Can we get fully collapsed comment threads back as an option? Also when a comment is collapsed, there should be some indication that there are child comments hidden

For those on Android, theres a few things I would like to get your feedback on (I don’t have a physical Android device so I cant see it for myself):

  • How does the icon look like to you? Has it improved from last time?
  • How is Material You? Does it work as expected?
  • Did the name of the app change to Thunder instead of thunder (capital case vs lower case)?

Icon looks great, Thunder is capitalized! Material You is working beautifully, though I might consider having it theme the floating New Post button as well?

AMAZING release, dude!

The app feels amazing! One thing that I personally want is the possibility to share images, gif or videos as they are, not only as a link to the post…

Other than that, I’m switching from connect!

It is one of the best designed lemmy app so far but my biggest issue with the app is that after scrolling a certain amount app becomes so laggy to the point it becomes unusable. Hope the issue is fixed soon.

I’m an Android user so let me know if more info is required.
