Hi Boost gang,

The first version of Boost for Lemmy is almost ready. If you want to test the app for bugs and give feedback before the app is published, follow this link https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.rubenmayayo.lemmy to enable an early access option on the Boost for Lemmy Play Store listing.

Thanks for your patience!

A minor ui glitch(?)

When scrolling through posts I noticed that occasionally the post summary would slightly scroll up cropping the first line in the summary.

After playing with it for a few minutes, I can reproduce the behavior by pressing on the summary, holding the press and dragging left or right, continuing to hold the press and dragging up or down.

It seems I tend to scroll with a slight diagonal motion instead of a pure up and down motion.

Screen shots showing the glitch: The post in [email protected], the "hey guys..." line gets scrolled off screen with the "diagonal scroll motion"

Normal post look

Glitched look

So far it feels solid to me. Thanks so much for your hard work

This look great! Was struggling with Jerboa for the last few days. I gave up and got into Tildes instead!!

This feels familiar!! ๐Ÿ‘ Awesome

Loving the app! I'm having trouble swiping away media. It doesn't feel sensitive enough and usually takes me several swipes. I've enabled the tap to close which works amazingly but muscle memory wants to swipe.

Recommendation/Hope: it would be amazing to have a media peek where I can tap and hold on a thumbnail and it enlarges the picture. Awesome app, thanks!

Looking forward to trying this! I'm unable to log in on this account currently as there isn't a TOTP field :)

It looks like the "c" community links aren't working. Like this: /c/boostforlemmy@lemmy.world.

The Trending Communities posts are full of these if you need more examples (here's today's post).

Edit: weird, my comment links aren't working. They're showing as normal text for me, but when you go to copy, select text, you can see that they're hyperlinks.

Thank you! you have done an amazing job! ๐ŸŒท bought the app right away. Not a bug but a question / request : will you implement a 'History' tab in the sidebar, like there was in boost for reddit? I find it very useful having the ability to scroll through posts I've viewed but not saved.. especially after nights my mind wasn't so clear.. Thanks again rmayayo! ๐ŸŒท

I also can't seem to press and hold on taps for images when in the full-exapanded screen

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Wondering if you plan to add swipe left from the right side of the phone to go back to the last/prior comment page

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Thank you very much! I used Boost for Reddit, which was amazing, and I didn't use any app for Lemmy until this was released.

Does your password have more than 60 chars? If that's the case, type only the first 60 chars. This should be fixed for the next version.

If not, let me know the error message.
