Bless you, I am so excited for that update!!
Huge fan of Thunder - it's still in alpha so it's missing features, but it's slick as heck and the developer is crunching out great updates already based on feedback on the GitHub page/their community page! Using Jerboa mostly for now, but likely will be using Thunder as my main in a few weeks :)
Thunder is spectacular and it's still in alpha! Dev seems super nice. I'm still mostly using Jerboa, but Thunder will likely be my daily driver once it hits beta :) it's just so slick!
Another one I forgot to mention was another feature from Boost - that app also has the up/down arrows to let you quickly navigate the parent threads on a post's comment view, with the handy additional feature that long-pressing on the up arrow zooms you back up to the top of the page. Always appreciated that feature!
I believe this was Lemmynade originally!
Crucial frolicking pro tip!
Man, I know it's a different app but I'd be so thrilled if the Boost dev decided to jump ship and make a Lemmy app. I tried so many reddit apps and Boost ended up being everything I wanted and more.
I started rocking a Pebble Time about a year ago with my Android phone and I absolutely love it! If you can find one with decent battery life and get Rebble set up on it, it'll still serve you well (in my experience, at least).
Yesss, I'm hoping so too!
Would love to see the eventual 8a being even smaller, but I won't hold my breath :( love my Pixel 4a!
I'm surprised I never really noticed this, but it explains why my brain freezes up for a moment every time I go to search for something in a streaming service, haha. Very odd, very unintuitive!
I personally like that users aren't shown in my feed because it makes list view so clean looking, but it absolutely makes sense to at least have it as an option! I'd be kinda into seeing usernames when browsing communities and clicking into posts, moreso than in my main feed, but that might be getting too granular.
You should file a GitHub ticket about this!
