Hey all!

For all of the testers, we have submitted a 0.1 build to TestFlight that needs to get approved. These usually only take a few hours unlike a full store release which usually takes 12-24 hours, so expect that here soon.

First, let me detail what is already fixed in the current TestFlight version and will be in the next store release:

  • Sharing images inside of the image viewer will now download the image to be shared as an image, not as a link
  • Link helper respects the theme and uses the URL keyboard for the link
  • The post viewport should respect keyboard height and fill the remainder of the space
  • Read icon now uses the correct theme/accent color (thanks ktgd)
  • All /c/community links should now work (thanks ktgd)
  • The last account you used is now remembered (thanks jderose)
  • Search will automatically take you to the community or user if you include the @instance
  • All refresh controls will respect the theme (no longer invisible)
  • Added top hour, top six hours, and top twelve hours (I need to add them to defaults, I’ll do that here in a bit)
  • Fixed image save/share not being present in compact mode
  • Made sure that images that are both present in the URL and in the body of the post don’t show up twice
  • Profile reload issues (i.e. if it fails to load) should be fixed
  • Link info not displaying in posts is now fixed
  • Blur respects the current theme
  • Voting on a post in search now reflects that vote
  • Modifications to the profile screen. This will help with load times when all you’re doing is looking at someone’s profile
  • Performance improvements in the feed
  • Performance improvements in comments
  • Collapsing large comment chains no longer causes freeze/crash
  • Performance improvements in profile
  • Performance improvements in inbox

Here are the things being addressed that will be making their way into 0.1 TestFlight builds and should be available on the store either on Friday or Saturday:

  • New swipe animation. Much improved, more performant, and without the visual bugs we have right now
  • Error reporting. You’ll get actual error messages now instead of the generic error codes Lemmy sends
  • Markdown enhancements. Pictures in comments should be there, and more than one image in a post will be shown
  • Editing or deleting a post
  • Improvements to image viewer. I cannot PROMISE that swiping through images (like a gallery) will be there but I CAN promise that there shouldn’t be any further issues with swipe to dismiss or issues with swiping to close some images
  • Also, iPad users shouldn’t have issues with viewing images in landscape mode anymore
  • Other improvements (I’ll list them as we add them)
  • Other bug fixes (Same thing, I will list them as I add them)

Things to note:

I’ve seen some issues with subscriptions not showing up in the Traverse screen. I think this is a server issue, but I will verify that to be sure. I am experiencing this on Lemmy.ml and I think others are experiencing it on Lemm.ee. I wonder if a recent update (lemmy.ml seems to have updated) caused this. I also noticed that my upvote count on the profile has changed, not sure what that might be because of…

For issues, I strongly suggest reporting them on GitHub: https://github.com/memmy-app/memmy

While Sean and I do try to go through posts here, it’s MUCH more difficult than it is on GitHub. We have an internal issue tracker that syncs with GitHub that we use to triage and develop roadmaps. It’s hard to do that with posts here.

Thanks for all of the INCREDIBLE support over the past day from you guys!

    Great app, thank you!

    Sorry if I missed it but I’d love to have ability to move the upvote swipe gesture to a left swipe. I’m constantly upvoting comments on accident when I’m just trying to leave the post.

    Thanks for the great work! Any way we can have the content be center justified, like Apollo/wefwef? It’s odd seeing photos/memes centered, as they should and seeing text at the very left edge, especially on landscape iPad

      What do you mean by this? I’m just a user, but I am not sure I’m following your request.

        We need margins… I realized I wasn’t identifying the issue accurately. We need space on the left and right between screen edge, keeping images and text vertically uniform, and flowing, while scrolling. It’s more jarring the bigger the device.

      Such a minor thing, but it drives me bonkers. Also hate when my Kindle left-justifies text even though I have it set to use the entire line width. (It overrides my font settings sometimes, too, which I hate. I selected my thirdparty font for a reason – much easier on my eyes).

      Unfortunately it is out of my hands. Apple only allows for 10k. Once some people start migrating away from using TestFlight, I will clear out users who have not actively used a TF build in 15 days or so.

    Great update as usual. Thank you.

    I noticed that when sharing an image from the full screen image view it just says “downloading” but nothing happens after that. I waited a few minutes too.

    Edit: it only happens when viewing images from the feed without opening the post first.

        Thanks. Just had the same thing happen when using the save button (from the image viewer from the feed)

    For some reason TestFlight is still at 0.0.2. Guess apple is taking their sweet time for some reason.

      Should have one version now. Since it got approved I’ll push a new version here in about an hour.

    Hi Gavin. Super impressed by your work on Memmy. I was an avid ApolloApp user myself, as you and many many others. And being frank, Memmy makes the transition from reddit to lemmy so much easier and enjoyable. Forgot reddit’s existence almost.

    I’m shocked at how quickly I requested hiding posts on Guthub and then it gets implemented. Thanks for making this amazing app. Lemmy has now completely replaced other social media sites for me. Truly Apollo-quality work here.

    Are there any plans for more app icon options? I’d prefer something a little less…loud…than the current icon.
