Of the many Lemmy clients I've tried, Thunder is the one I like the best, but the one place I have nits is the creating a comment experience.

After typing the comment you have close you keyboard, to have any hope of the create button being visible (if your comment is really short) and then scroll all the way back up to the top. Isn't the bottom the obviously better place for this button?

Even worse, if in trying to scroll the screen, you accidentally hit the little horizontal bar at the top, you just lose your comment.

Finally, it seems to always lose my place in the thread and put me back at the top after entering a comment.

Hey! As mentioned on my recent post, I'll try to get some pre-releases/nightlies on GitHub within the next couple of days. Unfortunately, setting up the beta program on Google Play will take longer and is not something that I am actively working on at the moment, but I do want that to be a thing in the future (long term)
