FAQ

When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
How do I join the beta?
- We are currently testing our new 2.0 codebase on TestFlight. We have two beta groups: a weekly group that receives the current state of our development branch every week, and a stable group that receives a curated pre-release build at the end of each development cycle.
- Join the weekly beta
- Join the stable beta
How do I join the dev team?
- Head over to our recruitment channel, or go straight to our GitHub and read CONTRIBUTING.md to get started.

While browsing your feed you can swipe a post to up/downvote it, or reply to it. However if you are within the post itself this does not appear possible and you have to use the buttons. Can this be changed?

Collapsing a post/comment currently only needs a slight touch, and as such I have collapsed posts, or a comment while merely trying to scroll. Can this action be made to require a long touch (or give us the option?)

If either of these are already available within the app would someone point me to the settings as I have been unable to find them.

+1 for swipe gestures for single posts

[–] ericbandrews@lemmy.ml 6 points 11 months ago

We unfortunately can’t make long press the collapse post gesture, since that is already taken by the system context menu behavior. We can, however, add an option to disable tap-to-collapse, since we already have the alternative of swiping very far to the left to collapse a comment implemented.

Swipe actions on expanded posts should be feasible, but I’m not going to promise it until I’ve reviewed our other planned features and verified that there aren’t other uses for that gesture under discussion.

I suppose we could make it a double tap gesture 👀

i wouldnt like it, since swipe right in a post gets you back to the feed

[–] nocturne213@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago

Swiping either direction in a post does nothing for me at the moment.
