Memmy is easily a 9/10 already, just missing some features.

Been absolutely loving the Dracula (purple) theme!!

I loath the font size of the subjects of posts in my feed. It's the opposite of sleek. Huge and bold regardless of anything I toggle. I can't find a way to change it and it puts me off. Al my font sizes are set to small, and the feed is compact, so seeing it huge and bold is just off putting.

I've kept with WefWef/Voyager for that reason alone. I come back to see if try here are more options, but it hasn't happened.

Otherwise it seems great.

Weird, I have no issues with any font sizes. Mind posting a screenshot? I’m super curious.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Notice the gap in disparity between my name at the top, the font in the bottom row and the posts. I get it won't all be the same, but I also tried to show a post with not aton of text being in 5 rows.

Now compare to Voyager the same-ish posts...

To me, it's much cleaner and closer to my system font size. Not the end of the world, but when just scrolling through posts irks me, I look for alternatives. Though I did find a few other things I liked while figuring out how to reply and post images.

At the end of the day, I'm reasonable. People like what they like and tend to stick to that. I found WefWef/Voyager fist and it felt and looked like Apollo (font size and all). Then I found Memmy, so that might also play into it.

Wow that’s super bizarre. This is how compact view looks on my end. I normally use standard view though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Here’s how my settings look.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I reinstalled and matched your settings. No dice. I wish it looked that way. Thanks for wanting to help.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I would turn off Use System Font Size and set your own size.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I definitely went through and toggled everything in Memmy on/off. Thanks for the recommendation though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

have you tried turning it (compact view) off and on again?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Eventually I figured it out. Thanks for following up. See copy/pasted comment below:

So I was able to fix it after I realized font size changes require a refresh of posts. Disabling use system font size and the refreshing the posts solved the font size issue. I appreciate the invite to Discord, but life gets in the way.

Damn that’s so strange. Sorry dude.

Hey I’m one of the developers of Memmy. Do you have any settings changed for font size in your iOS settings? That’s definitely not what it looks like for most users

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

My iOS font size is at the lowest setting.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Weird. If you care enough to join our discord i can try to help troubleshoot. Don’t know what would be causing that but like i said, im not aware of it being an issue for anyone else

No worries, yea some of our memoization needs a little more work for appearance changes at the moment. I’m glad you got it working better!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Once I get the equivalent to the new comment highlightinator (displays how comments are new since the last time you click the post) and customizable swipe gestures I will be very happy

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That would be awesome. I’d also like the option to edit posts.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Oh it was navigation gestures. Using the bottom bar to swip back and forth. I would sometimes try to upvote a comment or something and back out of the post being able to swipe forward wasn’t needed but nice to have since my thumb was already down there

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah there’s some other 3rd feature I loved about Apollo but it always slips my mind
