Hi, Connect 1.0.59 brings a new profile page, improvements to how routes are handled within the app, and a host of new settings. I hope you like it!

I’m still thinking about what a ‘new to Lemmy’ onboarding might look like. Also I know some people reported issues with the markdown editor yesterday, if this version still have issues please add a comment and I’ll try and sort them out today!

What’s new

  • Community name and user name are now direct links, with a setting to disable it.

  • Added a quick link to the official community within the app

  • Added confirmation on exit app

  • Added swiping on the left edge of home will open the drawer.

  • The drawer navigation actions should be more responsive now

  • Added an option to adjust how nested comments look. Also I added a couple presets within Settings to change it. I hope you like the presets I’ve chosen.

  • Added some improvements to the profile page. Tabs for overall/posts/comments and a page header

  • Added some haptic feedback for swipe actions

Bugfixes

  • Fixed comment cards in the reply view are no longer clickable
  • Fixed a three dot menu being invisible (web)
  • Fixed some routing issues when creating a comment or editting a comment. Instead of the previous state being in history it should now show only the state after the change.

Also please let me know what you think of the colour palettes I’ve chosen for the comment lines. If you’re thinking of one that would be cool I’m happy to add it in :)

    Hello, I just heard about this app and tried it out. It’s instantly become my favorite as being most similar to RIF of the ones I’ve tried. I figured posting feedback and bugs to the current release thread will keep things the most organized.

    [Bug] Post titles do not display for me (Galaxy Fold 4) in open/closed mode. I’ve tried toggling through the various themes and post view styles with no luck. Screenshot

    [Request] When clicking on a comment, it expands to display ways to interact with it. If you click on another comment, the options for the previous comment remain visible. The “ActiveComment” should be the only one with visible options to conserve screen space.

      Hi, thanks for the feedback! If you change the ‘Font type for posts’ or ‘Post Titles above Images’ setting does that have any affect? Just trying to narrow down what might be causing the issue.

        Hey! Looks like disabling the post titles above images setting fixed it for me.

        Another silly bug: When the confirmation dialog to exit the application appears, tapping yes does nothing.
