Yeah, this was a good platform and model for reddit because it was mostly stable, lemmy is rapidly changing and evolving.
This is my biggest issue here. And it also worked fine with how much cheaper the app was before. I didn't mind him working on this as a side project. But between subscriptions and large fees, I just don't understand how we've seen a total lack of development or pause on development here, especially when we're reaching such a juncture where there are broken things about this app.
Imo its kinda fucked to have a subscription model but not be updated even semi close to often.
I hear you but I've been paying out for the subscription features and keeping an eye on their uptime.
Is there something in particular you were waiting for me to add / fix? Cheers
It's also relatively tiny so a bit unreasonable to expect things to be updated daily.
I'm not really seeing any major issues anyway - what is so broken that OP is so annoyed about? Only thing im aware of is the Instances button not working, which yeah that's true. Not really a major issue though?
Device information
Go ahead and look at this community and all the other posts about broken issues. And look at how much more have been cropping up as lemmy gets further and farther along with being updated but sync does not
Just repeating my previous comment. Was there something in particular you were waiting for?
cheers
Another small issue is that search for communities doesnt work unless the community you search for is already loaded in the list.
Logged, will aim to fix for the next release.
While we're on the subject. When I'm submitting a post and choosing the community I almost always want to be searching instead of scrolling my list. Could it ever be an optional feature that tapping the community field automatically pulls up the search and my keyboard? Minor in the grand scheme of things of course.
Also, I'm sure you've seen but Scaled and Controversial aren't selectable sorting algorithms in the list.
Instead of tapping the search at the top?
Yeah, I have a very large phone and small hands, like I said, very minor, low priority thing. Please fix up the markup first such as the superscript and adding subscript first.
This was the impression I had too and I managed to fix the instance issue remotely after reports came in.
Yeah the app is not broken whatsoever... It is very steady if you ask me, I'm only missing the newest sort types, for that we can use another app in the meanwhile... We have plenty and we should be glad that we have a lot of alternatives and that we don't have Spez here.
You can actually use Scaled sort on your frontpage in Sync, though it is a little finicky. If you select Scaled as your default sorting method on the webUI in a browser it will work properly when you open Sync. If you switch to another sort while using Sync you have to restart the app to get back to Scaled, though, since it doesn't appear in the list.
Was there something I missed? The dec update added support for the .19 lemmy changes.
Cheers
You missed adding the Scaled and Controversial sort options to the drop-down list.
Will patch that tomorrow. Cheers
Thanks for your continued work. This is still the best app and fixing these little rough edges will make it that much better.
If there's anything else let me know!
Those are all the main ones off the top of my head but I'll think about it.
