Umm... Redgifs stopped working
Dad please turn the porn back on
Fix is going live. I completely rewrote this part and should be able to fix it remotely in future without deploying a new apk.
I'm partly colorblind and it's super hard for me to see when I upvoted or downvoted a post. Just making the up or down arrow bolder (or circled) once it's been clicked would fix the issue completely for me and all types of colorblind people.
Thank you for the great work 💛
Can i ask if you meant to put a yellow heart or did you thought you were putting a red one ?
Hello, I'm a slut and I'd like to be able to upload NSFW pictures again ❣️
I'll get that enabled again 🫡
Any option about block NSFW content during hours (work) instead of having to toggle on/off?
Just chiming in to say thanks for the update and all the hard work!
Changing default sort to hot does not stick for me.
Redgifs is broken (as is tradition) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The biggest thing I'd wish for is full markdown support, stuff like spoiler tags, superscript and tables is still not working properly and it would be nice if it did.
I also don't know if this is a bug others experience or if I have messed something up on my device, but clicking community links sometimes opens up the link in browser instead of in Sync.
Finally, highlighting new comments on a thread re-visit would be a dream, but last I heard it wasn't supported by the backend. But maybe an option to highlight comments made during the last X minutes as a sort of hack?
Noted, I think its probably time to completely replace the old markdown processor.
As for tables, how are they not working right?
Do you have an example of a link that opens the browser?
He lives!
I thought I made a post, but it didnt get any replies and doesnt show up on the community posts for me.
But I was running into some posts where the image fails to load, like this one
https://lemmy.world/post/12685097
While the thumbnail sometimes loads, the image gives me that error.
Also been running into a lot of images that say “image was actually a webpage” or something along those lines.
Thanks!
I'm eagerly waiting for separate upvote and downvote counters 😼 but let me know if you were only asking for features not discussed previously to shut up next time
Nothing to report or add, I just appreciate you!

I have a feature request. Harmonic for hackernews has the option to open a url directly on archive.org, which I think is a pretty neat feature. Would it be possible to add this?
How would that work exactly?
Like this link https://google.com would open https://archive.org/details/google.com ?
You can use the wayback machine api to retrieve the latest snapshot of a particular url, which is useful to evade paywalls.
Perfect. I'll add support.
Good to see you're still alive! Looking forward to future updates and improvements.
Just wanted to say thanks for the post, even if it was a quick one to say releases are coming. I had been considering signing up for your paid version but was hesitant to pull the trigger because I feared the project had been abandoned. Since it's not, I'm signing up now. Appreciate all the work you put into the app!
Is there a way to make "deleted by user" stand out more as a system message? The current styling makes it look like they literally commented "deleted by user"
Thank you for making this app 💜💜💜
I'd love it if clicking on the thumbnail of an image opened the raw image, instead of the compressed view, so instead I have to go into the post and click the image there for full resolution. It's especially noticeable for larger images with small text.
The only bug I'm having with Sync for Lemmy is that it does lots of wakelocks in the background, I had to set the app to restricted mode in the battery settings as a workaround.
I don't know if this is because it tries to fetch notifications (a feature not available yet) or IDK.
Setting it up to "restricted" instead of "optimized" basically fixes idle issues, although I can see the app refresh a lot more than when it is optimized...
Sync for Reddit never had this issue, I always had it in optimized mode and it barely was active in the background.
Pictures for reference:
EDIT: I am experiencing this issue with AOSP, with MIUI I did not, but I'm guessing it is only because MIUI is more aggressive with apps in the background.
EDIT 2: Also I'm seeing a new gap just below the main post in the newest version 😅
I also noticed a gap, and I'm wondering if it's where the ad banner is now. I really hope not and that this is just a visual bug, because it's pretty glaring and distracting.
Using Boost for Lemmy as the example here.
Since release Sync just hasn't been able to handle tables. Every other app I use does it no problem, but sync really struggles with it.
In Sync for Reddit we had the ability to view previously upvoted posts. I don't know if Lemmy supports that, but that was a feature I used often to go back to something. Thanks
Can we have the swipe mode for pictures that we used to have in Sync for Reddit?
I'm hoping the new update will include the new "scaled" sorting option. I think it will really help support smaller communities on Lemmy if more people use it.
Features wise, full mod tools would be awesome, but I figure you've got that on the list already. Same with the latest lemmy stuff like instance blocking at the account level.
Beyond that, the only thing I can think of is more granular control over theming. I finally found a set-up that's working for me, but I know it took some fiddling that could have taken less time if I had been able to tweak background colors, or whatever. I've seen other people talk about that for sync, as well as other apps that a don't even have the options sync does. From a usability perspective, contrast between sections of the ui can be the difference between literal headaches and a relaxing scroll.
But, again, that's pretty low priority imo.
Sometimes, when people post multiple photos, only the first one loads
Images like the one in this post don't automatically open at full resolution. There's a discussion in the comments about the steps to get it to open at full resolution.
Seems to work for me. Seems to display the higher resolution in a mosaic. As I zoom I can see the text sharpen.
I'll add another feature request that I forgot: instance browsing. Being able to see a list of communities within a remote instance would be nice (preferably sorted by subscribers like in the web UI). Being able to see the Local feed from a selected remote instance would also be useful. I think both those features could help with community discovery.
EDIT: disregard most of this, I was blind to the instances button. It would still be nice to see the communities-list on an instance sorted by size.
I'd still like to see OpenBoard keyboard get to auto-complete/correct in the title field (and Swiftkey, I've heard). I don't know what's up with that, but it makes me sad.
The spoiler tags could use an overhaul so they are consistent with the rest of Lemmy. (Obviously handled in the markdown overhaul you mentioned)
Being able to edit image posts, or the titles of posts in the app would be appreciated.
The other thing that's on my list is the inbox thing. There's the discrepancy in badges for unread - bottom nav bar gets the badge, but the other views don't seem to; there's also the crashing when I change to other views in my inbox if I get there from the left drawer or the top "More Actions" area. (Pretty sure I made issue tracker reports on those.)
Welcome back, LJ! Thanks for all the work you put into Sync - it is such a good interface and user experience overall, and I love it.
