The Subscribed feed is showing up empty. Other settings regarding the feed work fine, but the Subscribed feed is broken. Also, replies showing up as double replies, one below the other, once you reply to a post.
And you could make the search menu a bit more⊠friendly. Currently you have to add instances in order to search for communities in them. Not practical at all, there are hundreds of instances, if I had to add each one in order to search in them, that will just take way too long. Why not have instance and communities auto-discoverable, like in Jerboa (type in search the community youâre lookimg for, results pop up).
About the search menu⊠unless Iâm mis understanding thatâs just how Lemmy works. You have to be subscribed or at least have search for a community outside of your instance before you can interact with it within your instance.
Actually, no. If at least one user from your instance has subscribed to a community of another instance, that other instanceâs communities show up in your search results (they are federated)⊠at least that is how it should work 100% of the time, but it doesnât. In most cases, it doesnât actually show all of the communities that would show up during a search, meaning the web UI would return a lot more results.
The method youâre using is actually a safe bet: specify the instaceâs URL and donât have to rely on whether that specific instance is federated with my instance, just search for communities there as well. That approach is easier if you actually have a link to the community which youâd like to add and the instance on which it resides. But, if you have no idea on what instance that community might reside, itâs easier to actually seach for it via the web UI, which I hoped would be implemented in an app sooner or later (having relevant results I mean).
Yeah Iâm wanting to implement that into liftoff. Thatâs the main feature Iâve been wanting in apps.
To clarify this app is a resurrection of an abandoned Lemmy app, when this app was active Lemmy was not as popular and we didnât have massive instances like Lemmy world. Working through this is a fun challenge but itâs also a user experience challenge. What instance are you having issues with?
