These threads used to be really useful back on Reddit.

I'm currently finishing off full app translations for the next release along with lots of the usual bug fixes.

What should I prioritise next?

Cheers, Lj

Double dipping with the answers, but it would be awesome if we could toggle filters on and off. My list of filtered communities is enormous (40+ just for various sports teams I don't care to see on the everything feed), but if like to sometimes disable all filters just to see how the standard experience looks.

I imagine a toggle for each filter category (instance, community, users...)

There are two horribly synergistic bugs on my favorite NSFW instance, lemmynsfw(dot)com:

Sync's community filters don't work on that instance, and that instance's community blocks don't work either! They're not related, I'm sure, but when both are broken I see things I can't unsee.

I built up a huge list of community filters in the app, and then one day realized not a single one was working. Not even if I cleared the whole list and added just one filter. Refreshing didn't help. Nor did clearing the cache. At least, I think I tried that.

And, for some reason, Blocks don't work on that instance either, but only when requesting my feed through the API. Blocks do work on the website itself. But that's not your issue. That's theirs.

Please make Sync compatible with Lemmy v0.19. lemmy.sdf.org updated to v0.19 and Sync no longer works for me. I'm having to use a different app in the meantime.

Not a terribly important feature, but I'd like to be able to create multiple instances of a view type, each of which has its own configuration, and be able to switch between them with a quick action.

My phone is so wide that it's difficult to hit the thumbnails in the list view when I hold the phone in the opposite hand (right hand with thumbnails on the left vs. left hand with thumbnails on the right). This feature would allow me to quickly switch the view :)

Sometimes images don't allow me to resize them. Closing and reopening the image fixes it, but I don't know what causes it initially. More a minor annoyance than anything, but I still wanted to bring attention to it since I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere.

[โ€“] ljdawson@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Do you mean when submitting an image?

Sorry I should have been more clear. When opening a posted image, I won't be able to pinch to zoom or double tap to zoom. Swiping to close the image won't work either. I have to tap to close then reopen and everything works like normal. Again it only happens rarely and I can't cause it to happen on purpose. No idea what causes it.

Shouldn't this combination of settings result in a red preview? Or no preview? Currently it still shows a blurred preview.

I'd like the option to exclude a community from an instance filter. There's a community I'm interested in in an instance that is 90% garbage.

If a subscribed community could bypass the filters, that'd be fantastic

[โ€“] asdfasdfasdf@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I noticed that saved items are ordered by their post date, not by their saved date like on Reddit Sync. This makes it super hard to find the latest ones you saved.

Could you add this please?

Sometimes, when scrolling, I get "Your filters have blocked all the posts on this page" or "You have read all the posts on page 17" or whatever.

The pop-up gives either a "Next page" or a "Retry" button (IIRC). When I press it, I'm able to continue just fine.

Can there be a setting added (or something) that just auto-presses that button for me? I'm cool with just scrolling forever, and it seems a little silly that I get stopped by that prompt but pressing 1 little button fixes it.

[โ€“] swiftcasty@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Collapsing entire comment threads. It can be hard to read the top-level comments in each thread when you have to scroll through. Being able to collapse a top-level comment and all replies to that comment in one button press would help with this.

I have "hide read posts" enabled on the Lemmy side, through the desktop page.

When I go to my profile on Lemmy's website, I don't see any posts I've made (which makes sense, I've read every post I've ever written), but I do see all my comments in the comment section of a read post.

For some reason, on Sync it doesn't show the posts or the comments. My profile is completely empty unless I go into the settings on my Lemmy instance and toggle the "hide read" setting.

It's a small QOL suggestion, a "Previous" and "Next" comment button when traversing through comments. I used to use RIF prior to coming to Lemmy Sync and always liked being able to jump from comment to comment.

Full immersive mode for non Samsung devices, or transparent navigation bar for those of us who hate gesture navigation.

[โ€“] zpiritual@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Small thing but I'd love some metadata about the comment or post when I'm replying. Things like the time it was posted, username and maybe even subreddit with the instance. The full thread for nested comments would maybe be nice but maybe the ui for scrolling through that would be messy.

[โ€“] crawley@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It seems like a lot of images and gifs on Lemmy are hosted on catbox.moe and exactly zero of them ever load. Any chance of adding support?

[โ€“] ljdawson@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Still having this issue?

[โ€“] Zolidus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Hide NSFW doesn't work anymore. Only blurs.

[โ€“] metalmirror@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 1 year ago

On behalf of all the perverts out there, how about a toggle filter for only showing NSFW posts. Would be nice for...ahem... "discovery" on the everything feed.

Assuming it's not already possible that is.

[โ€“] Merritt@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

A setting to hide posts that I have voted on. I miss this from Reddit.

[โ€“] Draconic_NEO@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I think that getting support for 0.19 working is a bit important now, since many smaller instances seem to be taking the plunge and upgrading to the beta, so being able to login and support lemmy instances with the new auth protocols is very important.

[โ€“] Blizzard@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

@ljdawson@lemmy.world hi! Late to the party, but could you fix spoilers to align them with Lemmy's format?

[โ€“] xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink 3 points 1 year ago

Having webp images/animated images show up in the post feed without having to click on the image

[โ€“] adventure@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Allow users to switch accounts when making posts or comments instead of having to go back to the home screen

Would there be a way to implement a meta reddit style setup?

[โ€“] N1NJ4W4RR10R_@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

2 old features I liked from the reddit version. Probably going to be quite low priority versus some other things, but they're the missing things I'm noticing most.

  1. The little "next / previous comment" arrows. Worked very well for skipping comment chains when you're already a bit into them.

  2. The little "+#" count next to the total comments to show how many new comments have popped up in a post. Combined with the unread comment dot it made keeping track of new comments on a thread I liked nice.

Does the floating navigation bar exist on the Lemmy app? I feel like I had it at one point but I could be mistaken. I love being able to just from parent to parent comment on some threads.

I'd like the ability to open an account in a different window. Like how you can long press on a community and it opens in a new window, but with for accounts. Would make it easier than switching accounts and losing your position

Sync doesn't seem to format post titles which have links, which breaks the titles of posts made from mastodon ( since the hashtags are in the title).

Just added support for this ^

[โ€“] tangentzeroee@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Is there a way to create a community? I don't think I've seen a way but I haven't done a thorough deep dive

[โ€“] gabriele97@lemmy.g97.top 3 points 1 year ago

An option to have separate up/down vote buttons
