Wondering what sets this app apart? As a user of Lemmy (and previously Reddit), I understand the importance of a perfect platform for discovering new content. That's why my top priority, from the very inception of this app, has been to showcase all content in the most captivating manner. Here's what I've achieved so far, with more exciting features on the horizon:

GIFS

GIFs will automatically play in your feed, as well as in comments. Let's highlight this aspect: all images will be displayed inline within comments and posts, scaling perfectly to fit the available space. No need to click a link to enjoy that spot-on GIF someone replied to you with!

Video’s

Lemma supports inline videos too! The app employs various checks to determine the type of post, including videos. Better yet, videos auto-play as soon as they come into view, and I've added a beautiful progress indicator, inspired by Apollo.

Albums

Whether it's multiple images included in a post or a dedicated Imgur Album, Lemma seamlessly assembles all the images into a stunning gallery view. Effortlessly scroll through each image just as it's meant to be, while still being able to view the descriptions of specific images (Imgur only).

Live Text

Of course, an iOS app wouldn't be complete without Live Text! Spot some information you'd like to copy? No problem, Lemma has built-in support for Apple's Live Text feature.

Are you integrating apollos full screen scrubbing where you didn’t have to grab an indicator?

Please add Apollo’s scrubbing, and options to toggle mute by default and toggle autoplay by default. Looks great so far!

This sounds awesome! Inline video playback and images / gifs in comments is something I’m looking forward to.

I’ll definitely need an option to not auto-play any gifs or videos though.

Great point with regards to having the option to opt-out of auto-playing, I'll make sure to add it to my list
