I know Sync is coming and there are rumors about Boost. Are there more?

Rules:
- Be civil and nice.
- Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
Slide for reddit is officially making a lemmy app.
Hmm, thought i read that Boost dev said "no".
I think it's a "no for now", but Ruben has reserved a community over here just in case.
There's a post about Slide being developed too, which was always my favorite Reddit app.
Whys everyone obsessed with apps? Mobile browser works.
The website definitely works, but it has weird issues with posts jumping around.
Also you can’t use gestures on the website, but you can on apps. Like swiping to comment/like, tapping to hide, etc). It just feels way smoother
it has some overflow problems, and doesn't look as good as a native app.
Whats an overflow problem?
TL;DR: big elements cause annoying scroll-bars to appear.
My username is very big, so when I open this page on a mobile I get a horizontal scroll-bar for the entire page.
In CSS there's a property called overflow
which lets you decide how you want elements that contain elements wider or taller than them to behave. So you can solve this problem by simply making that element itself scroll instead of the entire page by using overflow: scroll
, or hide the child elements by using overflow: hidden;
.
You can also solve these problems by dealing with the child elements for example: using the word-wrap
property to allow word wrapping, using the hyphens
property to break words with hyphens, or in this case use the HTML wbr
tag to allow line breaking after every underscore, or even cut the longer words and append three dots to them; so my user name would look like this: "Limitless_s...".
I havent seen any such thing on mobile browser here. Its taken screen space into account quite well.
There's always a way!
TBH, the mobile experience isn't half bad
I am actually working on one myself with. Net Maui blazor to be able to provide the same ui in browser and native on all mobiles and desktops (Mac, ios, Android, Windows,... With out Linux)
Maybe this is finally the chance to embrace the webapp.
It's a pretty good webapp
thunder for ios is really nice sofar
