Don’t know if I’m being really dumb, but I can’t find any way to post to a community. I can reply to comments, but not actually make a post. Also, the search tab has no search box, but is just an empty page with the word “Search” and no way to actually search for anything.

Feature Requests
I'm currently open to feature requests. Please use the [Feature Request] flair in the title of your post so I can keep track of them.
Read the known issues in the megathread post you are replying to. It is not yet possible to create posts yet. Search is not supported either.
When creating a new post, for some reason it says “2m from now”.
Since Steve is amazingly adding more features to knock out our requests, I’ll add more requests.
Can we get collapsible threads?
Thanks.
Refreshing too fast and too frequent when filtering the read posts.
The list keeps shifting up and down when scrolling and looking at posts.
I recommend that you filter on user’s manual refresh, not do this automatically.
There doesn’t seem to be a way to refresh the profile tab.
-
If I want to reply to the OP-Post I can’t swipe it but have to press the little speech bubbe/ comment count.
-
it would be a nice QOL feature to open posts by clicking anywhere instead of the headline only (card layout).
-
I can’t see my comments in my own profile (maybe .world problem).
-
I can’t find the button to create a post in a community
I’m on lemm.ee and also can’t see the comments on my profile.
New post creation has not been released yet.
If I want to reply to the OP-Post I can’t swipe it but have to press the little speech bubbe/ comment count.
You should be able to press the floating action button in the bottom right to reply to the post.
Comments on profiles is in the known issues list along with new posts.
I’ll look to improve the card layout soon.
Would it be possible to make the color thread-lines thicker? I can not really make differentiate the different colors as of now!
Search is now available in the latest build. Please let me know if you encounter any issues.
Doesn’t appear to do anything for me. I’m on lemmy.world - might be an instance issue.
Can you double check you're on the latest build? It should show a screen like this.
I like it more with each update, but it still crashes on my iPad 7, iOS 16.5.1, after 5-10 min.
Oh, that’s no good! Is it happening when performing a certain action?
Seems to happen just scrolling the feed. Goes blip & im back to my Home Screen. I like what you’re doing, I’ll keep using it.
Comments now work in the profile! Nice.
If I may make a feature request: I think it would be nice to be able to sort comments inside threads.
Blocking communities doesn’t work.
I also wanted to test if I can block users, but no menu shows when I press the three dots in the top right in user profiles (the settings button on my profile works).
Edit: also, there’s a visual glitch when scrolling to the top of a profile: https://streamable.com/j10p8g
I’m encountering a really weird problem while testing out the image upload. When I compose my reply, it looks as if everything is fine. However, my comment is repeatedly getting published to the wrong post once it actually goes through. I went ahead and deleted the comments once I noticed but I’m including a screenshot of the post it got published to. It looks like one of @infinite_zero’s test images also ended up on that post?
I thought it might have been a reloading issue after switching accounts (from lemm.ee since the image uploads are restricted to 100kb) so I tried again and made sure to refresh and navigate back to this community/thread before trying to reply. However the reply continued to go to that other post even after doing so. I’ve switched to the web to upload the images and make this comment.
Hopefully that makes sense but let me know if there’s anything I can clarify. I’m really excited about this app so far!
Would you be able to run a few of tests for me?
- Post an image without switching accounts.
- Switch accounts and then post an image.
- Create a new post and see if it’s just comments that are the issue.
- Create a comment without an image.
It would be a big help! ❤️

Okay, I've spammed a ton of beans!
- Top-level reply image
- Top-level reply image after switching
- New image post
- Top-level reply without image, screenshot - weirdly this is the problematic one this time, this comment went to the kbin post again.
- I also replied to this comment from two accounts to see if there's a difference if it's a reply to a comment vs a reply to a post
Very strange. So I'm not able to reproduce the problem consistently and it's also happening with text comments? I did notice some additional weird behavior:
- After switching accounts and returning to view the thread, all of the replies have disappeared and all of the community content is missing. Pulling down to refresh the content doesn't help but navigating away and back via the community tab several times restores the content.
- After switching accounts and returning to the community, the kbin post shows up in place of the megathread. Clicking through to the post leads here, to this megathread.
Oh wow, that is really weird. I’d presumed it was the ID of the post somehow ended up the same but that doesn’t seem to be the case. I wonder if because it’s a Kbin post I’d that makes any difference.
Does writing a text comment here cause the same issue or was it just image uploads?
Oh they might have the same ID on different instances 🤔
I’ll see if I can replicate the issue. Sounds like you might be right with the multi account being a factor though.
Small issue. But I have sound effects turned on in settings. When I upvote something there is an audio tone. However, when I put my phone into silent mode via the switch on the side of the iPhone, I still get an audio tone when I upvote something.
I turned off sound effects for now, but I think the app audio settings should be overridden by the phone settings (silent mode in this instance).
Let me know if you need more info.
Thanks!
Agreed, it should be silent when the phone is silent. This isn’t something that I’d experienced but I’ll see if I can replicate it.
Appreciate it. If there’s any more info I can provide just let me know.
