Version x.x.x was released, why is it not yet on F-droid?
We have no control over F-droid's build process. This process is automatic and not always predictable in terms of time it takes. If a new version does not appear in F-droid a week after its release, then feel free to open an issue about it and we will look into it.
You might want to rename it considering that a company named Liftoff Software exists and has a trademark on the the term, "liftoff" pertaining to software.
You might want to add it to the lemmy readme (or maybe we need a "awesome lemmy" repo with a list of lemmy software and resources?)
I made a bunch of feature requests to lemmy (stuff like reddit enhancement suite features) and most notably the ability for a user to block an instance, would it be ok if i will copy paste them to your issue tracker?
alt and the left key should move to the previous page like in web browsers on linux.
Feels smooth. I wish there was an option to hide the bottom bar and to reduce the font size a bit.
For now I'll keep using Jerboa, but waiting for it to be less "sluggish" while scrolling.
So I am using it right now but my main issue is that it keeps repeating the same posts over and over on my all feed. I thought it was scrolling back to the top every time I backed out of a post but no it was just another dupe.
It is because it shows the posts from Lemmy.world, Lemmy.ml and beehaw.org all at the same time. If you click the sorting button Up the top you can set it to only show one of them.
I've tried just about all of the current apps that are available for lemmy over the last two days and so far liftoff feels the most like a usable app to me. To ve fair, I know that a lot of rhe apps I tried are still in alpha or beta, so I'm not trying to talk bad about them, I get it. Liftoff is pretty good though.
Yeah I almost forgot about that. I've also noticed lately that whenever you post a comment it appears twice as if you double posted, but in reality there's only one comment.
Just tried it (writing this comment from it). Generally, it feels a lot more polished and nicer looking than Jerboa, but, if you set the feed to Subsciber, nothing happens, it just loads a blank page.
Other than this, it feels a lot better than Jerboa. So I would use it, but the Subscribed feed is broken, so that's a deal breaker for me currently.
Ok, found a fix for this, on the drop down for selecting feeds, choose the subscribed feeds from the instance, not the everything section. That seems to work as expected for me.
Try Obtainium. I use it for apps that I would have to wait on F-droid for. Also check out the IzzyOnDroid Repo as a lot of apps get updates faster on that repo.
Just ran into the same problem. I fixed it by going to settings -> accounts and them pressing and holding on each instance that I don't have an account on and removing it. Then it uses the instance I do have an account on.
It probably means that you have enabled the "everything feed" in liftoff settings. This aggregates content from all instances apparently, even those not federated with yours.
Edit: weird cause you seem to be on sh.itjust.works which is federated with Lemmy.world.
It is be because all feed includes Lemmy.world, Lemmy.ml and beehaw.org. That means there will be duplicate posts retrieved from other instances. If there is a Lemmy.world post they would see it 3 times: one from original Lemmy.world version, one from Lemmy.ml and one from sh.itjust.works. Bit can only comment on sh.itjust.works version because they are not logged into Lemmy.world or Lemmy.ml
There is a difference with adding an instance and accessing it that way (via their API - bypassing the server you signed up on) and via federation using the server you signed up on. Only in the latter case can you vote using the account already registered.
Try using the search feature to access the community via federation (e.g. "[email protected]") rather than adding the instance directly.
An account on one instance lets you interact with all other instances, but only via that instance, not directly. You are probably viewing the "All" feed via an instance you are not signed into. Try this:
Release page does not provide a precompiled ipa files. I would need to compile the app my self and sign it with my own certificate wich is only valid for seven days.
Sideloading on iOS is not that simple as on Android.
So my instance has updated to 0.18 and Enabled TOTP support - I have enabled it as I want to ensure my accounts are as secure as possible. the problem, no apps support it yet.
I plan to install every app for Lemmy in order to find a good experience on Lemmy. So I have installed it, but I won't be able to use it untill it supports entering TOTP tokens.
Do you plan to add support for this?
Edit: not sure why this was downvoted. I know some people are having issues with the implementation TOTP in Lemmy - I nearly did, in fact the code didn't show up in my authenticator app until I accidentally added it twice. (Then I removed the identical second code) But the fact the implementation needs work doesn't mean it shouldn't be supported - next point release should be fixing some or all of these things, so isn't it a good idea to be prepared for that?
Also I've seen a pull request in Jerboa's github that adds preliminary support for it as well - but the Devs are bogged down with requests for Lemmy and Jerboa, so I'm not expecting it to make it through in the next week, no matter how much of a priority it is.
Now I know this app is open source and run by people out of the goodness of their heart too. And I will patiently wait for the time when it's added - if not work out a preliminary way to add it and submit a pull request. But my expertise isn't in interface and app design and therefore if I do find the time to do it, the implementation will be crude at best - I know next to none of the conventions specific to app development, having only used LibGDX, which is a game dev toolkit similar to XNA for modern android.
Yes we plan to add support. But there was a pretty serious bug in Lemmy backend around their TOTP URI handling locking users out of their accounts. We'll likely wait until 0.18.1
Is your password longer than 60 characters? If so, you should know that your actual password was truncated to 60 chars at the time of account creation. You won't notice on the website because the login webform automatically truncates characters beyond the limit, but most 3rd-party apps don't do this because it's an undocumented thing.
Basically, my advice would be to update the password in your password manager to be truncated to 60 characters and then try logging in with the app again.
What kind of maniac would use a password that's longer than 60 characters?
I get that password managers are standard now, but anything outside the norm is just asking for trouble. I vividly remember updating a client's webfrom to reject emojis in passwords, because for some reason people started using them and it wrecked havoc in the backend.
By which component is the password truncated on account-creation? Imo, the web UI shouldn't do that without at least warning the user. Such long passwords might be a corner-case, but if the UI changes the password in any way before submitting it to the server, I think the user should see a big fat red notification. What if an account was created using a different client? The user wouldn't be able to log in using the web-ui because the web-ui refuses to send the unmodified password?
If the password is truncated server-side during account creation, the server should do the same during login, the UI or client wouldn't even have to know about it.
