Hi everyone!

2025 is here, and I'm curious to hear your thoughts on Voyager for Lemmy.

  • What features would you like to see added to Voyager in 2025?
  • Are there any bugs or issues that are bothering you?

Am I just blind, or is there no way to search the comments?

Edit: i'm on iOS version 17.7.1 on the actual application not the Web app

i have a privacy/security feature request:

lock screen prompt when trying to switch profiles.

currently all it takes to switch is two clicks, no identity verification.

so if you have a regular and a NSFW (or otherwise private) profile, and you give someone your phone to look at a post, it's easy to switch to a profile that should be gated behind a verification screen...

infinity has this feature, and it's really nice for peace of mind!

otherwise voyager has been excellent all around! thanks for putting the work in!

Could we add the “disable downvotes” option that lemmy had in native settings. Ie. it’ll hide downvotes and behave according to upvotes only.

I know this is technically possible in voyager if you’re on an entire instance with downvotes disabled, but lemmy settings let you do this with a single account, which voyager does not.

ALSO I’m loving the new label/tagging system. :)

Honestly, i just love voyager as it is. I'm still on reddit, but use voyager/lemmy like 4x more by now. So i'm sure there will be great improvement ideas here, I'm here just to thank you 💪💪

I'd love it if deleted posts included a link to the mod log to easily see if it was a case of moderator power tripping or just some asshole commenter.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

More mod tools are planned!

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Two features I'd love to see are an option from the posts view for "Scroll to top", also while in a comments section the ability to "find/search" the various comments. Thanks so much :)

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Features: Tablet layout on iPad, GIF scrobbling with swipe.

Bugs: Database error, UI missing requiring quit and restart.

Overall though, Voyager is amazing & indispensable. Great job :)

Hi!

Let me please add to the thanks and kudos for all your efforts developing a truly excellent app!

Two new features I didn’t see elsewhere (my apologies if they were already mentioned or are otherwise off base):

  1. ability to search the comments of a post you’re viewing (like “find in page” on a web browser)
  2. ability to view the relevant portion of the mod log by clicking on a comment that has been moderated (e.g., deleted)

Thanks again!

I wish there was an option to move the up and downvote arrows to the left side. So I can scroll and upvote with one hand as a left-handed person.

Swipe anywhere to go back would be a nice added feature.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

That's on Github!

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I'd like to save drafts and have it connected to the post or comment I'm replying to.

Be able to search my saved comments and post.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Both sound good, although the latter requires lemmy api support I think.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

When you maximise an image without going into the thread itself (I.e. tapping the image displayed in the feed), if you press the back button, it exits to your instance list

Would prefer if it only exited out of the maximised image

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

It shouldn't do that. Are you using the latest version? And PWA or native app?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Okay thats my b

Thanks for the reply <3

Please, PLEASE adjust the UI to prevent accidental touches. On far too many occasions I mis-tap and end up going to the community instead of the post. Or the User's profile instead of collapsing the comment. Drives me nuts! Those links are already in a separate menu; no need for the redundancy. Tapping anywhere on a post should only ever go to the post. Tapping anywhere on a comment should only ever collapse the comment.

Take a page out of Relay for Reddit, where you swipe to the left on a post or comment to bring up a submenu, and that's where your options to upvote/downvote, reply, view the community/user profile, etc. are. (i.e. Remove the 3 dots and put all those options in such a swipeable menu.) The current swipe gestures should be turned into a "slow swipe" gesture so that people still have the option to set their favorite shortcuts to them.

Please, I'm begging you to implement this.

If I accidentally swipe open the communities when browsing my feed, I should be able to swipe out of it back to my feed. Another option would be to have an option to disable swipe to open communities picker.

Lately I've been getting more issues with images failing to load. Virtually every image from feddit.org had issue some days, but today I see random posts from mander.xyz and lemmy.world too. I tested it on another app and they load there. I can also open the lost in a browser to see the image.

Other than that the app is really nice, although I hate accidentally backspacing one time too many and restarting my scrolling from the very top of "all" 😄

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Did you test another app with exact same instance and login?
