Button to return to the top of feed? (self.liftoff)

Not necessarily a button, just came to mind first.

Noticed a moment ago after blocking a community I’m not interested in seeing, there was no quick and easy way to get to the top menu to refresh the feed. A button or pull down method to quickly return to the top of a feed, or just show the top bar quickly would be nice!

Tapping home in the bottom bar to reach the top would be nice.

This please

I swear it did for like a day, I could have sworn I saw a post about that update. Maybe it was a different app 🤷

That's how I'd like it to work too, it makes sense.

Mine only says open in browser and Nerd stuff when I just tested on the lemmy.ml feed

Edit: If I'm on the home and click the lemmy.ml logo in the tab to view the instance then there is no scroll to top option, but if I click all instead then there is the option to scroll to top.

+1 for this solution or tapping twice. Because of some reason I'm already doing that. Even though nothing happens.

The three dot menu in the top bar has a scroll to top button in it

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

'Back to Top' . As you said, it exists

[–] tophneal 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

My issue was that I couldn’t see the top bar without scrolling all the way to the top. I’ve since seen it slide down without having to go all the way back up, but I can’t figure out how to get it to show on demand

What version are you on? Once you begin to scroll up the nav bar will show

[–] Stormlight 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Version 0.10.7 I also do not see the three dots nor any way to go back to top once I have scrolled a bit

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This doesn't happen for me either, same version. It'll kinda try sometimes, partly scrolling into view. It doesn't properly interact with scrolling until the top

Small scroll up, at max half a post, usually pulls the menu down for me to see the 3 dots and be able to refresh or goto top

[–] RisingGrace 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

If you do a small scroll up (like a 2cm drag down on the screen if that makes sense) the top bar should show and the three dots menu has a back to top button. I'm on 0.10.7 of liftoff

[–] tophneal 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ah! Thank you! Tried it out and got it to work each time. I think I couldn’t get it earlier bc I was dragging too far or not far enough

[–] TurnItOff_OnAgain 1 points 11 months ago

I've notice you need to "flick" it instead of hold, drag down, let go.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

@starlinguk OP is using Lemmy. I agree this is a nice feature on kbin :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

I am glad that my difficulty in getting registered on lemmy instances led to trying out kbin early. It really does feel a lot more polished currently, and I still get all the lemmy content.
