Again beta 50 to 91 mainly due to lots and lots of internal releases!

I thought I was going crazy, how could I miss so many versions lol.

I have no update version yet showing in the PlayStore... so I guess it is a matter of time?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Same here, I don't have the update available yet. I just assume it's still making its way through the tubes.

Hopefully it won't take long, this app keeps showing how premium the Lemmy experience can be on mobile 🤘🏻

Sadly, the app crashes for me 1–2 seconds after opening it. I'm no longer able to use it. Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3

You are awesome! It's crazy to have such a great app for something like lemmy, really not something you expect or at all take for granted. It's so cool that you managed to keep it so similar to the reddit version, it's very nice to feel at home with it after using it for reddit for years.

Thanks for all your work LJ, it's clear the value we get from having you be able to dedicate so much time to working on Sync. Love seeing so much improvement to an already great app.

I'm especially happy for the PipedLinkBot feature and profile overview.

Edit: now that the update has shown up on my end and I've tried the new features, I'd like to add that I slightly misunderstood what the PipedLinkBot would do, any chance we could have an option for those comments to be collapsed by default instead of hidden?

Ugh, this update is so good. This app is so good. Even if Lemmy continues to lose users and content, I love opening this app because of how good it feels to navigate through it.

I'm going to keep building it with the faith that this is going somewhere. It's been really fun working on this.

It's not the user loss that is the concern, it's the actual contributors that matter the most. As long as they stick around, it's all good.

So don't stop contributing folks!

I've noticed since updating this morning that clicking images (not sure what it's officially called, the Image Preview? when you click an image post without loading the post comments) frequently loads a blank screen. Only clicking back and then on the image again gets it to load properly.

There should be an update available that fixes this.

Just downloaded the update and can confirm that fixed the issue. Your turn around time continues to amaze me. I work in a corporate environment where we have to write user stories, discuss them in backlog grooming, do sprint planning, develop, test, go through a Change Advisory Board approval, do release planning, then deployment.

The fact that I can just comment in one of your threads about something weird I'm seeing and then you fix it in less than a day is nothing short of astonishing. You rock!

I can only imagine how good this feels to read a compliment like this. That was really well said.

Do you mean peeking? When it only appears while you hold? Or just a tap on the thumbnail?

parent

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 years ago

I didn't even know peeking was a thing until you mentioned it. Oddly enough, that works fine. Tapping the thumbnail gets a blank screen. Holding gets it to load.

Hey, getting instant crashes after updating on my end. I sent in a feedback report, crashes while loading up.

Just pushed a fix, thanks for the report.

Blocked communities are not blocked #425

How does Sync have anything to do with Blocks? I read issue #425. The initial report says "Open the community. Click the block button. Community is now in the list of blocked communities."

That block button has always been a server-side block recorded on the instance itself, right? So I'm assuming the submitter means they checked the list of blocks on their instance's website.

And then you replied that you fixed it. How is this possible?

[–] ljdawson@lemmy.world [S] 4 points 3 years ago

I mistakenly understood this as the filter issue. Reopened.

Just noticed a glitch with spoilers I think

If you use the spoiler tag on a comment and then click on the spoiler to un-hide it, clicking edit will remove the spoiler tag code for the stuff that was originally marked. The " >! ! < " disappears in the editing page is what I mean.

But if you never un-hide it, you can click edit on your comment and it will show the ">! !< " still there.

My app crashes immediately upon opening, after the splash screen but before loading any posts. I've tried restarting my phone. Haven't tried clearing the app's cache because I don't want to relogin and also I shouldn't be on lemmy during work anyway lol.

Running Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra with Android 13 and One UI 5.1. I have sync ultra.

Edit: Clearing data worked until I restored my settings.

I tried clearing the cache and that didn't work. Also it looks like I'm still logged in so I guess idk what the cache stores lol

If you've enabled the hide button in posts this version will load the post instead of hiding it.

Added "overview" as a new default section for profiles

This is great and long awaited, however it also means months of muscle memory down the drain again 😂

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago (2 children)

Seems like I cannot open comments anymore.

[–] ljdawson@lemmy.world [S] 4 points 3 years ago (1 child)

If you switch to the "slides" view mode that should stop the crash. I've already submitted a patch to Google, just waiting their approval.

I see "#### New" instead of "New" in bold characters in the previews before I click on the post. The text accompanying the title is not formatted, it's the raw markdown input.
