For all the amazing work and effort that is being poured into the fediverse in the past several weeks, and in particular what we users can see with the Voyager app - this deserves to be said with great gratitude!

❤️ Voyager is such a polished app ❤️

Just small details like how the app takes you one step back for each time you press the “Posts” button, from comment to post, from post to feed, to top of feed, and finally, to communities.

Much elegant, very wow 🐶

Voyager seriously seems to be the most polished app right now.

Yeah it really is. Zero issues atm. Other apps have one or two great features that makes you peak their way but lack the overall polish.

I really liked an app that incorporated swipe actions over the the bottom bar to reach certain functions.

Stand alone APK to be independent of Playstore.

I would love to see an option to open articles in browser reader view. I always have to manually switch to reader each time I open an external article.

I miss the option to not hide read posts when viewing communities, but only in the aggregated feed. Also showing usernames in compact view in the feed would be nice. I’d like to be able to recognize spammers quickly so I can block them.

Haptic feedback, at least in the local version.

Edit: it’s been added since I last checked ☺️

Is it possible to be able to press to highlight/select on any text on screen? To do that now I need to reply to a comment, then select from that box and do my copy, then cancel my reply.

It is the best, most-seamless PWA I’ve ever used. Wow.

I think I can say that if the Voyager app didn’t exist, I probably would have given up on Lemmy in the early days. Lemmy really started to work for me when I installed Voyager.

I get what you mean but we’re still very much in the early days of Lemmy and the Fediverse right now lol

Voyager is quickly ceasing to be my Methadone for my lost Apollo/Reddit; it is becoming my heroine all over.

MOAR!

THANK YOU(!) to my wonderful dealers who cook my fix and slowly improve it each and every day!

Love to all of them!

It truly is a very well-polished app. I’m currently hoping between apps rapidly as I try out their different features, but in terms of UI/UX Voyager is definitely one of my favorites.
