2 Edit: Ok back up as .79

Edit: Expired .78 because of a super annoying keyboard autofocus on the traverse page. Releasing .79 in about 5 minutes.

Hey all! Here are this version's changes:

  • Fix infinite spinning on profile page
  • Images that also have a post body now show both
  • Fixed duplicate NSFW setting
  • Keyboard for search now includes "@" for easy access
  • Sign in/sign up screens now include "." for easy access as well
  • Onboarding screen should render correctly on all devices
  • You can save posts now. They will be synced with your Lemmy account. You can view them on your profile page
  • All of your subscriptions will now show up and you can search through them. Also a more attractive and easy way to access them
  • Default Active search was added to settings
  • Settings was moved to profile. We will revisit this if it's a user issue (i.e. people can't find it, you guys don't like it, etc.)
  • Issue with communities having an "infinite render" are fixed

We're getting there!

Happy scrolling!

What a world to be alive with those lightspeed releases!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looks awesome! Thank you! Any sense of when this is coming to the App Store or proposed pricing structure?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

https://i.imgur.com/k4keVcD.png We will see what happens

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

bro you are a legend. the speed these updates come out is ridiculous

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

The amount of work that you guys get through is incredible.

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

The keyboard opening on the traverse page is quite annoying, especially since there’s already a search page that does that. Other than that it’s great.

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

This was a mistake. New build is already building...

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

Can you shed some light on what the traverse button should do?

When I click it, it’s just blank with a search box at the top.

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

Subscribe to some communities and they will show up there. It’s going to have a bit more stuff like trending and whatnot, not a fully complete feature yet.

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

Ah. If any other users have this issue, close and reopen the app and they will be there.

Loving the app so far!!!!

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

Yea, you can pull to refresh there too. I should have made it more clear with a placeholder, just didn’t do it because I have some other plans for it. Sorry bout that.

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

Check the new version. Sorry about that, didn't even notice. Simulator doesn't display the keyboard.

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

Wow that was quick, cheers. I’ve noticed that the keyboard auto focuses on the search page as well except for the first time you click on the search page after opening the app.

Not sure what the intended behaviour is but I assume it’s not that. It would be good if it auto focused when the page is blank but not when you’ve already searched something.

Don’t rush changing that though since it’s a lot less annoying than the traverse bug.

Thanks again.

Wow, this is great! And at last all my subscriptions show up! Great work!

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

Was the issue of GIFs marked NSFW playing behind the blur fixed? This also causes performance issues as the app stutters.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Ok I built the bundle to upload then saw this. Let me fix it real quick before I upload. Thanks for the reminder.

Edit: Done and rebuilding.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

My god you’re awesome.

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

Best dev, rivaling Christian with Apollo here.

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

Awesome update! Keep up the good work

I am mostly excited about Saved now working. My only question is: Is there a way to recover locally saved items before this update? Are they saved to a file/database on my phone?

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

You are doing awesome work. I hope you make lots of money or benefit greatly for all your efforts!

Is there a way to sort comments on posts? I would love to be able to sort them by new or top.

Thanks again for your impressive output. Memmy is such a quality app.

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

sorting comments is what i’m hoping for too

very useful for game threads on sporting events so I can refresh and see al the newest comments immediately

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

I started using Memmy a few days ago and haven’t looked back. OP, you need a tip jar.

Question: in-line links don’t seem to be working for me. This is all I see when I try to use it:

Down the line, would love a profile specific NSFW filter…for science.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Totally not necessary but it's here if you insist.

Um, I don't actually see anything that you linked there. Did you mean to post an image?

And yea, that's something I am thinking of.

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

Yeah, thats what I meant to post since it’s what I see.

e.g. Example when I try to use it

*nevermind, seems I was doing it wrong.

Every time I comment using memmy, the default score is +2 (2 upvotes), is that intended? Because on other client, it's +1

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

Not intended and will be fixed in the next release.

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

The traverse tab doesn’t update subscriptions when you select a second account.

Just fyi.

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

Meh, why wait hours when you can do it now. Fixed and updated.

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

You’re on fire.

I still get the weird double refresh profile thing happening.

I’ve also had the subscription list add double entries a few times but not sure what is triggering it. Once it mixed subscriptions from both accounts.

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

I think all of those are fixed now. Ironed out quite a few bugs in the last update.

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

I’ve got another update coming in a few hours. It’ll be fixed. Thanks.

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

Maybe consider unpinning this one :)

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

Noticed a few things:

  • The star for subscribed Lenny communities in the top right on the feed is missing on my device
  • while the @ was a great addition it appears that the search button is now no longer there

There were both present in build 75 but disappeared in 78

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

Fixed the later issue for now just by reverting. I'll have to do something a bit different, couldn't use the standard Twitter keyboard type.

As for the former, I am experimenting with using the Traverse page for this instead. I'll be adding some other features there such as trending.

If people hate it, I'll switch it back. If it's mixed, I'll do both. Just want to see what user feedback is here and go from there. It's totally not something set in stone.

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

Are we supposed to be able to vote on comments yet? It just collapses the comment for me when I try to hit the upvote or downvote buttons.

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

Use the swipe gesture. From right to left.

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

Ooh, thanks!

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

Speaking of that can you add an option to disable tap to collapse?

And while I’m asking where should we post for app suggestions?

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

thanks for these consistently awesome quality updates

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

I can‘t set the default sorting type to new.

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

The default setting is for app launch. You can select the sort of the current session from the icon at the top.

It might be worth updating this automatically though once a user changes the setting, I’ll add this to the list.

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

Can i ask a stupid question?

I've compiled & installed iOS applications before, but this must be the first with yarn. I can get it running on my physical device, but it looks like it needs the dev server running. I even went in & set it to be a Release instead of Debug, but no luck

Any chance someone can point me in the right direction?

Thank you!

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

You can open the project in Xcode to do prod builds. Open up Xcode then open up the “ios” directory from the cloned project.

Edit: you’ll need to do this first:

cd ios && pod install

No problem! If you have problems join the Discord and @ me. I’m doing some grilling today for the holiday so I’ll be on a little later than usual.

Also for the record I expect this to be on the App Store tomorrow. It should have been today but I assume they are not working with the holiday.

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

Ah, even better if it will be on the store. I may still play around with it today anyway, just to get more used to XCode. Would love to be able to start building some simple apps &. work my way up.

I wouldn't want to bother you with simple questions, especially while you're enjoying the holiday.

I hope you're enjoying your grilling!

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

Hello! This app is great so far. Just downloaded from the App Store. I was wondering if there’s a way to import the JSON file exported from Apollo, similar to how wefwef.app works? Thanks for all your hard work!

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

For posts that have links to external websites, how do I follow the link?

I just clicked https://lemmy.world/post/1078414, and for some reason I can't figure out how to follow the link to read the actual story.
