Hi everyone!

2025 is here, and I'm curious to hear your thoughts on Voyager for Lemmy.

  • What features would you like to see added to Voyager in 2025?
  • Are there any bugs or issues that are bothering you?

Please, PLEASE adjust the UI to prevent accidental touches. On far too many occasions I mis-tap and end up going to the community instead of the post. Or the User's profile instead of collapsing the comment. Drives me nuts! Those links are already in a separate menu; no need for the redundancy. Tapping anywhere on a post should only ever go to the post. Tapping anywhere on a comment should only ever collapse the comment.

Take a page out of Relay for Reddit, where you swipe to the left on a post or comment to bring up a submenu, and that's where your options to upvote/downvote, reply, view the community/user profile, etc. are. (i.e. Remove the 3 dots and put all those options in such a swipeable menu.) The current swipe gestures should be turned into a "slow swipe" gesture so that people still have the option to set their favorite shortcuts to them.

Please, I'm begging you to implement this.

Why does android not have filtering when iPhone does?

If I accidentally swipe open the communities when browsing my feed, I should be able to swipe out of it back to my feed. Another option would be to have an option to disable swipe to open communities picker.

Hey, i would like to be able tp see users pronoums and 'usernames' (i.e. their readable name, and not their tag). Great app!

Lately I've been getting more issues with images failing to load. Virtually every image from feddit.org had issue some days, but today I see random posts from mander.xyz and lemmy.world too. I tested it on another app and they load there. I can also open the lost in a browser to see the image.

Other than that the app is really nice, although I hate accidentally backspacing one time too many and restarting my scrolling from the very top of "all" πŸ˜„

Did you test another app with exact same instance and login?

Fast way to open post in normal webkit (in iOS App) view, as fallback if a post has somehow issues.

[–] aeharding@vger.social 2 points 6 months ago (3 children)

You mean, as linked in post or comments? One thing that might work is long press.

Features: Tablet layout on iPad, GIF scrobbling with swipe.

Bugs: Database error, UI missing requiring quit and restart.

Overall though, Voyager is amazing & indispensable. Great job :)

I wish there was an option to move the up and downvote arrows to the left side. So I can scroll and upvote with one hand as a left-handed person.

[–] aeharding@vger.social 2 points 6 months ago

Cool idea. You can do that with thumbnails, I don't see why not buttons

[–] We1chy@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Swipe anywhere to go back would be a nice added feature.

[–] aeharding@vger.social 2 points 6 months ago

That's on Github!

Hi!

Let me please add to the thanks and kudos for all your efforts developing a truly excellent app!

Two new features I didn’t see elsewhere (my apologies if they were already mentioned or are otherwise off base):

  1. ability to search the comments of a post you’re viewing (like β€œfind in page” on a web browser)
  2. ability to view the relevant portion of the mod log by clicking on a comment that has been moderated (e.g., deleted)

Thanks again!

[–] aeharding@vger.social 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

For 1, I did some feasibility work on this, shouldn't be that bad but there is a safari bug I have to work around. I could implement android only though for now.

Better mod tools are planned

[–] CriticalThought@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Amazing! Thank you so much for your consideration and reply!!

[–] pureness@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Two features I'd love to see are an option from the posts view for "Scroll to top", also while in a comments section the ability to "find/search" the various comments. Thanks so much :)
