The mod created Free Compliments and Fat People Hate. The juxtaposition. The dichotomy of man.

Yeah, that is one feature I'd like to see - links opened in-app. I'm sure there's a way to request features.

It's a reply to my other comment haha. I edited my comment here like 2 seconds before your reply came through to reflect that. Still good for anyone this far down that missed the reply. 😁

I'm not sure I fully understand the question, but maybe using Obtainium and pointing it at the developers' GitHub? It'll download directly from the source that way, including updates, etc

[–] OverfedRaccoon 5 points 2 years ago

No worries! I just started using Obtainium recently, so I wasn't sure if it was me - but it was the only app doing that after a new update. Glad it was easily and quickly figured out! 😊

Install F-Droid from the official site (should be an APK - it's safe), and, from within F-Droid, you can install Neo Store. Then you can use Neo Store to access F-Droid stuff. Just make sure you stick to official/trusted repos, and you should be fine. I mainly use the Play Store for stuff, but sometimes the updates drop faster on F-Droid (or there's a handful of FOSS apps that aren't in the Play Store).

Mine won't seem to update beyond 0.0.6 in Obtainium. It sees the update, downloads, click Update, and bam, still 0.0.6. Even tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Same thing.

EDIT: Dev is aware of the issue.

[–] OverfedRaccoon 8 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Slightly off topic. Obtainium sees that there's an update to 0.0.7, but can't seem to update 0.0.6. It downloads, tries to update, and boom - update available, with currently installed 0.0.6. Uninstall, reinstall, 0.0.6 again. I guess that's just an Obtainium issue. A little weird though.

I keep trying new Lemmy apps. Some are very good, polished, and will work for most people. No disrespect to any of the third-party apps - I keep rotating between a few to see which I'll end up using most. Not knocking any of them. But I just keep coming back to Jerboa. Usually, the third-party apps will just be missing that little something. And on the rare occasion I feel like Jerboa needs a feature that another app already has implemented, bam, it's in the next update (such as DMing users in this update). Not here to suck on that Jerboa peepee, but just wanted to say thanks. With all the appreciation posts going around for the new hotness apps, there's still some of us that appreciate the classic and all the work put into it by the various contributors.

This is the feature I was going to request. My main account, I like to sort by Hot, but my alt, I like to sort by New. It'd be nice to have it do that per account rather than app-wide. I think a good way would be in the left panel, where you can set (for example) Frontpage as default, the ... you click there, have there be sort options as well.

Update fixed it, thank you! That was fast!
