Hi, no update yesterday as I was out of town but now we're back to the usual release cadence. This release brings an image uploader to comments (and other places), swipe to go back navigation, a new icon, and more.
Changelog
Added ability to attach images to comments/the post body
Added swipe to go back navigation
Switching users should now refresh the drawer correctly
Improved image caching, things should feel snappier now
Added option to force links to open in external browser
Added option to enable/disable swipe navigation
Fixed an issue with pinch to zoom images, preventing accidental closes when trying to zoom in
Added subscriber count when searching communities
Community search results are now ordered by subscriber counts
Removed a border between comments now that we have dividers, the goal was to break up comments a bit visually but the border isn't needed if we have dividers.
Small thing, but I'm pretty sure in the setting descriptions you want "affects" not "effects".
Also, could you make it so it's Connect for Lemmy in the play store for visibility, but just Connect as the app name on my screen? I know I can manually edit it but I noticed liftoff and jerboa recently did this.
How many subscriptions do you have about? I did a shortcut with pagination were it stops at 100 because I didn't think anyone would have more than 100. Might be related..
I think that's the problem, yeah. The problem with federated instances is that the numbers of duplicate communities is exploding. I guess one day it will be possible to merge or create multi-subs (like MultiReddits)
If I could add the community I'm browsing as a favorite it would solve that issue. Right now I can't access this sub either through the Favorite or Subscribed tabs. I have to manually search for it each time.
Do you happen to be doing some text sanitizing or setting size limits for password inputs? I have a complex special character full password that's 64 characters in length and whenever I try to log into lemmy.ca it tells me that the server is returning "password_incorrect", but I can log in via Jerboa with the copy & pasted password without issue.
Out of curiosity, is there a plan for earning yourself some sweet moolah in the future? Been enjoying the app, donated, but was wondering if you had thought about that already.
Not really any plans beyond the donations which are nice. Right now I want to make Lemmy really easy to use and help grow the userbase. Maybe a year from now there could be a Connect Pro haha.
After the update I can only seem to upvote/downvote top level comments. Does anyone else have this issue? Want to make sure it isn't just me before I make a bug thread
