Hi, thank you everyone for the feedback. This release mostly is just added improvements that have been highly requested. 113 adds draft posts and comments as well as video playback for most video services. I’ve also added support for ::: spoiler tags ::: (although just a first iteration and I’m still playing with the styling), improved how communities and persons are fetched from remote instances (less API remote object not found errors) and some performance optimizations.

Changes

  • Draft posts and comments
  • inline video player (now muted and doesn’t pause other audio sources)
  • better post truncation (ends on a word end when possible)
  • Inbox no longer limited to the first page, added infinite scroll
  • Post list now displays a small page header every 20 posts (clicking jumps to the top)
  • Enabling full usernames (@instance) now uses the username and not the display name
  • Fixed an issue where some comments weren’t showing up in large threads.
  • post images now fade in (less flash)
  • Fixed an issue where posting a comment would stay at the edit page

    Hi, Is there a way to manually set the download path for all downloaded pictures and videos?

      Edit: that’s weird. Thanks for the feedback!

      Edit2: it looks normal in the web browser weirdly enough.

    Two things I miss from sync:

    1. After hiding a post, a small popup that lasts for 10s allowing you to unhide it in case the swipe was a mistake

    2. A section in your profile to see hidden posts in case you want to come back to something

    Thanks! Fantastic app!

    Connect has fast become my chosen lemmy app, thanks for the hard work!

    One thing I miss from Relay is the comment navigator buttons floating at the bottom, any chance of a feature like this?

    Can we please make it so when we block an instance (usually for feed reasons) we don’t block every users comments on every thread?

    Thanks for the fast updates.

    One request I have is that for when opening web content, the title is just “Web”. I think it would be better to show a URL, or “Web - [URL]”, to double check that the loaded URL is the expected one. Maybe long press to copy the URL. Maybe a progress bar too.

    Thanks again.
