Hands down the best Lemmy client. One thing that bothers me is that clicking on reply notifcations takes you to "mentioned" notifications not replies - is that fixed yet?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago

Yep it is fixed, I tested it with your comment lol. This is something that annoyed me too

I just made a post about this the other day. I'll go ahead and take credit for it

You have a good career ahead of you in management ;⁠-⁠)

Thanks for exists, best app I've ever use since reddit. Thank you Ruben Mayayo.

Huh, the new behavior to view/interact with images in comments is kind of weird - seems to open them in a different way compared to images in a post (external browser, I think?)

Besides that oddity it seems to be running great so far!

Pinned posts are nearly indistinguishable from normal ones once read, a little pin icon next to them like on desktop would be perfect

1.0.2 Seems to be available for beta testers now, not public yet

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I forgot I was in the beta!

[–] papalonian 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I'm in the beta but it's not updating for me, did you have to do anything specific to get the update?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

I didn't have to do anything special, but it could be a staged rollout, might just be luck of the draw

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Wishing for a way to mark as read on scroll

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Almost perfect just needs to remove downvotes on instances where they're disabled and it's perfect :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

I think I wanna join the beta, since my actual version acts weird when I swipe up to go back from a photo to the feed: it remains grayed, fully functional, but grayed

[–] RaulitoElLobito 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Why doesn't the dev post here like he did for reddit?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I might've just beaten him to the punch on this one. This update is only for beta testers. I've seen him in comments before.

[–] RaulitoElLobito 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That's not it, he's very silent on lemmy compared to reddit

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Well it's similar with sync. LJ was active on the sync community but was not active on other communities at all. I think it is more like a job for them now and that they don't particularly enjoy using lemmy
