Hi there, thanks for all your work on this app! The latest major release introduced a visual bug and I was wondering if you could please fix that. Namely, adding visual clutter in the form of non-uniform coloration in the comments view.
Figure 1: Picture of a phone running an older version of the app:

Note how the comments and dividers are clean, the lines to indicate tabbing are uninterrupted, the upvote/downvote/actions bar is the same color as the rest of the backgrounds.
Figure 2: Screenshot from the latest version of the app. I've highlighted in red the color discontinuities, but also left 2 visible below unhighlighted:
To my eye the first picture with the older UI looks far better and is much less cluttered.
Out of curiosity: do you have an example that looks especially weird? I haven't really noticed before but you stating that I maybe know what you might put a limit on.
Do you mean large screen support? Currently there is no way to force it on. The app measures the screen spaces and determines if multiple columns is appropriate. If you want this feature let me know and I can add it to the to do list.
It really could just be that I'm an idiot and can't remember correctly. I'm putting together a small overview of lemmy apps for the family website, and was comparing features, and could have sworn summit was one of a few that could do that.
Hi, the app is almost unreadable for me when using the light/automatic theme:
I also have noticed you can't choose the scaling sort type as your default one, unless you have it on by default in your Lemmy web preferences (set up outside the Summit app).
I think both issues have been around since some previous versions.
I can't reproduce this issue on light theme or automatic. Could you share what setting you have on? A quick way to do this is to go to Settings > Import and export settings > export and choose copy to clipboard. Then you can paste your settings here or DM me. I'll look into the default sort issue.
I figured it out. The app was applying the black theme regardless of which theme is used. I'll fix it in the next update to only apply it when it's a dark theme.
Oh good to know, thanks for the feedback to my feedback lol.
I remember it has been like that since some versions ago but didn't care to report because I thought someone would notice it soon, turns out I might be the only psycho using a white/light theme 🤣 (automatic in all fairness).
