Is is possible to opt out from comments notification on own posts? I didn't find the checkbox as I used to have in the old reddit app.

It's a great start!
Images are able to be posted in comments. Ability to press and make them bigger would be useful.
Understood would be difficult with the press to collapse feature.

I have never used boost for Reddit but I am posting from it right now and first impressions are IT IS AWESOME! An easy ad free purchase from me!
Only issue I'm having is random timeouts, but I think that just a lemmy thing in general. Nice app
I'm excited to switch over and will definitely report any wonkiness.
Not sure if it's Boost or YouTube Revanced at fault but got the following error when I tried to open a Lemmy link to a video: https://postimg.cc/q6sW77x0
Also, the sign-up journey is a bit confused. Clicking sign up takes me to joinlemmy, which then just lands me on a home page for whichever instance I click. Might be more user friendly to prompt for a choice of instance and take them directly to that instance's sign up page. And maybe have a button for "not sure? Explore here" or something similar that would take you to joinlemmy
Being taken to the instance that just selected makes pretty firm logical sense to me, personally. Is the sign up process/path uniform across all instances?
The few I checked were, but not sure if the path is defined as part of the Lemmy protocol.

I don't know if it has been posted. After try many lemmy client its end to sync and boost.
But compared both apps there is one difference that I feel, scrolling performance is better on sync. On boost feel little bit lag/stutter.
Else just customization like other comments mentioned.
I hope it will be fixed in next build.
Thanks for build great apps. ๐
Is there an option for the comments where I can just long-press to select and copy text instead of needing to go into a copy menu and then using the select text option? That can be bit tedious, and I typically copy most longer comments and send them to my voice-aloud app for TTS. It's definitely the main feature I miss about the old RIF app - easy text selection and perfect Bluetooth keyboard/mouse support.
A minor ui glitch(?)
When scrolling through posts I noticed that occasionally the post summary would slightly scroll up cropping the first line in the summary.
After playing with it for a few minutes, I can reproduce the behavior by pressing on the summary, holding the press and dragging left or right, continuing to hold the press and dragging up or down.
It seems I tend to scroll with a slight diagonal motion instead of a pure up and down motion.
Screen shots showing the glitch: The post in godot@programming.dev, the "hey guys..." line gets scrolled off screen with the "diagonal scroll motion"
Normal post look
Glitched look

Does your password have more than 60 chars? If that's the case, type only the first 60 chars. This should be fixed for the next version.
If not, let me know the error message.
Looking forward to trying this! I'm unable to log in on this account currently as there isn't a TOTP field :)

Thank you! you have done an amazing job! ๐ท bought the app right away. Not a bug but a question / request : will you implement a 'History' tab in the sidebar, like there was in boost for reddit? I find it very useful having the ability to scroll through posts I've viewed but not saved.. especially after nights my mind wasn't so clear.. Thanks again rmayayo! ๐ท
I also can't seem to press and hold on taps for images when in the full-exapanded screen
Wondering if you plan to add swipe left from the right side of the phone to go back to the last/prior comment page
