Mlem does not like my iPad Pro at all. Maybe it's the aspect ratio but images are zoomed in and text is getting cut off. It's basically unusable. Is it a problem for all iPad users or is it a user configuration error on my part?

Please add select text tool for main post and comments. If I can select text, when I can use translate service from iOS. Thanks for good app!

• grey text (easier on the eyes, especially in night mode at night); like post preview text in feed
• full height posts without post preview (headline view is too small)
• compact posts setting for general post view/display; similar to compact comments (community and user name only 1 line instead of 2, smaller avatar image, …)
• mark as read on scroll/open
• remember settings (post view size, show/hide read) per community

Thanks for all your work, these are just a few suggestions.

Would it be possible to update the TestFlight build whenever a new build is pushed to the App Store? This way, TestFlight users won't have to switch to the App Store version because the TestFlight version would always be at least as new.

I love this app, and keep coming back to it after testing other apps, too.

However, I find myself tapping thumbnails which I think are images, which instead open another site. Maybe it is my way of browsing, but I have noticed that other apps I display the content type, which makes for a more desirable browsing experience for me at least. Is this something that is in the works?

Download Mlem 1.0.1 on the App Store

We are absolutely thrilled to announce the release of our 1.0.1 update to the App Store. New in this update:

Editing Posts and Comments

You can now edit your posts and comments using the new button in the context menu. Groundbreaking, we know.

Demo

Account Quick-Switcher

Swipe up anywhere on the tab bar or long press on the profile tab to quickly hop between your accounts. For those of you who use accessibility font sizes and rely on the tab bar info HUD, don't worry--we've made sure the long press gesture opens the HUD instead, and you can still access the quick-switcher with the swipe up.

Demo

Profile Nicknames

Do you have twelve profiles on eight instances using three names? Do you have so many accounts that you no longer know who or where you are? No longer! You can now add nicknames to your accounts and display them in the tab bar--or display the instance, or the username, or the enigmatic 'Profile.'

Demo

Compact Comments

Customizable Post and Comment Info

Only see what you care about. Just about every piece of meta-information about a post or a comment can be toggled on and off to suit your whims.

Quality of Life Improvements

• Implemented aggressive background prefetching, caching, and processing to smooth out the feed scrolling
• Image previews can be swiped down to dismiss
• Read posts are now indicated by grayed out title text. For users who use "differentiate without color," we've added two different options to indicate read posts: a gray bar on the leading edge or a checkmark by the ellipsis menu. You can configure them in the new "Accessibility" settings menu.
• Read posts can now be hidden using a new button in the navigation bar ellipsis menu
• Added an unread count on the inbox tab (it can be disabled)
• Organized and beautified settings
• Refined haptics across the app
• Added .webp image support
• Improved animations
• Fixed comments not collapsing interaction bar

Whenever I edit a post/comment and move the cursor before typing anything, the cursor jumps to the end after typing the first character: GitHub issue.

I may have found a solution, but I haven't yet heard about anyone else having this issue.

Does this happen to anyone else?

Hello, the only feature I miss coming from Memmy is being able to download the images and videos like Apollo did (RIP). Don’t forget to donate folks !

I find the translucent tab/navigation bar to be distracting and much prefer a solid color. I was wondering if I’m the only one, I also opened a PR for this, hopefully that makes it through :)

It’s just an optional appearance setting btw, so it’s not taking away the translucent version.

Update: it’s been merged and will hopefully come with the next update (under Settings → accessibility → Translucent Insets)

I’m in Indonesia at the moment and my internet connections are poor. So having an app that weighs just 20MB is fantastic!

That’s all I really wanted to say. Congrats to the devs on the progress so far!

For some reason, Mlem won’t let me comment and gives me an error each time I try.

I am signed on with my Lemmy.world username without issue and am posting this post from that account using Mlem, but I cannot comment for some reason while I have no problems commenting from other apps.

Is anyone else having this issue? Is there any other info I can provide to help track this issue?

I’m constantly running into multiple groups that address the same subject. It would be nice if I could combine those so I saw all the posts in one place. For example, all the forums that are discussing UAPs it would be cool to just look at a single thing that combined them all. 

Thank you so much for Mlem! This app is soothing my Apollo withdrawals, along with Lemmy in general.

Wondering if an option to show the submitting user (submitter) in the Compact View Post listing might be considered?

Perhaps along with an option to remove community instance name if needed to save space for showing the submitter above?

Thanks to all your feedback on the first 1.0.1 Release Candidate build, we've smoothed out some of the edges and are targeting an App Store submission tomorrow.

The Highlights:

• Added swipe down to dismiss QuickLook preview
• Added the ability to give profiles nicknames to display in the tab bar (settings -> appearance -> tab bar)

Full Changelog:

• Added swipe down to dismiss QuickLook preview
• Added the ability to give profiles nicknames
• Fixed "show instance" toggles not doing anything
• Fixed voiceover on the tab bar. It now properly announces each tab and is considered the last item in the view, so the reader starts in the right place and will select the tab bar on four-finger tap at the bottom of the screen
• Improved voiceover on posts. The items in the info stack are now properly grouped and annotated.
• De-emphasized the body of text posts in feed. Text post bodies now appear as secondary content (gray) in the feed instead of primary (black or white)
• Added haptic feedback on long press account quick switcher
• Fixed tab bar spacing on devices with a physical home button
• Tightened up tab bar animations significantly
• Added auto-selection of text fields in post and comment editors
• Improved consistency of settings menus
• Fixed an issue where all users in community feeds were being flaired as OP
• Improved comment folding animation
• Changed some stale links
• Added .webp image support
• Even more caching to further improve feed performance

Hello, I would really appreciate being able to disable swipe gestures (for example to upvote/downvote or save). In Apollo iirc there was a settings switch for each swipe gesture, and disabling all of them enabled lateral swipes for navigation, from anywhere on the screen instead of just from the edge. Thanks

I've been getting this error since public release. I've tried reinstalling the app a few times, but it persists.

Tried attaching a screenshot, but I get the error: SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

So here is an imgur instead

Apologies if this was posted before.

I’ll share screenshots if I can figure out how haha

We've been hard at work tuning our image caching, prefetching, and optimizations, and are excited to finally bring you a smooth and highly performant feed with none of the stuttering or jumping that's been plaguing us.

This build also brings a few new smaller improvements:

• Read posts are now indicated in the feed and can be hidden using the "hide read" button in the navigation bar ellipsis menu. By default read posts are indicated with grayed title text, but if the system-wide "differentiate without color" setting is enabled we've added two different ways to indicate read posts: a checkmark by the ellipsis menu on read posts or a gray bar on the leading edge on unread posts.
• New accessibility menu in settings. Right now it's just got the settings to customize differentiation without color, but long-term it's going to serve as a place to house all the customizations needed to make Mlem work smoothly and easily for everybody.
• Updated thumbnail behavior. Tapping an image post's thumbnail opens the image quicklook and tapping a link post's thumbnail opens the link. Both of these actions mark a post as read.
• Greatly improved the robustness of our haptics system, which previously would sometimes just stop working if the app was closed.

This build's our 1.0.1 App Store Release Candidate, so if testing goes well it'll be hitting the App Store in the next couple days.

Cheers,

The Mlem Group

After clicking a post to read more or read comments, I would like to be able to go back to the feed by clicking the feed button. Instead of having to tap the back button at the top left of the screen.

It would be nice if you could implement gesture controls to close the quicklook menu when viewing pictures. I would like to swipe back / swipe the picture up or down to close it without me having to tap the 'done' button in the upper right corner every time.

• Consider allowing the user to sloppy swipe away from QuickLook, rather than reaching for the button in the top-right.
• For posts with links to somewhere other than the image, consider following through to the link (e.g. news article) rather than loading the image.
• When the user has clicked into the post/comments page, consider enabling QuickLook from tapping the image in the post.

Thanks for continuing to work on such a solid Lemmy client! You guys rock 💙

First off, great update! Love the image viewer, looking for the gif viewer! Now the request:

Can we have a setting to avoid opening links in a window inside the app and open them in the default browser, please?
