The video in this post is showing the old zoom / rotation issues for me again. Haven't seen that for ages--don't know if it's the post or the video itself...

Just curious, why the odd formatting of this number when replying to a post?

For some reason, this post shows the url text in the main feed, but the image when opened.

Hopefully this is known about as it's hard to describe, but in the main feed I see text post previews in a mid-grey colour, and when opening them I see the full text momentarily in that colour (also with no paragraph spacing), and then it seems the style is applied and the text 'flickers'. Mostly just once, so it's not too bad, but sometimes it flickers back and forth causing quite a visual glitch.

Let me know if this is news and I'll try to record it happening.

I don't know if this is a Lemmy / instance issue, or Arctic, but I noticed that the video in this post opens as a still image instead of a video. Clicking through onto the original post plays fine.

If you touch & hold for the popup on a comment, you can upvote, downvote, save, etc. But it doesn't show the changes until you navigate away and back again.

1. Tap and hold account button in bottom bar
2. Tap currently active account
3. Swipe main feed from left to access feeds list

The app now shows Feeds at the top, the main feed on the view and freezes.

I guess tapping the current account should dismiss the accounts popup?

When opening a post from the main feed and then using the Community menu, the Subscribe entry has the wrong icon, and also doesn’t ‘update’ until you close the post and reopen it (ie it doesn’t show as a toggle, even though it does appear to function as a toggle.

Loving the new link preview position option :)

Is there space for a couple of media tweaks?

1. Images, once zoomed in, have this unfortunate feature where moving them by a few pixels brings up the controls layer, and then it’s hard to get rid of—single click zooms back to full image (which is great for quick dismiss). Maybe the controls could be completely disabled if the zoom is anything but ‘fit to screen’ or whatever that default state is known as?
2. Videos when rotated often fail to scale properly to the new aspect, getting progressively more and more zoomed.
3. Tapping a video in the feed to show it full screen leaves the playback controls visible, then another tap brings up the share / dismiss controls over the top, and then finally a third tap leaves just the video. This feels like it could be smoother—again maybe start with no controls visible?
4. Dismissing a video should probably pause playback, as it can be hard to hit the tiny pause button back in the feed.

When using Large post view, posts with a url show that url including thumbnail below the post content. But when opened, the link is above the content. I’d prefer it to be below, so that the 2 look similar—I find it a bit of a visual glitch that the order jumps. Is there a way to do that (couldn’t see one), or could it easily be added?

Seems like the default post sort is periodically switching back to Scaled. I’ve have Remember post sort set but after some time (maybe app restart?) and often when switching feeds from All to Loval, etc, it’s back to scaled. Is that a known problem?

Would it be possible / desirable to set the community automatically when viewing a specific community and then tapping Submit Post? Seems like that would be to most convenient and could still be changed if needed.
