I love this app! I just wonder, will this app ever going open source like the others?

  • The profile settings such as NSFW configuration, work only some times
  • when adding more than one account it seems some stuff is mixed among accounts
  • need user/community block button and accessible from the list. Given how 'All' works, this is very necessary.
  • Color for op/mod/admin
  • Full length (not cropped) cards for images

Looking great so far

As the other op mentioned, no edit button Sometimes when clicking back it does a 'browser' back instead of taking you to the upper/previous level

The reply button is reversed (looks right instead of left) When you check your comments/posts on your profile it says 0 replies even if there are some

I've noticed that when someone posts a link to a community (e.g. [email protected]) it tries to take me to a user instead of a community, telling me that the user can't be found.

Loving the app so far, though!

Love the app, thank you.

I have a small feature request and a bigger one.

Small: add support for spoilers (see https://infosec.pub/post/192236)

Big: make the app handle links pointing to popular instances. For example, the apps Jerboa and Summit can be registered as handlers for the URLs of many instances.

Image/video uploading would be great.

Dark Theme isn't nearly dark enough.

List View is spaced out a bit more than necessary. Also some elements are pretty close to the left side.

I love that thumbnails are on the left side. As someone else mentioned, having this be option would be good for those that don't prefer this.

I would love Two factor auth for logging in.

The app looks sleek! great job

Thanks for the feedback! I'll add 2FA in the next release.

Hi. Thanks for the feedback! I've added 2FA support on the latest release (1.0.38)

Hello Kuro,

i may have a feature request, maybe its already on your radar, but it would be nice to see the adress of a link before clicking on it. For example, if a news article is posted it would be great, if below the image the website could be written (e.g. cnn.com)

Also, i think it would be cool, if the full image could be shown if i open the thread, without the need to open it in the built in browser?

Thanks again for your superb work, i really like your app!

Greetings Hovercat

Have just installed it and so far I really like it. I set a screen name on my account but in Connect the account name is still showing instead. It's not a huge priority but it would be good to see screen names implemented at some point.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks for taking a look and I'm glad you're liking it! I'll add screen name support in the next release.

Colored usernames in the comment section with the OP being a different color.

I opened a post up and it was like a giant white wall of text and hard to find the end and beginning of comments since it all visually runs together

I like the look and feel of it! Looking forward to see how it develops!

I can't figure out how to search for a specific community, the search function pulls up posts, and doesn't seem to do a great job of that even. That might be Lemmy's fault, but Jerboa has been good about searching for communities.

Also, for a more minor thing: I'd like if the toggle between views was more easily available. Whether I'd prefer list view or to show images depends on the community. With the Reddit app I use I can switch back and forth easily, so that's just nice to have.

Also, the font size: it's a bit large on the list view, but the comments are a bit small. Can we change the sizes separately?

Anyway, I don't wanna be all complaints, it looks good! I'm excited about it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Could we get an option to move the thumbnails to the right side of the screen?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Solid start! Questions re subscribed communities:

  1. Does Connect only display 10 communities under "subscribed" in the left-hand menu? There are a LOT of subscribed communities missing from mine. (Also, I believe that only communities from my home instance are showing up, but not 100% sure of that.
  2. Does Connect understand subscriptions to Kbin magazines that one subscribes to thru Lemmy? I don't think it recognizes my Kbin magazine subs, but I may be wrong.

Either way, this strikes me as an improvement over Jerboa, so I will be using it. Thanks for your hard work on this!

Thank you for the feedback!

  1. Currently it's 10 (just the default limit on the API call I was making), the next release will fix that (pagination and caching the list)
  2. As long as the instance you're using returns Kbin magazines when I query the subscribed communities it should work. I'm not sure how closely linked they are.
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Right on, all of that makes sense. The issue with #2 is that when I went to Kbin mags via Lemmy, the upper-right menu continued to give a "Subscribe" option (instead of "Unsubscribe" for my subbed Lemmy communities). But I think that might have happened when I'd visit some Lemmy subs as well. Either way, it's early days, and this is a great new Fediverse app that I plan to use a ton. Thanks again!

the subscribed communities issue should be fixed now in the latest release (1.0.25)
