Boost For Lemmy

Very nice. Within five minutes of using it I've removed other Lemmy apps from my phone.

It would be nice to have something that guides you through finding communities in other servers as I don't feel like I'm seeing them all.

It looks like the "c" community links aren't working. Like this: .

The Trending Communities posts are full of these if you need more examples ().

Edit: weird, my comment links aren't working. They're showing as normal text for me, but when you go to copy, select text, you can see that they're hyperlinks.

It's a great start!

It's great, I bought ad free just for your efforts. But 2 problems so far:

1. error on uploading any image of any dimensions in any sublemmy.

2. can't see the videos, not in preview Mode, nor in full-screen Mode.

What can i/we do?

This look great! Was struggling with Jerboa for the last few days. I gave up and got into Tildes instead!!

This feels familiar!! 👍 Awesome

When adding images to my profile (both my profile pic and my banner image), they get rotated 90⁰ counter-clockwise.

This has been a very good idea!

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. 👍

😙👌

So far it feels solid to me. Thanks so much for your hard work

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

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.

Bug/Issue Report:

Been noticing a couple minor things over the past couple days.

• When clicking the tray notification for messages, it sends me to the mentions part of my inbox not the unread part.

• Refreshing a profile, or inbox, is inconsistent. Often I need to pull down multiple times for it to update and even then sometimes the update is still older than what's current, requiring more pulls. For a profile this can mean not showing current posts or posts with incorrect comment/score. For inbox this means disappearing messages or not knowing you've got a new one.

• Speaking of inbox, if I mark a message as read it'll stop any notifications or badge counting. However the message will still occasionally "light up" like it's unread. Doesn't reactivate any notifications, and the app seems to know it's not really new, but it does happen.

Feedback:

• I'm guessing this will be added later, but at the moment you can't edit titles of posts with the app. If I click edit it just says mark nsfw or delete.

Otherwise I love the app like I loved old boost. The only other thing would be themes but that isn't even remotely important this early in development.

Loving the app! I'm having trouble swiping away media. It doesn't feel sensitive enough and usually takes me several swipes. I've enabled the tap to close which works amazingly but muscle memory wants to swipe.

Recommendation/Hope: it would be amazing to have a media peek where I can tap and hold on a thumbnail and it enlarges the picture. Awesome app, thanks!

Should old boost users who have paid for boost for reddit, get the premium by default??
