track! Thank you!

Blocking instances, marking as read on scroll, more color options, instance names next to users/communities,Top posts for last 6/12 hours and 6/9 months!

Hi there, sorry if this has been posted. Is it possible to change the options when sweeping away a card?

ideally, is like too just have hide with a small left swipe as that is the action I mostly do.

Is there a reason why Connect is not open source software unlike Lemmy itself and many more Fediverse clients/servers?
