Hi, I’m working on the next release and there’s a lot of changes so rather than just release it straight away I’d like your help! Hopefully this way those that don’t want the newest features can enjoy a more stable experience and those that want to play with new features can do so as well.

Here is the link to join:

edit: I won’t post the release notes until it fully releases in a couple days or so so as to not spoil anything :)

Beta 80:

New: I’m seeing 301 errors on pretty much every vote/comment/post I attempt through Lemmy.world. Seems fine on Jerboa & web.

Most of my previous issues seem fixed. Probably the most pressing preexisting bug I’m still seeing…

  • When I edit a long comment, I’m still seeing only the first 500 characters. Everything after that get removed. It’s anywhere there’s a & symbol in a comment. If you edit a comment with a & in it, it gets cut off at the &.

EDIT: Here’s all I see when I try to edit the comment above. Looks like just the first half of the comment…

Pushed a hotfix for the 301 errors issue (1.0.81, should be live now). And thanks for the screenshot! I’m checking it out now.

Thanks! On 82 currently…

  • 301 errors are fixed.
  • As a chronic comment editor, still anxiously awaiting the fix for comments getting chopped off
  • I like the visual tweaks on the header, but the second line often gets clipped on all but the smallest text size.

Thanks for the fixes it got a bit better, but still has issues

Post settings (in the info you talk about cards but the title is about the generell posts?)

  • a better preview is needed inside the post best would be a Picture. It doesn’t show what’s happen exactly if you choose “limit Thumbails Height”
  • “Post Titles above images” should be inside Post settings because if affects the behaving

Comment settings

  • Is it possible to add comment dividers preview?
  • What exactly does “Handedness” nothing happens for me

Generell

  • If you deactivate “Bottom Bar Navigation” you have no possibility anymore to switch between, local/Frontpage/all or your subscription, I need to active it to even use the app :/
  • The version No gets cut off inside the settings

I followed the link on Android and it took me to the version I already had installed and I didn’t see any “Join Beta” options. When will the new test version be out.

Edit: the second link just says I’m not able to access the software.

Edit 2: The exact message I get when using the second link is

“App not available for this account Your account isn’t currently eligible for this app’s testing program.”

How do I add my email to the testing program?

Edit 3: everything appears to be working correctly now. Thanks!

It seems it always uses active for listing and doesn’t change when you select a different sort
