Welcome to the Mlem 2.0 Feedback Megathread! This is where we will be posting changelogs for the Weekly TestFlight (the Stable Pre-Release changelogs will get full posts), so check back here to see what’s new!
This is also the place to post feedback on the Weekly beta (or you can just open an issue on our GitHub if that’s your style).
Please be aware that this is an early beta build, may be missing features you consider essential. See the “Roadmap” section of our 2.0 release post for more details.

We got a ton of great feedback from our initial release, and have implemented a number of new features and bug fixes:
- Added mark read on scroll (Settings -> General)
- Added a default feed setting (Settings -> General)
- Added a setting to adjust haptic behavior (Settings -> General)
- Fixed the lock icon being the wrong color
We’ve got a lot more in the works, so if you commented yesterday with a bug or feature request that isn’t mentioned here, stay tuned! We expect to be releasing builds fairly rapidly over the next few days.

This is the initial beta release. We’re still bringing 2.0 up to feature parity with 1.0–this build should have everything you need to browse and interact with Lemmy. Please note that post creation and moderation tools are not currently supported in the 2.0 build–post creation is in active development and moderator tools are a high-priority item, so if you want to join the beta but those are important to you, check back in a week or two!
We’ve also got some new features:
- Markdown support
- Tiled post layout
- Keep place on account switch (allows you to switch accounts without fully reloading the app)
- Guest accounts
- Color themes
Check out our 2.0 release post for more details on the new release.
I can’t reproduce this issue at the moment; it seems to be working fine for me on an iOS 18 iPad simulator. Which part of it doesn’t work - do the “Block Community” and “Block user” buttons not show up, or do they show up but not do anything when tapped? Thanks
Edit: it also seems to work correctly on iOS 17.5
When trying to block, the window that comes up is extremely small. I will try uninstalling and reinstalling on my ipad. (You can barely see the little window at the bottom in my attached screenshot)
