Hey everyone.]

So update 98/99 has gone live which fixes the crashes (thanks for the reports).

I'm gearing up for a pretty sizable release but just wanted to check in and ask if there was any issues you're having that I should know about or any new feature requests.

Sorry for the bad comms but I'm making my way through lots of messages and posts on here. Thanks for the patience as I get through these all.

Cheers, Lj

The only bug I'm having with Sync for Lemmy is that it does lots of wakelocks in the background, I had to set the app to restricted mode in the battery settings as a workaround.

I don't know if this is because it tries to fetch notifications (a feature not available yet) or IDK.

Setting it up to "restricted" instead of "optimized" basically fixes idle issues, although I can see the app refresh a lot more than when it is optimized...

Sync for Reddit never had this issue, I always had it in optimized mode and it barely was active in the background.

Pictures for reference:

EDIT: I am experiencing this issue with AOSP, with MIUI I did not, but I'm guessing it is only because MIUI is more aggressive with apps in the background.

EDIT 2: Also I'm seeing a new gap just below the main post in the newest version 😅

I also noticed a gap, and I'm wondering if it's where the ad banner is now. I really hope not and that this is just a visual bug, because it's pretty glaring and distracting.

Sadly I just corroborated it, and yeah, it is an ad :/

Hopefully dev will get rid of it, I think it was enough with the ads in the main feed.

Even Boost ads are not that distracting.
