About 10 days ago I wrote a comment on a post about an update to Memmy. I asked for an orange icon, which was added a day or two later.

I also asked for a way to jump to the next parent comment on a post, whether that be a small button on the bottom like Apollo or a swipe, just a way to get out of a comment chain and move to the next parent comment without having to just scroll and look. I got a reply saying that you were going to start working on it, and I thought it would be out by now, but I haven't seen anything about it.

Is that still coming?

I already have it on max, but my eyes are bad so I have to strain my eyes to be able to see the letters/bring my phone really close. Is there any way you can make the slider bigger so that the font can be larger? Thank you.

Are there any plans to add widget support? Part of what I loved about Apollo were it's awesome widgets. Thanks

Whoa there, buddy! What is this — some sort of Loco App™️? If Apple finds out, there goes that Design Award.

is it possible to change the app language ? in german, the word for settings is to long and breaks into 2 lines which looks awful...

Hey all!

This should be available sometime later in the day. Huge thanks for a few new contributors - @joshua-davis-rose and @bohn002 - for putting in a lot of work as well.

• Subscriptions now available in a drawer instead of "Traverse". More of an Apollo-esque style
• Switch accounts by pressing and holding the profile button. Feed header now allows you to select Local/All/Subscriptions
• Continuing to improve image viewer
• Saving images and sharing images now uses the cached files to share, so you don't need to re-download them
• Alphabetized subscription list
• Community about screen now shows moderators
• You can swipe back using anywhere in the tab bar (I've been experimenting with full-screen swipe back as well, once I get that ironed out a bit more we will add that too)
• UI now uses the iOS 14+ dropdowns for context menus
• Cleaned up some issues with longer community names, but there are still more to handle. Keep an eye out.
• Subscriber count is now in the community search
• All NSFW image issues should be fixed
• Lots of performance enhancements around the app
• Also lots of bug fixes, especially for a few newly discovered crashes

Please be sure to report any issues to the GitHub if you can. It is much easier to track there than it is here. There's a lot of traffic, so it's hard to keep track of all of it!

Stay tuned for more coming throughout the week!

When switching between All/Local/Subscribed — consider marking the current selection in bold in the menu, rather than adding the word “(Current)”. This would shorten the menu text and might make it simpler to localize.

I really liked the ability in Apollo to filter keywords. I had set it to filter everything Elon Musk out, eg Elon, Spacex, Tesla, Musk, etc

Is there such a feature planned? Anyone else liked/used that feature in Apollo/other apps?

Also: great work on Memmy, you should definitely think about a paid version asap. I would definitely buy a one time purchase or even a monthly/yearly subscription, if there is a roadmap.

So yeah, I’m using Memmy as my desktop Lemmy client.

I does work OKish. I just wish there was a refresh button.

Any ideas why sometimes tapping the upvote or downvote arrow on iOS shows the tap animation, but doesn’t then turn the arrow button to orange? Anyone else seeing this? A second tap registers correctly.

Wondering if it’s the app not getting a reply from the server, or a bug in iOS, or a bug in the app.

When I try to comment I get an error “Cannot post in this language on this server”.

What does this icon do? It appears on scroll sometimes. Tapping it does nothing.

Edit: Want to make this a sugestion thread, so please let us know your ideas on themes or names below.

Howdy all!

We have been internally discussing a rebranding of Memmy to another name. This has been a discussion for some time, and although we have certainly tried to see the upsides of not rebranding, we don't think this is a viable long-term option, for - among others - the following reasons:

• Eventual support for non-Lemmy services such as Kbin or Mastodon
• User awareness of Lemmy. Right now, the vast majority of people who are finding the app most likely are specifically searching for "Lemmy". While that's great and (based on trends on downloads/day) shows that there's obviously a big demand for Lemmy, we think this might not be the best way to grow - not just for ourselves but for Lemmy as a whole. We want the fediverse to grow and the best way to do that is to make it acceptable and easy to access without specifically targeting people who already know about Lemmy
• Community feedback in general about the name. None of this is taken personal or anything, but there's definitely negative feedback for multiple reasons about it, and honestly I think we agree with most - if not all - of that feedback.

Like I said, this is not something that we are doing lightly and we want to make sure we make the right choice before moving forward.

Mind you, we are not talking about a short-term goal here of supporting multiple Fediverse platforms. That probably isn't even in the one-year plan if I'm being honest. But I personally believe the way that we make the Fediverse work is by making the whole experience awesome, and that means offering users with options and ease-of-use.

So, with that said, we want to see what you guys think. We have had internal discussion about the possibility of using the name Badger, and while we all think that's a pretty good option, we are not 100% sold and want to gauge feedback before we do anything. Edit: It seems like that might not be something the community is interested in, so we likely won't be going that route.

Please drop your suggestions for themes or names below! We will go through them all sometime later in the day.

Let us know your thoughts!

Can you implement a language selector? I don‘t like the german translation as it contains reddit circlejerk terms like „Pfostieren“ instead of „Posten“. I‘d rather use the english version.

Coming to the App Store tomorrow!

Hey all! We still have some more QOL updates coming tomorrow or Saturday. Working on getting comments all sorted up (more like the Apollo style) and getting post editing/deletion as well as mod tools underway.

This update provides a VAST improvement to the image viewer. There shouldn't be any more issues with the swiping to close.

There are some issues still but they are minor and I'll get them cleaned up here soon. I've spent the day writing this viewer from scratch, so it's been a process.

The "white flash of death" should be fixed here as well when you open up the app.

We also now support localization! German is officially supported now, and we will be sourcing other languages to improve the experience for everyone.

Other minor fixes as well in this build, including a fix for a crash that was happening with the new spoilers.

Stay tuned, and happy scrolling!

I'm trying to know what is the URL Scheme of the app to limit its usage limit using OneSec (I'm kind of addicted to lemmy 😓) can you help me? I already tried with memmy://

I recall it had the mouse on it. Now I have the purple world.

First I just want to say how wild it is how this app came together so quickly and so solidly. Only bugs I’ve run into have been with the instance and not the app! Kudos to the devs!!!

I do have one feature request - please remember the last sort used when switching views. For example: In Subscribed view, I like to sort by new. For All view, I like to sort by hot. It would be nice if I could switch between the two without having to then re-sort. Not a big deal, just a convenience. Thanks for your time!

So I’ve noticed that, in most cases, if you sort by “Top: Last 6 hours,” a lot of posts (obviously) won’t show up. This is mainly true for threads that don’t have many comments, updoots, or both.

Could we maybe have an option to select “All”? Some of the smaller posts may be completely overlooked.

If I’m missing the option and it’s already available, feel free to nuke this post from orbit.

I’m using Dracula purple theme and the top buttons colors are inconsistent throughout the app. Found issues in the Accounts settings, also new post top buttons are the wrong color.

Lemmy.world was experiencing authentication issues yesterday, making it difficult to comment and vote.

These issues were resolved some hours ago when lemmy.world updated to 18.02, but you may still be experiencing issues with your account on third party apps such as memmy.

If so, everything will start working normally if you remove your account from the app and add it again! Possibly just reinstalling will also achieve the same thing, but I haven’t tested that personally.

I can't see my posts in my moderated community. I do not want to advertise it so I won't link in directly here. The community is called Apple Gaming and I have 3 posts there, which I can't see (see screenshot)

I miss the share feature from Apollo. It worked like this:

1. long press on post
2. share sheet of iOS appears
3. share the post wherever you want as a pic including community name and other stats (see screenshot)

What I also loved is that Apollo didn't save it in the photos app.

There's was also the feature to add comments in the shared pic. Maybe that could be added too? If you add a watermark it would also be a great ad for memmy.
