What do you guys think?
Now that’s sexy. Made me forget about the porn subreddits that I left behind
Someone’s been looking at Sync for Reddit to get some good ideas 😁
This is how I will end up staying at Lemmy
The creator of sync said that he’s considering adapting the app to use Lemmy. Fingers crossed.
i’m sure that will be a monumental task but here’s to hoping!
That would be huge for lemmy if the 3rd party reddit apps tried to adapt to lemmy.
I’m going to miss sync. I bought pro in January of 2014.
I’d love an option to load top-level comments only by default.
IDK if this is possible, but can the downvote button be removed or hidden if I’m part of a community that disables downvotes? I’m afraid that every time I misclick it the admins are gonna boot me for being a negative nancy.
This was fixed in this PR: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/390, it should be available in the next app update
wow! that looks really nice! thanks
Just a note to say thanks for your hard work on making Jerboa, really enjoying using it.
The fact that Jerboa makes me click an Imgur link rather than embedding the Imgur content under this post when I click it feels like a possible area for improvement.
In the meantime, you could use ImgurViewer. Setting it as a default app makes it work pretty seamlessly.
edit: didn’t realise I’d linked the Spanish page, oops lol
Looks good!
One suggestion:
Can you make an option to hide the controls for comments (up/downvote, permalink and so on…) and make them only pop up when I press on the comment?
When reading the comments of a post, the controls take away a lot of screen space. I don’t want to interact with very comment, so hiding the controls would declutter the comment section imho
Example of what I mean in Sync for reddit:
If you long tap the comment, it hides the buttons.
But I agree that it should be hidden by default. And swap the long tap and short tap behavior.
Thanks! What version are you using? I’m on 0.0.32 and long tapping (or short tapping for that matter) just hides the whole comment
I’m on 0.0.33 and long tapping works
Interesting! I’m using the f-droid version which only has 32 right now. Does play store have 33?
[Edit] ok nevermind, had to refresh the package sources on f droid and got .33
I get the same long press behaviour as you guys now. Wish it would affect the whole thread at least and not just a single comment. Kinda useless right now I feel
It looks great, thank you very much for your work!
If you’re looking for inspiration on UI design, you might check out Sync for Reddit while it’s still active. It’s one of the best apps I’ve ever used.
Relay also has excellent UI. I tried pretty much every Reddit app available on Android and kept coming back to Relay.
Yup only Reddit app I’ve consistently used for years. None of the others were quite the same
+1 for Relay. Great UX
Relay was the only app I could use consistently. I tried all the others. There is a Reddit API proxy that someone was creating for Lemmy that has been linked to /u/DBrady - hopefully he uses it to port his app here too.
Loved it! Been using this client for a while and I like it currently but I like that better.
Great work devs
Thank you :) I’m a third party but I’ll try to get my changes added to the official app
The fact you can use Android password manager is already a huge improvement.
can i please filter out image posts i think memes are extremely annoying
You could block the meme subs I guess.
if this place is anything like le reddit then thay will not work because they will be almost everywhere
deleted by creator
If you really really don’t like memes, make your own frontpage without the memes. Browse the meme page every now and then to discover new communities.
nice, but looks too flat imo. I rather all black or have some more thickness.
I added a monochrome mode
Since you are asking, here’s my primary 2 complaints about the UI so far that so far seem unaddressed:
- not having placeholders for community icons and user avatars is jarring. This pushes the text around which makes each card slightly missaligned with the last depending on if there are icons/avatars. This gets tiring to read. It doesn’t need to be fancy. It could be a black box, or even just padding.
- in the same vein, it’s hard to see what post/comment link is in what instance. This is especially important because different moderation rules apply to different instances. Also, celebrate the diversity of federation!
I was thinking about the placeholder icon thing for a while, it’s a big pet peeve of mine too but I’m not sure what to put instead.
We talking about for users or communities? I think a Lemmy mouse or a jerboa would do the trick for now
