These threads used to be really useful back on Reddit.

I'm currently finishing off full app translations for the next release along with lots of the usual bug fixes.

What should I prioritise next?

Cheers, Lj

Sometimes, when scrolling, I get "Your filters have blocked all the posts on this page" or "You have read all the posts on page 17" or whatever.

The pop-up gives either a "Next page" or a "Retry" button (IIRC). When I press it, I'm able to continue just fine.

Can there be a setting added (or something) that just auto-presses that button for me? I'm cool with just scrolling forever, and it seems a little silly that I get stopped by that prompt but pressing 1 little button fixes it.

Does the floating navigation bar exist on the Lemmy app? I feel like I had it at one point but I could be mistaken. I love being able to just from parent to parent comment on some threads.

Just want to make sure you're aware of this: https://discuss.online/post/1294119

I cannot connect to discuss.online as a home site from Sync at the moment, though I can browse it from other home sites. It is not an issue unique to me. The admins of the instance have come to the conclusion it is a lemmy/3p client issue rather than an instance issue, and that clients it breaks now will break more completely with future lemmy rollouts.

Got it thanks

It looks to be an issue with using the backend 0.18.4-beta.8, ever since my instance updated to it I haven't been able to use Sync either

For us perverts it would be great if the Redgifs audio issue was fixed.

It also prevents sharing the actual redgifs link easily cause you need to open it in the browser and then share the link. Otherwise it shares the API link.

It did work as intended on Sync for Reddit.

On behalf of all the perverts out there, how about a toggle filter for only showing NSFW posts. Would be nice for...ahem... "discovery" on the everything feed.

Assuming it's not already possible that is.

Change logo to indicate the lemmy connection..This is not at all a serious request, just a personal request fuelled by OCD to get everything as connected as possible.

[โ€“] Zeragamba@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

I'd like the option to exclude a community from an instance filter. There's a community I'm interested in in an instance that is 90% garbage.

If a subscribed community could bypass the filters, that'd be fantastic

[โ€“] NewPerspective@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Shouldn't this combination of settings result in a red preview? Or no preview? Currently it still shows a blurred preview.

Please make Sync compatible with Lemmy v0.19. lemmy.sdf.org updated to v0.19 and Sync no longer works for me. I'm having to use a different app in the meantime.

Full immersive mode for non Samsung devices, or transparent navigation bar for those of us who hate gesture navigation.

Being able to rotate or mirror an image.

An option to have separate up/down vote buttons

[โ€“] swiftcasty@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Collapsing entire comment threads. It can be hard to read the top-level comments in each thread when you have to scroll through. Being able to collapse a top-level comment and all replies to that comment in one button press would help with this.

Am I missing a easy one-button to crosspost something from one community to another? If not, then that would be pretty handy.

I know there's share, and I love how much flexibility there is in the share button already, but as a bit of a noob a simple one button crosspost button would be nice. Especially if it has some automated best-practice type settings for the message and media like linking to original post, maybe tagging as a crosspost etc.

Bit of a noob, and even on Reddit was a long time lurker so I always get a bit anxious at how I should be crossposting "correctly".

You could even sneak in some tagging or a formulaic note in the messages to make it easy for Sync to merge duplicate posts found on multiple communities.

I'd like the ability to open an account in a different window. Like how you can long press on a community and it opens in a new window, but with for accounts. Would make it easier than switching accounts and losing your position

I have "hide read posts" enabled on the Lemmy side, through the desktop page.

When I go to my profile on Lemmy's website, I don't see any posts I've made (which makes sense, I've read every post I've ever written), but I do see all my comments in the comment section of a read post.

For some reason, on Sync it doesn't show the posts or the comments. My profile is completely empty unless I go into the settings on my Lemmy instance and toggle the "hide read" setting.

[โ€“] ljdawson@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately I can only show what the API returns there.

Option to choose between the regular and dark mode icons

Is there a way to create a community? I don't think I've seen a way but I haven't done a thorough deep dive

[โ€“] shrugal@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thank you for your great work! :)

The one issue I have is that the text is very small while composing comments, and I haven't found a setting to change that.

Here is a screenshot.

Ok this kinda works, ty!

But there still seems to be some issues with the relative font scaling. I have to crank up the base font size quite a bit in order to get a decent size for the editor, but then fonts are huge in all the other places. It can be fixed for posts and comments since they have their own options for it, but not for UI elements like the settings menu.

I think what's missing is a dedicated setting for the editor font scaling, or making it the same as post/comment font size.

I can't find a way to fully collapse a comment, it always collapses only the children, is there a way to change it?

Not a terribly important feature, but I'd like to be able to create multiple instances of a view type, each of which has its own configuration, and be able to switch between them with a quick action.

My phone is so wide that it's difficult to hit the thumbnails in the list view when I hold the phone in the opposite hand (right hand with thumbnails on the left vs. left hand with thumbnails on the right). This feature would allow me to quickly switch the view :)

Small thing but I'd love some metadata about the comment or post when I'm replying. Things like the time it was posted, username and maybe even subreddit with the instance. The full thread for nested comments would maybe be nice but maybe the ui for scrolling through that would be messy.
