Evening all.

I've created a status page to monitor all services I maintain to run Sync for Lemmy.

There's not too many at the moment but will keep updating as I create new APIs etc.

Cheers, Lj

Hey everyone.]

So update 98/99 has gone live which fixes the crashes (thanks for the reports).

I'm gearing up for a pretty sizable release but just wanted to check in and ask if there was any issues you're having that I should know about or any new feature requests.

Sorry for the bad comms but I'm making my way through lots of messages and posts on here. Thanks for the patience as I get through these all.

Cheers, Lj

Idk why it stopped working but it did. I tried clearing the cache and turning the setting off and on again. It still doesn't work.

Since yesterday, posts and comments have stopped showing vote counts. Is this a bug with Sync or did I press something I didn't mean to?

I was looking through my Pi-hole logs and a strange URL is regularly coming up that I can't figure out what it is used for.

Does anyone have any insight?

Posts aren't marked as read on secondary account (feddit.org)

I added a second lemmy account to Sync and on that second account posts aren't marked as read after I opened them. Sometimes they get marked as read after a reload, but only sometimes.

Is that a bug? Is there a solution?

Newly posted comments displaying in wrong position on comment tree (midwest.social)

Hey all, just ran into this this morning, I was replying to a comment and it showed up at the same level as the comment I was replying to until a refresh. I'll see if I can reproduce it for screenshots in a bit. Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me so far?

I noticed with QPR3, the back gesture in Sync now shows a black screen during the animation.

Could this be fixed? I read it'll become default in Android 15.

Comments on posts in home instance not showing up (lemm.ee)
submitted 1 month ago by [email protected] to c/syncforlemmy
5 comments fedilink
 
 

On posts that I access through my home instance, i.e. any post present in the "Your local instance" feed, nothing appears in the comments section apart from the message "There are no comments", despite the UI suggesting that there are several.

When accessing the post's permalink in the web UI of the instance, the comments show up without issue, even when logged in.

To reproduce, log in to sync with a lemm.ee account, switch to local feed and click on any post that appears to have comments. For example: https://lemm.ee/post/35476369

For some reason I haven't been able to replicate this on any other instance (tried with .world and .ml, both of which don't seem to have this issue)

Hi there,

It seems that my midwest.social account has stopped showing the upvote count on posts and comments sometime over the last few days. My Lemmy.world and lemm.ee accounts show them fine still.

Ive tried logging out and back in and still no dice.

Anyone else having this bug?

Samsung Galaxy S24, latest play store build.

Anyone having a new issue where swiping from the left to go back to the thread list from a thread doesn't load properly and instead shows a black screen for a second or so.

Screen recording: https://imgur.com/a/bvzkyfu

All animations in the settings are enabled.

Sync Bug? Most posts are not marking as read (lemm.ee)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by [email protected] to c/syncforlemmy
7 comments fedilink
 
 

Recently I started noticing that a lot of posts will mark as read for a second then go back to unread when viewing just the image or article. It's not all posts though and I haven't determined a pattern yet, but opening the comments seems to mark as read on refresh even though the post looks unread before refreshing.

I'm on version 122 of Sync on Android.

Links no longer showing as read after viewing comments/image (lemm.ee)
submitted 1 month ago by [email protected] to c/syncforlemmy
8 comments fedilink
 
 

Starting yesterday, when I click a link to view the image or comments, the link doesn't appear "read" when I go back to the feed.

I know Sync hasn't updated, but yesterday I updated Chrome and rebooted my phone, in case that's relevant.

I keep clicking the same posts over and over and can't use Hide Read option to only see new stuff.

I can't see what I'm typing in landscape orientation. I type in landscape 100% of the time.

This is not happening on every post, but I'm seeing "There are no comments" more and more on posts where there are comments. The comment counter in the example pic shows 8. And I know there is at least one (I made a comment).

Any ideas?

Edit: I did try clearing cache and storage with no effect.

How can I see totals per up and down vote in sync? Right now it combines them.
