Spent a few minutes running some random searches. Seemed to work well on this end!
Changelog: August 1st
Build 2023.08.01.01.14
- Added the ability to create "groups" on the Communities tab. This is a WIP and you cannot delete or edit yet. I'm also open to a better name for this feature!
- Pushed the creation of SDAnimatedImage to a background thread to alleviate some of the UI blocking that was causing animations to stutter. I'm still not 100% happy with this and will be revisiting in the future.
Name suggestion i'd say bean-pod or community-pod lol.
Beanpod is so fun!!
Another vote for Beanpods!
Seems like the line spacing is a bit out of whack, definitely not as condensed as it should be (especially obvious in comments).
Maybe this is a stupid question, but what is a “parse flair”? I can’t quite figure it out from turning the setting on and off.
this is my favourite Lemmy app so far, it feels great!
if I may add a couple bits of feedback:
-
would it be possible to select the position of the Skip Thread button? I understand that there can be at least 2 buttons down there, but it would be nice to have the flexibility.
-
swipe actions in comments are great though I feel they trigger rather easily when scrolling down a thread. not sure if others have mentioned this already but maybe reducing sensitivity so the action is more deliberate could improve the experience?
-
just noticed while typing this that the composer is having some scrolling issue with longer posts? I can't see past a specific point unless I hid the keyboard.
regardless, fantastic work! will there be a tip jar or some pricing model released soon? I'd love to support the app's development in some way

Build 2023.07.30.22.45
Smaller update than anticipated this weekend because it was pride 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ and I was out celebrating with friends ❤️
This one is mainly bug fixes but there is a big change to how I'm handling multiple accounts. States are now persisted when accounts are changed. This means if you have a certain post open, switch accounts to browse on another instance, and then switch back — it will still be right where you left it.
- Added state persistence between account switches.
- Added press and hold on the account tab to open the account switcher.
- Removed background on the card and post footer.
- Removed background from featured posts on the single post view.
- Featured post backgrounds are now based on the accent colour.
- Made the entire card view tappable, not just the title.
- Tidied up the card and single post views.
- Fixed issues with bookmarking.
- Fixed issues with sharing links.
- Fixed issues with overlapping content in the post composer.
- Changed search on the communities selector in the composer.
- Fixed a visual glitch between the composer and community selector.
- Keyboard can now be dismissed in the composer community selection screen.
- Fixed an issue with scroll to top offsets.
- Added a link to posts on the Inbox and profile comments views. Still a WIP.
- Content of comments is now hidden if removed by a moderator or deleted by author.
- Added a link to the community on the Inbox and user profile comments.
- Markdown editor is now reset when creating a post or comment.
Pretty big update for a “small” update! Hope you had a good celebration!
Testing the image feature with beans.
Missing menu option:
If I disable the “Create post” floating button, I can still create a new post from the menu.
If I disable the “Reply” floating button, there is no menu option (or any other way) to reply to a post.
You can reply by clicking the icon on comments icon on that screen but I'll add a mention option 😄
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
Blocking is on the list; just getting some of the bigger features sorted but it'll be there for 1.0. The visual glitch is the translucent bar disappearing. It looks a little weird with no image banner so I might see about changing it so it fades in and out sooner.
The visual glitch (or at least a similar one) also occurs on my device on profiles with an image banner.
A new build (2023.7.19.22.28) is rolling out to TestFlight now.
