This seems to happen only if you hold the icon for a little while. It's the default behavior for iOS (it enables you to swipe to select an option) so not sure it's possible to avoid unfortunately.

I've noticed this for ampersands too, but wasn't sure if it was an issue on my end or some encoding thing in other input forms or the backend itself. Seems to be the same in the regular web frontend for instance. Hmmm

Hmm, that's weird. How many subscriptions do you have? Works consistently for all my accounts, so not sure what could cause this. Please let me know if the issue persists!

Have you checked out the "reduce white point" option in accessibility settings? Does that improve things or is there still too much contrast?

[–] evgiz@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hmm, yeah would probably be useful to have it there too, but don't wanna remove the markdown highlighting either. I'll have to think about how it could be implemented in a nice way. You can always just swipe the reply sheet down and then select what you need since the draft will be saved meanwhile

IMO the most important thing by far is making the core app experience as solid as possible. Things like post feeds, comment sections, posting, sharing, image viewers, inboxes, replying, editing, text selection, user profiles, swipe gestures, searching, font settings, sorting options, display options, hiding read posts and everything else you'd expect takes a lot of time to develop, maintain and polish. The vast majority of my development time is spent on improvements, bug fixes and new features for everyone, and I really do care a lot about creating a great experience that can help improving Lemmy overall. Offering some more niche nice-to-have features on top of that is a good way to support everything else.

I'm not going to add a higher tier - as I briefly mentioned in an earlier comment my goal is rather the opposite. If Lemmy keeps growing, Avelon Pro could at some point make sense as a $5-or-something one-time upgrade. Unfortunately that's just not the case right now.

I posted a reply to your post about that, its a bug with an accessibility setting in iOS. Forgot to include the fix in 1.0.7, but you can resolve it for now by disabling "Button Shapes" in the iOS accessibility settings.

[–] evgiz@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This issue should be resolved now in 1.0.7!

[–] evgiz@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I've added a text selection tool now, available in 1.0.7!

[–] evgiz@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah this bug was pretty weird. Fixed now in 1.0.7!

[–] evgiz@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah you're right. Forgot to include this fix in 1.0.7 (sorry!), but will include with next version. For now the issue can be fixed by disabling "Button Shapes" in the iOS accessibility settings.

Looks like discuss.online is using Lemmy v19 RC2 (which is still in beta) so if there are breaking changes there, that could be why. I've already added support for v19, but that support was based on RC 1.

You could try to remove and add the account again if you haven't tried that yet, but if it still fails I'd recommend using a stable v18 instance for now. I'll take a look at adding better error messages to the login screeen to make it a bit easier to find out what's happening.
