Welcome!

Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.

And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome ๐ŸคŸ๐Ÿ˜

With the PieFed API support having been enabled for about a week now, a lot of you have been trying Interstellar for the first time.

What do you feel is missing? What is the feature you would like added most? What pain points do you run into? Also, feel free to include what you already like about the app.

This is no guarantee, btw, I just want to get some feedback from y'all and hopefully we can find some points of improvement.

Lastly, there are a lot of PieFed specific features that are not supported by the API, and we obviously wouldn't be able to add support to Interstellar until they are in the API. We can still discuss them here if you'd like. Those features include Feeds, Topics, Polls, Flairs, Tags, admin/mod tools, and probably more.

if we change the default to hide the UI, then it would also do that on larger devices,

Understood. Let's keep it as an option. I think the majority of Interstellar users would be on mobile.

Do other apps have back gestures as well?

It really depends on the app. I use Voyager and it supports back gestures everywhere.

IMO, back gestures should be handled by the OS

Unfortunately iOS handles back gestures differently. The problem is that without back gesture I need to tap the upper left corner every time I want to go back. With huge phones these days I have to use two hands to operate it.

PieFed webapp supports back gesture (via Safari), and it remains my app of choice for this reason.
