I've been playing around with Jerboa's UI trying to make it more consistent and readable

If i press on an image, i want it to be opened within Jerboa. Not exit & open in web browser. Could you & team kindly fix/ consider this?

[-] CookieJarObserver@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

Long press menu would also be cool, and it should definitely contain a download button

[-] sotimely@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 year ago

thank you for jerboa. one thing i would find convenient would be if it would remember where i scrolled to on a page. e.g. i scroll down on a users posts, i click a link. later i go back to the profile, gotta start at the top again.

I've just joined the community throught Jerboa, I like it but I miss a couple feature, and hope they can be implemented: ~~I use(d ?) Slide for reddit and a thing I like very much is to be able to fold comment threads so the scrolling becomes a bit more fluent letting me skip threads I don't find interesting~~ (Edit: I'm dumb, pressing the author name does the job).

I'd like to be able to choose default view (Local/All/Subscribed).

Either way, thank you very much for your work so far!

[-] XLRV@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

You can change the default view in your account settings, right from the app.

[-] Talia@feddit.it 0 points 1 year ago

Well, that doesn't work for me but it's the same from browser so I suppose it's not an app problem

[-] XLRV@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

I think I know why, I've downloaded the latest version from GitHub, and if you've downloaded it on the Play Store, it probably isn't updated yet to the last version, There's a F-Droid repo that is updated quickly as I heard, but I didn't try it this way.

[-] Talia@feddit.it 0 points 1 year ago

No, I've downloaded the F-Droid one just today, I don't think is that. But I managed to change the settings via browser using chromium instead of firefox, even if some buttons don't work here too. I'm convinced it's not a Jerboa problem since it reproduces on my pc browser. It looks like some buttons are not fully active

[-] XLRV@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

Strange, are you on Jerboa v 0.0.32? I don't know if changing the option via the website update the setting in the app too

[-] Talia@feddit.it 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yes it does, luckly. My version is 0.0.31 but the 32 isn't available in F-Droid yet, they usually need some time to check the versions, if with the next version it'll already be fixed il just patiently wait. After all I'm not expecting everything to work immediately in a v0.0.x.

Edit: actually, it only shows the updated configuration in the setting page but still shows the Local as default. I'll check with the next version if the problem will be solved

[-] XLRV@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

Yeah, the Lemmy dev said that the IzzyOnDroid repository for F-Droid has faster updates than the default repository, so that's probably why.

[-] Talia@feddit.it 1 points 1 year ago

Yay! I've updated and the problem is now fixed!

[-] tmpod@lemmy.pt 1 points 1 year ago

love the work! Jerboa has always been quite inconsistent, but this makes it much more visually appealing and clear. Can't wait to see the PR for this :)

[-] Wigglet@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Having an issue with images posting horizontal instead of vertical when taken on my phone. I feel like it's probably an easy fix, just something being read funny from the meta data or something? Idk I'm not that clever but I would love if someone fixed it.

[-] bappity@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

not sure if it already existed and didn't work before but THANK YOU for adding the ability to collapse comment threads!

[-] limeaide@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

You can hold horizontally by the username to collapse the comment thread

[-] pitninja@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

On the newest version, you can tap anywhere on a comment to collapse. I like it because it's much more discoverable even if people figure it out by accident their first time.

[-] jarfil@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I was trying to do that (used to it from Relay) and was about to ask why it wasn't a feature. Updating right away.

[-] Frederic@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Why is there no doc on this?

[-] pitninja@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I couldn't tell you 🤷 I'm not sure if it documented in Boost for Reddit either and I couldn't tell you how I'd discovered it at this point. But you're right, I'd say it's at least worth mentioning in the app description in the Play Store (though the number of people actually read those closely probably isn't high).

[-] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

I know this is probably just me, but could we have an option for a circle button shape? I can't stand those corporate rounded squares. I'm keeping Keeping a bunch of apps very out of date on my phone from before when they started switching from circles to these.
