First off, the icon contest is now closed! Thanks to everyone that submitted. Seriously, thank you. These are really awesome and it’s so cool to have icons created by the community. Next step: I’ll nominate 3 icons by end of week (hopefully sooner) and create a thread for the community to choose the winner :) More info to follow. https://lemmy.world/post/1287799
Next off, version 0.24.0!
Another release with some anticipated features!
Mark posts read on scroll
(disabled by default) you can now setup posts to be marked read when you scroll past them! This is a cool feature but will become even more useful when “hide read posts” is finished later this week.
Android mode (beta)
There’s now a setting to enable Android mode! Please keep in mind that it’s a beta isn’t finished! This is mainly getting the setting enabled so we can improve the styles and iterate. :) Let me know what you think! Do you prefer the iOS theme on Android? Do you prefer the Android theme on iOS? 😈
Show user instances
Did you even find it annoying that you had to tap into a user to determine the instance they’re on? Well now there’s a setting to show the instance URL of all users that aren’t on your instance! Super handy, thanks @rsammelson!

Wanted to say I really love that android look is available in the options now. I love it! It’s in beta so looking forward to how it changes over time. Personally, the ios look was a tiny thing I didn’t like about this app so I am happy I have the option to switch to android look.
Congrats on the new release. Each version gets better, and at this point I’m using it multiple times per day
When it comes to the Hide feature, here is my request:
Please allow us to change the swipe from Hide to Hide All Above, which would allow for mass Hiding
I know many want to “mark read and hide” as they scroll. I would prefer to have a little more control.
This and the equivalent of multi reddits are the only things I’m missing from Apollo and the old site
Great that finally having Android mode, it’s a good start but could be better. There are some screens that need special attention, like search or settings page. Have fate that it’ll be much better in a short time. Great work!
The scroll to hide is amazing! It’s just so natural and freeing. I love it, well done!
I don’t understand what the android mode is. I assumed it would look like the default android material you, uncolored since you probably can’t access the wallpaper. But instead it looks like nothing I have ever seen on android. Is this imitating some OEM skin or something?
