A community for the mobile app Connect for Lemmy.
I updated to the latest version being on beta channel and some comments in threads look like having 125% size of letters compared to others. Idk if that's some option in settings (I've not found one) and I don't see some systematic rule of why it happens.
edit: added screenshot, first comment is of different size to the next one, changing font size settings keeps the difference
The font size was increased slightly app-wide, I think to address readability that someone raised. There are a few settings that you can adjust. The first is the "Text size option", which you'll find by scrolling down a bit on the Settings page. I think bumping it down to 0.875 will bring it back to the old font size. You may find that makes the comment text size smaller, which you can change by tapping on "Comment Customization" in Settings. There's also a text size adjustment for post titles in "Post Customizations."
That's my experience with list view though. If you use card view, I'm not sure if they were different.
I added a screenshot to the post body. Only within comments there is such inconsistency as some appear smaller than others for whatever reason.
ed: Like, that comment of mine has lower font size than yours.
That one comment in the screenshot does have a smaller font size. I don't think I've seen that, at least that I've noticed. I opened that post on my phone and the comments all seemed to be the same size. I think we're using the same font size settings as well so I'm not sure why the variance. Just to confirm, you're on v1.0.275?
0.275 right.
Maybe my MIUI hecks it up, but it's the first time I see it anywhere.
If Connect is the only app you noticed this then it may not be the launcher. I've sometimes seen font size issues after adjusting the text option setting but that gets resolved after reopening Connect.
Does the issue occur every time or just sometimes? Also, are there other posts with this problem?
It seems to happen only in Connect, in every post without any common cause I can point on.
Perhaps some combination of settings is behind this. What are your text option, post, and comment text sizes? It looks like 0.875, small, and small, but just to confirm. Also, you've tried forcing closing Connect and reopening?
I opted out of beta and made a complete reinstall, now from public channel, still v 1.0.275 tho. No settings changed, and I still see this weirdness.
It's not a big deal, I'm more curious about wtf happened there on my phone and probably help debug it.
Maybe the dev might have further questions but yeah I'm not sure what it could be in this case.
I suppose there are some OS-typical settings for basic things and the way MIUI manages them stirs the Connect's dev wrong, this app doesn't get right info or have a wprkarpund to work with it. Idk.
