Hey everyone.]

So update 98/99 has gone live which fixes the crashes (thanks for the reports).

I’m gearing up for a pretty sizable release but just wanted to check in and ask if there was any issues you’re having that I should know about or any new feature requests.

Sorry for the bad comms but I’m making my way through lots of messages and posts on here. Thanks for the patience as I get through these all.

Cheers, Lj

    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 💛

        I’m not sure where to find which one I’m using. I use dark mode and the colors I’m having trouble with if the font is too thin or small are the orange and light blue. Changing the font weight or adding another style would also mean this is visible in night mode on Android (which removes all colors)

        Edit : I investigated the viewtypes and they all have the same issue of using the same font size and weight, just using the orange/blue color for the number of upvotes and the selected arrow.

        Edit 2 : increasing brightness helps a lot with the colors, but I’m mostly using Sync at night on minimum brightness.

        The best way for you to visualize the issue would be to activate black and white night mode on Android :)

            Not sure how I would use that. Do you mean 2 custom colors to change both the default orange and blue? I can perfectly distinguish them when they’re on a bolder shape (🟠🔵), it’s just a lot harder (or sometimes impossible) on a thin line/symbol.

            Again, the most efficient way to handle it would be to have a different style for the selected arrow (bolder, bigger, underlined or circled for example), on top of its color. It would then work as well in bedtime mode (b/w and low brightness) for everyone, not just for color blind people :)

            I think bedtime mode activates by default on newer Android devices after 10pm when the phone is charging. That’s how mine (OnePlus) was set up.

            I see my initial reply was upvoted about 30 times. Statistically speaking, I don’t think these would be only from color blind people

    A new spammer today made me think of another feature request: automatically refresh the currently viewed comment section after blocking a user to instantly remove the blocked comments.

    Hello from a long time Sync Pro user. Love your app and how much support and time you put into it.

    I don’t have any issues with Sync for Lemmy specifically.

    Although, I’d love to see sync pro available outside of the Play Store, even if directly from your website.

    I’d really like to completely decouple my phone from Google and there is a very small handful of apps that I still have to get from Google Play.

    However for the paid apps, I can’t reasonably use Aurora Store because I’d need to link my Google Account for a license.

    I know those would be extra work for you, so if you do decide to work on it l, know that I totally wouldn’t mind buying another lifetime license for a de-googled purchase validation.

    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”

    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

    I’m having an issue where the toggle for post-title -with-share when sharing an image does nothing - but I don’t see anyone else with the issue, so maybe it’s just me?

    Feature request: Saved post/comment categories similar to Reddit Gold. I’d love to long press the saved icon to supply a category. Then list all of the items of that category on the saved items page.

    I understand that Lemmy currently does not support this.

    Is there a way to configure the hide/show read posts more granularly? I’d like to have it off when viewing a specific community and on for the broader feeds

    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.

    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
