Is there a post right handed mode for upvote/downvote?

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's just on comments I think as I've got that enabled. I'm more looking for posts

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Weird because when I enable it, I get it on the right for posts and comments

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You're right, I'm half asleep. Thanks!

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

No problem mate, we're here to help each other.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Testing something, brb!

[โ€“] cephus 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Probably wrong place to request or mention this but special character like + should be allowed in username field, as it's valid for emails.

[โ€“] ljdawson 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fixed for the next release

Is it possible to upload multiple images? I can upload one image in a post, but can't embed images in the body or a comment without receiving an error ("Could not upload image.")

[โ€“] ljdawson 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

These errors come from your instance I'm afraid. Uploading too many images (even just more than 1...) can cause this.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Ok, thanks for the reply! I've been using Sync for a decade, and it is by far the best app I've used. Thanks for all your work porting it over to Lemmy!

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is it possible to have seperate counts for upvotes and downvotes?

[โ€“] ljdawson 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've added the percentage of upvotes to downvotes for the next release.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's a bit too complicated, no? I mean is there a reason for going with that instead of two counts?

[โ€“] ljdawson 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

After it releases let me know what you think. This is a little cleaner

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Sure, I'll reply to this comment

Bug report: Sharing comments creates reddit links for some reason (couldn't find a way to report it in app)

Are the spoiler tags supposed to be working properly with beta 29? I don't see any mention aside from one comment 2 weeks ago... Even longer ago on the github open issues page, so I was just wondering. (Usually spoiler tags are there for a good reason)

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This does feel a little overlooked. It's a top QOL feature.

[โ€“] ljdawson 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Excellent! I'm looking forward to the update - excited to watch the app develop, too. Thanks for all your work!

[โ€“] Ejh3k 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Weird thing that I noticed making my first post, keyboard was keyboard only. Didn't have an option suggestions and didn't have any autocorrect. Only time I've encountered that issue with this keyboard that I've been using probably as long as sync for reddit. Which was a while.

[โ€“] ljdawson 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fixed for the next release.

[โ€“] Ejh3k 2 points 1 year ago

Dope! Thanks!

[โ€“] NickCudawn 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Same, but only in the Title field. For the rest I'm getting full keyboard functionality.

I keep getting Error Loading Page 400 over and over

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thank you!

I am not getting notifications for messages and replies. Is there a setting, that I am missing or is this not yet implemented?
