We accept bug reports and feature requests both here and on GitHub :)
If you already have a GitHub account, creating issues there is easier for us, but it really doesn't matter too much. We also have a Matrix chat.
I used to be an arctic user, but quit after it was abandoned. I also used Memmy and Mlem from when I first joined lemmy. After Arctic I became a full time Mlem user.
The devs are very responsive, and every app I try these days I compare to Mlem.
I try to post ideas for the app here so there is some discussion, because while I may think my idea is great, someone might have a similar idea to make it even better.
Bugs I try to report on GitHub, but usually end up reporting in the matrix chat and sjmarf ends up opening a git issue for me... trying to get better about that.
I use GitHub a lot so happy to post there. And I’ll post here re ideas. My biggest ‘miss’ from Arctic was the excellent image handling (from a UX perspective). I think they had that just right and would love to see it work that way on Mlem.
It has been a while since Arctic worked for me, having been on the TestFlight, but I do not recall it being any better than mlem's image handling.
Edit: was able to install Arctic from the App Store. In this post I think Arctic absolutely fails at the image thumbnails.
I intended for the boondocks image to be visible as the thread thumbnail and the oops image seen within the post. But Arctic takes two landscape images, crops them to portrait making both unreadable without tapping to view the image.
I do like, however, that after tapping on one image I can swipe to see the next.
Edit 2: same thread on Mlem
Yes it’s more the image viewer I was referring to not the feed view. I worked a bit with the Arctic developer to get it just how I like it, so I guess I’m a bit biased :) But I’ll write it up and see what others think.
