Hi, Connect 1.0.59 brings a new profile page, improvements to how routes are handled within the app, and a host of new settings. I hope you like it!

I’m still thinking about what a ‘new to Lemmy’ onboarding might look like. Also I know some people reported issues with the markdown editor yesterday, if this version still have issues please add a comment and I’ll try and sort them out today!

What’s new

  • Community name and user name are now direct links, with a setting to disable it.

  • Added a quick link to the official community within the app

  • Added confirmation on exit app

  • Added swiping on the left edge of home will open the drawer.

  • The drawer navigation actions should be more responsive now

  • Added an option to adjust how nested comments look. Also I added a couple presets within Settings to change it. I hope you like the presets I’ve chosen.

  • Added some improvements to the profile page. Tabs for overall/posts/comments and a page header

  • Added some haptic feedback for swipe actions

Bugfixes

  • Fixed comment cards in the reply view are no longer clickable
  • Fixed a three dot menu being invisible (web)
  • Fixed some routing issues when creating a comment or editting a comment. Instead of the previous state being in history it should now show only the state after the change.

Also please let me know what you think of the colour palettes I’ve chosen for the comment lines. If you’re thinking of one that would be cool I’m happy to add it in :)

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.

Could we add functionality to collapse all child comments? Also a way to set that as the default option?

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 :)

Glad you’re enjoying it! I’ve fixed the search back issue you saw.
