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

+1 to instance wide blocking, it's a feature that is sorely needed.

That said, it's on the lemmy devs' road map so idk if you'll want to wait for that... But I'm not sure when they'll get round to building that feature.

Is there a link to the road map?

Is it possible to add an option to remove the notification bar at the top of the screen when scrolling? Basically full screen when scrolling.

There used to be a Reddit app that supported this but I forget which.

I'd love to be able to adjust line spacing in the body text of posts, like I'm able to do for the comments. Also, now that I'm writing this, I'm noticing that it would be nice to have that in this reply composition screen too. But maybe I just haven't found that one?

Am I missing a easy one-button to crosspost something from one community to another? If not, then that would be pretty handy.

I know there's share, and I love how much flexibility there is in the share button already, but as a bit of a noob a simple one button crosspost button would be nice. Especially if it has some automated best-practice type settings for the message and media like linking to original post, maybe tagging as a crosspost etc.

Bit of a noob, and even on Reddit was a long time lurker so I always get a bit anxious at how I should be crossposting "correctly".

You could even sneak in some tagging or a formulaic note in the messages to make it easy for Sync to merge duplicate posts found on multiple communities.

Search function. I get this. I cannot search remote instance toast whenever I try to search

[โ€“] Tagger@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

How feasible would it be to create toggle-able filters. e.g. I could toggle a sports team community when I haven't seen the result of a game.

Would be nice to be able to see a single comment thread for any given comment, not only when coming from profile comments section.

[โ€“] sfgifz@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

It would be super helpful if we can hide entire instances from showing up at an individual level. For e.g. I see a lot of posts from feddit.de - I don't have anything bad against the server or the users, but the posts there add no value to my experience and fill up my feed with content I'll simply not understand. It would be a better UX to be able to hide these without having the home instance and other users on it be affected by your preference.

[โ€“] mom@nom.mom 2 points 2 years ago

Is this what you're talking about?

Settings shortcut: Filters > Instance filters

(Looked like someone else told you another way to get the same effect, but this way you can input any you know of without having to wait to see the posts. Maybe?)

An option to disable the toast 'you are hiding everything on page 6' and just continue on anyway, without needing to press retry.

[โ€“] lustrum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Would like an "overview" when going on mine or someone else's profile so posts and comments are mixed. Saves me clicking through each and giving better context.

Thank you for this amazing app! I'd like to be able to download images to my Downloads folder. I'm on Android 12 and currently I cannot select it. It shouldn't be an issue since newer Android versions don't even require write permissions for that.

[โ€“] jayandp@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Any progress on WebM support? Not sure about other instances, but mine converts GIFs to WebM by default when I upload from Sync. But posts with WebM just act like still images in Sync, and tapping on them just leads to a button to open the WebM in a browser.

[โ€“] Siethron@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I haven't seen other people report this, but for me if you click on comments then hit back it won't take you to the page you clicked on the comment link from, but rather the previous one. So if I was on page 2, go into comments then click' back' I'd end up on page 1.

[โ€“] Moreless@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

A little icon on top of thumbnails to show the image:

  1. Is a pic

  2. Is a gif

  3. Is video

  4. Redirects to a website

Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, have an incorrect setting, or if this is expected behavior, but the thing that's been driving me nuts is when I go to share a link it always copies the source of the post for the lemmy link.

If, for example, I'm browsing on lemmy.ml and I want to share a post from lemmy.world, I'd like to be able to copy the lemmy.ml version of the lemmy.world post.

It doesn't make as much sense with public instances, but when you're using a private instance and you want to share with friends and family it can be kind of a hassle to retrieve the URL for said private instance.

[โ€“] lemmyingly@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

User mentions doesn't appear to be working for me.

Someone mentioned me a couple of days ago and it never came through. Could it be an instance thing?

I am still not able to see media from "files.catbox.moe"

If no content found on default sort, automatically fail over to a second sort selected by the user.

I.e add a toggle that allows "if default is top 12hrs but no content found, load content from new."

[โ€“] opponent019@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I have no idea how this works so hopefully this isn't too wild but it would be neat to be able to use the app with kbin (a kbin account from a kbin instance, not just look at kbin content is what I mean)

Edit: nvm i see someone else already suggested it and you responded, should've checked first
