Hey guys! Sorry for being AWOL for the past few days. I’ve been taking some personal time and stepped away for a bit. Going to be cleaning up some more stuff and pushing out some good stuff to you guys soon.

This build here - for real this time - offers significant performance enhancements. There is more to be done, but this is a great start.

Here’s some changes:

  • Hide username in the tab bar
  • Some context menu refactors
  • Add bug report option
  • We have replaced the old UI library with a new one. There are still some quirks to work out, and we will be handling those over the next few days. This offers quite a significant performance boost over the last library.
  • Using more stable variables to prevent unnecessary re-renders. This is one part of the performance improvements.
  • Fix infinite refreshing attempts of an empty community
  • Added option to delete posts. This was something I threw in tonight and will be finishing edit post tomorrow. I also have the mod tools ready to go, just a matter of adding them where they need to be in the menus
  • Comment chains are collapsed after either the first 4 2nd level comments or after 3 replies to a 2nd level comment. Much easier to scroll through comments now. This is a WIP so there might be issues. Let us know.
  • Added a comment jump button. Speaks for itself. Might have some issues and is still a WIP. Let us know if anything goes wrong
  • Should have fixed a few crashes that were getting reported while I was away.

Again, sorry for the downtime. I’ll be more active over the next week and we should see some big stuff.

Apologies if I’ve missed this, but is support for inbox integration planned in the near future? Noticed the other day I messaged someone on desktop, they replied, I saw the notification dot in Memmy but I couldn’t see the message.

You’re doing amazing work, but just one question - can we get an option to please show the upvote/downvote tallies again rather than the combined total?

Only showing a total means a comment with 500 up and 501 down will just show as -1, the same as a comment with 0 up and 1 down, which isn’t meaningful imo. It also leads to the typical Reddit behaviour of “upvote high rated opinions and downvote low rates opinions”.

There’s a toggle for this under Appearance.

Edit: Also, this wasn’t the intention but the setting was enabled by default now (before it was disabled). I’ll be reverting that change as I don’t like it either.

I’m super onboard with whatever you decide to do, but I’m not sure if this is a bug or intended functionality based on release notes, so figure I’ll ask here.

Since this release, best I can tell, up/downvotes are merged into a single number. I was using this app specifically because it kept them separated while others didn’t. Is this going to be a permanent UX change?

I only ask because I really really don’t like it (part of the draw of Lemmy is the separate up and downvote counts, and I actively do not want them combined, for mental health/groupthink reasons). I’d like to know if I should look for a different app (literally zero pressure intended) or if perhaps you plan to add a toggle or something for people who don’t/do want the condensed numbers.

If you end up adding a toggle (or there exists one presently I have not found), imho the default function of separating up/downvotes should be the default here also (this isn’t Reddit and suppressing that fact doesn’t help people with the change; it needs to feel different to be different), but I’m not out here developing an app myself, since I don’t have the skills, so take that feedback for what it is.

I appreciate your work either way, thank you for doing what you do!

There’s a toggle for this under Appearance. Let me see if it got changed (accidentally) to default to enabled. If that happened, it isn’t the intention.

Edit: Yea, it was changed. I’m reverting that back. Anyway, you can just disable the toggle for now. Thanks for the heads up.

Also it seems I can’t just select/“click”/press comments from my post history to view them in situ anymore.

I can’t see context for anything…
