This update adds full support for the Android feature Predictive Back. Unfortunately this feature is only supported on newer versions of Android (Android 14 and above) so if you are on an older version of Android you will not notice a difference.

Full changelog

Fixed a bug where changing accounts will not scroll the account list to the top.
Added full support for predictive back. Note that this fixes several bugs that are only seen on Android 14.
Fixed a bug where posts/comments are saved as a draft even if they are posted/sent.
Fixed a bug on some devices where can get stuck in the compose comment screen.

Update

I found some bugs in the release so I will be releasing a small bug fix update shortly. Changes:

Fixed a bug where posts/comments are saved as a draft even if they are posted/sent.
Fixed a bug on some devices where can get stuck in the compose comment screen.

Update 2

Fully rollout of the release is now complete.

As promised, some feature requests:

When replying on the view comment reply from inbox-screen, when submitting response, the screen does not update with the new comment. This would be a nice addition to have!
When on the view comment from profile-screen, I often find myself wanting to read the parent of the active comment as well as the comment itself. Additionally, it would be nice to also be able to see 'sibling comments', other replies to the comment that this was a reply of.
When making posts under less-than-ideal clients side network conditions/unstable server conditions, the post can sometimes become many times duplicated, potentially by some retrying mechanism. This can be a bit of a mess, and it would be nice if retries were for non-mutating API calls only, or if possible from the Lemmy server's side, add idempotency so that duplicates get discarded.

Thanks again for a great app!

EDIT: Bonus - when posting, the total comment for post-counter does not update to reflect the new state/fetch the new count. It would be a nice touch to have this update.

Finally had some time to look into each of these features. I think most of these are all doable and they will all be added to the roadmap. The only one I need more information on is the bonus. Could you give a bit more information on what you mean? Thank you!

Sounds great! To clarify, each post detail screen has a 'comments on post-counter', what I noticed was that, when making a new comment on a post, this counter was not immediately updated to reflect the new post count, which should be at least (n +1) where n is the post count prior to submitting the new comment.

Ah. Got it.
