FAQ

When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
How do I join the beta?
- We are currently testing our new 2.0 codebase on TestFlight. We have two beta groups: a weekly group that receives the current state of our development branch every week, and a stable group that receives a curated pre-release build at the end of each development cycle.
- Join the weekly beta
- Join the stable beta
How do I join the dev team?
- Head over to our recruitment channel, or go straight to our GitHub and read CONTRIBUTING.md to get started.

Suggestion: Tapping an image should open the image, not the post (lemmy.world)

If you scroll by an image and tap on it, then I think the image should open up in full screen.

Right now tapping the image on the feed opens the post where I then have to tap it again. This isn't the worst but doesn't a feel smooth. Especially because a slight delay is required between the two taps. If you mess that up then you have to tap it three times.

I still really want a way to copy the image to share. And I know the fancy post image from Apollo is a rather high bar but it was a godsend to share the post contents with a specific comment to friends. I’ve got a Swift UI project at work so after I get back into the swing of writing Swift again it might be rather nice to contribute.

No offense to the team at Mlem or any indie app developer but not using Apollo has made me really appreciate Christian's skill. Apollo was a masterclass for simple yet functional and intuitive UX

I think Mlem is on track to be better than Apollo was at this rate. You gotta remember, Apollo had been released and in continued development for years. Mlem is around 2 months old

Agreed. You can’t compare any Lemmy apps to Apollo or RiF etc. They had years of feedback and development.

Where Mlem and Liftoff are at already is extremely impressive from both teams.
