The best just got even better, thanks for everything!

Minor gripes:

• the gesture "remembers" the farthest you go no matter when you actually leave your thumb. (ie if i want to upvote a post and I go a bit too far to the right on the bookmark gesture, and go back to the upvote icon without releasing the gesture, it bookmarks the post instead of upvoting it)

• it would be nice if the downvote action was included in these gestures, for all the beans posts ;).

• I still have the same issue on my tablet (also reported by @OneDimensionPrinter@lemm.ee) about not all subs showing up on the left tab. Everything is fine on my phone.

I'm really liking the great leaps in improvements and bugfixes!

Love the fact you're listening to the community and how fast the updates are. Massive kudos, keep it up!

I really like this update. Thanks for making the transition over to Lemmy such a positive experience.

You're killing it!

No joke, connect has become amazing in a very short span of time.

You've actually got more features available than jerboa, and the layout is so nice!

One bug though, did a search and the back arrow at the upper left doesn't work, nor does the back button on the navbar. No issues with scrolling so far on this version.

Thanks for busting ass on this :)

This was a huge release! Thanks!

One question, it appears that the ability to collapse comment threads with a tap is gone. Is that true? Or did it move?

Another bug I noticed. Tapping Yes here doesn't actually exit the app.

Would it be possible to have the community icons next to their names on the frontpage?

Thank you! I like this app very much!

The new version no longer crashes on launch on my Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, so whatever you did fixed that. The scrolling speed is too slow with a mouse wheel in Samsung DeX though. App looks great otherwise and I'm looking forward to playing with it some more.

thanks for the active work, you do an awesome job!

Nice!

Frantically hitting the Check for Updates button in the Play Store.

(Dang Google, with their staged rollouts on everything...)

Thanks for this great app! It's replaced the hole RIF left in my soul.

Thanks again for all you're hard work.

Feature request please: Gesture swipe up or down on an image to dismiss it and return to post. Same for gifs/videos if you implement a built-in player at the some point.

Feature request 2: some border padding on images in community view. I enabled show 'Post titles Above Images' but without a border the title and post text look disconnected

Connect is feeling very good to use! Excellent work with this update, it's becoming my main Lemmy app. I love all of the new features and customization options.

I'm personally a big fan of the "Earthy" color pallete for comment lines.

Thanks for your hard work!

Excellent update as always!

A couple of bugs I've noticed.

• The new fixed thumbnail height toggle doesn't actually seem to work for fullwidth despite it saying so
• The area for me to tap to see the comments menu or hold to hide and unhide the comments seems to be only on areas where there is text and not the whole section. This makes it hard to interact with comments that are very short on text.
• There don't seem to be clear card like dividers in card view mode between posts when using the AMOLED dark mode

Such quick updates. Thanks for adding confirmation on app exit.

Connect is awesome! 🔥

Feature request: Top 12/6/1 hours :)

Thanks for the app. Can you add a feature to jo just skip to the next parent comment? I loved this feature on RIF

New icon is really ugly... Default launcher on Samsung phone.

Otherwise a really great app!

Enjoying so far. Thanks

I love how small the updates are - 1.5mb! And the whole app is just 26mb. Kudos!

This is absolutely beautiful. Love the work done in the profile area. Top Lemmy app hands down.

Great work, thank you so much!

Any chance you could support custom tabs? Using the open for anything that currently doesn't work leaves me in webview, which neither has my logins nor tge features I need from my browser.

Hey there! I really appreciate the constant improvements the updates bring. Connect is the app I mainly use for lemmy now.

I'd like to request a feature. Could you add an option for title to be above media(image and videos) posts? It's what I was used to on the various third party reddit apps I used to use.

Thanks again.

Just tried the apps available for Android, and Connect is clearly the friendliest and prettiest client. I know it's early days, but I think I'll be experiencing lemmy from here, at least until Sync comes out.

Request: I'm on team serif for comment font. Can we have font choices?

Hi Kuro, thanks for all your awesome work and the crazy rapid development. It's really paying off with how great the app is progressing!

Would you consider adding and option for an alternative cardview, similar to Relay, that has the author, community, post age and title in the header of the card followed by the image or content then in the footer it has the comment count, vote buttons and more options etc.

That order of information is conditioned into me after many years of Relay use 😂

For reference:

Thanks for the quick update!

One thing I really liked about RIF's comment view is that it had an explicit show/hide button for collapsing/expanding comment threads. The long press to collapse is okay but a bit annoying to use when you're trying to collapse lots of comments with a long nested thread with many branches. Any chance we could get a setting for an explicit button with this functionality?

request: a smooth transition for moving the lower comment when revealing the comment bar just like in sync

Aaah great update, love the new settings.

What makes me wonder, why is the function going to the community inside dot menu of the top comment and not in the top menu bar?

Should it be respecting my preference to start on the subscribed communities feed? Currently it always defaults to all.

Thanks for the great app.

A feature I would like is an option to open in external browser rather than only webview. If I want to share a link on at the moment it's quite difficult

I like it so far but I can't figure out how to collapse comment chains. Otherwise much better than gerboa for me.

Those are some nice changes!

The previous history being shown after editing a comment was particularly annoying. Glad you fixed that.

Oh and since it seems like you're working on the user experience side of things, I made a post here with some suggestions for you to consider regarding the app!

Deleted comments still appear, just with a "deleted" indicator next to them. I'm not sure if this is intentional or not, but if it is, then maybe there could at least be an option to not display the deleted comments?

Feature request, can we have a option to swipe post (horizontal scroll) instead of vertical scrolling only.

Hello, I just heard about this app and tried it out. It's instantly become my favorite as being most similar to RIF of the ones I've tried. I figured posting feedback and bugs to the current release thread will keep things the most organized.

[Bug] Post titles do not display for me (Galaxy Fold 4) in open/closed mode. I've tried toggling through the various themes and post view styles with no luck.

[Request] When clicking on a comment, it expands to display ways to interact with it. If you click on another comment, the options for the previous comment remain visible. The "ActiveComment" should be the only one with visible options to conserve screen space.

Finally got the update. Some great improvements in there! Had to reconfigure my settings, but that only took about 30 seconds.

The swipe to open side menu does seem a bit glitchy, however.

It seems to open the side menu at the same time you swipe back to your home screen. Unfortunately, I just have to immediately clear it away to see my home screen.

Once you're actually on your home screen (which is where you'd expect it to work), swiping doesn't do anything.

Of note, I'm talking about the swipe action to the right from essentially anywhere on the screen. If there's a separate action I'm missing from the extreme left edge, that being overridden by Android's own built-in back gesture.

EDIT: Oops. My bad. The Android extreme edge swipe does open the menu from the home view. I'd just not been using it in favor of the swipe from anywhere.

Favorites are not sticking for me.

Edit: They're staying now but there seems to be some wonkiness.
