It's not showing up on the Play Store when I search for "lemmy", "thunder", "thunder lemmy", or even "thunder for lemmy."
I wonder if there's some metadata you can add to help with search visibility? Or does it just take time for their search to index the app?
Hmm, that's weird because it's now not showing up for me either, even though I installed it that way an hour ago. ๐ค
Did you install it via a direct link like posted above though?
No, I searched for "thunder for lemmy" and it was the first result.
This and Connect seems to be the best ones currently for Android from the limited amount of time I've been using them...
At first glance, the design overall is more Material You in Thunder, however it lacks support of high refresh rate
Great work!
Is there a reason why in so many apps (this was the case on many Reddit apps as well) the thumbnails never fill out the entire actual available space in compact mode? Why do they have to be so extra tiny when there's so much empty space left?
It's compact mode. The images are compact.
The images don't have to be more compact than the minimum available space of the rows. That's stupid.
I read your comment wrong
Edit: I just checked and the images are tiny, i'd file a bug report
Hopefully ios will get a final release soon too. I love how quick Thunder is on my iPhone utilizing 120hz.
I like it! Just needs, mark read after scrolled past a post.
This and a FAB or a quick way to hide read posts.
Great for me so far, except I'm not liking the last comment in a thread being cut off.
The box for typing comments is also a bit weird, as is attaching photos to posts.
Just downloaded and commenting from it! Buttery smooth experience till now. Feels like it will become my favorite Lemmy client
If I originally downloaded and installed from GitHub, do I need to install the Google Play instance for Thunder to automatically update?
You would have to uninstall and reinstall it if you want to switch between the GitHub and Play Store versions!
Thank you! I will do that, only because I like the automatic updates vs pulling it from GitHub for each new version
Is there a difference between the two?
The store appears simpler than manually finding, downloading and installing from gut.
There shouldnโt be any functional difference between the two! The only thing right now is that pre-releases/nightly builds are only available through GitHub
Congrats on the Play Store release! Thunder is a fantastic Lemmy app, and is progressing along blazingly fast!
I think this is the best Lemmy client on Android so far, but the font kinda throws me away. I wish I could have the OS font instead of a different one.
How do I delete my comment?
