These threads used to be really useful back on Reddit.

I'm currently finishing off full app translations for the next release along with lots of the usual bug fixes.

What should I prioritise next?

Cheers, Lj

As far as issues, I experience occasional crashes (once or twice per day, maybe) when opening images. I haven't found a pattern as-yet but I will try to take note of an example next time it happens.

For new features, maybe push notifications of new messages?

Still loving the app, thanks for all you do!

I would love a Scroll to top button when browsing an instance, or to have an option to Subscribe without scrolling all the way to the top. I tend to visit a new instance, check out a couple pages, and then subscribe. But by then the Subscribe button is really far away.

Emoji support would be :chefs-kiss:

It's a small QOL suggestion, a "Previous" and "Next" comment button when traversing through comments. I used to use RIF prior to coming to Lemmy Sync and always liked being able to jump from comment to comment.

A rework of font sizing is something I really want to add too.

Maybe a little slider under general.

Unless I'm missing something, the scrub bar and other information never go away while watching a video?

[โ€“] ljdawson@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

You can long press the video for now but I'll be giving the media player a revamp at some point.

Can we have notifications about replies/messages at least when opening the app up? (It doesn't have to poll all the time for them, but hourly polling or something can be an option).

Does the API let you explore an instance?

[โ€“] ljdawson@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You can already do this on the live version.

I don't get notifications when a message is in my inbox, but I have notifications enabled.

Filtering "All" by language. I know it's a GIGO situation, but I think I'd take the win.

[โ€“] Chozo@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Do you plan on supporting logging in from Kbin instances once the API is live?

User tagging similar to Reddit Enhancement Suite. Specifically keeping a count of up/down votes of other users and displaying next to their comments. Also when tagging users it saves a link to the comment causing you to tag them.

The current user tagging feature is the largest reason I subscribe to sync Ultra. It's really one of the only things that helped out with the spam aside from keeping to smaller communities.

On behalf of all the perverts out there, how about a toggle filter for only showing NSFW posts. Would be nice for...ahem... "discovery" on the everything feed.

Assuming it's not already possible that is.

[โ€“] ljdawson@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think that's called making an account on pornlemmy lol.

[โ€“] metalmirror@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 2 years ago

Fair point, not a lot of NSFW on other instances. But there might be and I'll never know! ๐Ÿฅบ

[โ€“] Macallan@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How about being able to move the up/down vote buttons to the right side for comments. And make them a little bit bigger.

Just want to make sure you're aware of this: https://discuss.online/post/1294119

I cannot connect to discuss.online as a home site from Sync at the moment, though I can browse it from other home sites. It is not an issue unique to me. The admins of the instance have come to the conclusion it is a lemmy/3p client issue rather than an instance issue, and that clients it breaks now will break more completely with future lemmy rollouts.

I'd like the option to exclude a community from an instance filter. There's a community I'm interested in in an instance that is 90% garbage.

If a subscribed community could bypass the filters, that'd be fantastic

[โ€“] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

I would like to be able to hide top level comments down to their username line only so that i don't see the comment but can unhide it if i want.

[โ€“] adihex@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Change logo to indicate the lemmy connection..This is not at all a serious request, just a personal request fuelled by OCD to get everything as connected as possible.

[โ€“] EnglishMobster@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Sometimes, when scrolling, I get "Your filters have blocked all the posts on this page" or "You have read all the posts on page 17" or whatever.

The pop-up gives either a "Next page" or a "Retry" button (IIRC). When I press it, I'm able to continue just fine.

Can there be a setting added (or something) that just auto-presses that button for me? I'm cool with just scrolling forever, and it seems a little silly that I get stopped by that prompt but pressing 1 little button fixes it.

Does the floating navigation bar exist on the Lemmy app? I feel like I had it at one point but I could be mistaken. I love being able to just from parent to parent comment on some threads.

[โ€“] ljdawson@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[โ€“] Resolved3874@lemdro.id 5 points 2 years ago

Knew it was there somewhere. Thank you! Idk why I couldn't find that before posting lol

Sometimes images don't allow me to resize them. Closing and reopening the image fixes it, but I don't know what causes it initially. More a minor annoyance than anything, but I still wanted to bring attention to it since I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere.
