I’m one of the Mlem devs. We don’t have it yet, but it’s on our roadmap–its planned to be implemented within the next couple of weeks.
Dev lead for Mlem, the iOS Lemmy client
I’m one of the Mlem devs. We don’t have it yet, but it’s on our roadmap–its planned to be implemented within the next couple of weeks.
You bet! You can check out our GitHub milestones for a high-level roadmap and our Project Board for the current state of development
We’re working on a shiny image viewer–it’s been slow because it’s tightly bound to our image handling, which we’ve been tinkering with a lot to make the feed nice and smooth. It’s slated for the next major update, though, so stay tuned!
We’re working on it–it’s been a bit slow because saving pictures and a detail image viewer is very closely tied to how we handle images, which we’ve been playing around with a lot to get the feed to scroll more smoothly. Picture saving and detail viewing should be out in the next major build.
Down the road we’re looking at integration with standard video hosting sites to let them play inline nicely. The primary challenge isn’t technical but financial: most of those APIs cost money, and the project doesn’t have any. We have to have some discussions about how we want to offer features like that (and push notifications, which also cost money to run) without compromising our ideal of being a donation-driven project—we need to avoid suddenly ending up in the hole for money that we don’t have. Once we’ve decided on an approach, though, we’ll definitely be set up to provide a seamless dog video browsing experience :)
To both: it’s in the works. We’re constantly optimizing our image preloading, which is the primary driver of the smoothness of the feed–we’ve got a really nice implementation that’s way smoother coming down the pipeline soon.
As to the thumbnails, we’ve been getting a ton of feedback asking for various customizations like that, so we’re bumping all the “easy win” customizability up–the next update we put out should have the option to swap thumbnail side, plus some other high-demand toggles
We’re working on it! It’s issue 244 in our dev tracker.
Thanks for the feedback!
We’re still finalizing the post and comment layouts–the time alone in the middle was a funky choice that we’re definitely not sticking with. Buttons are going to stay primary because the user can interact with them, but we’re working on more customization options so you can only see the information you want.
We try to avoid disabling native behavior, but we do have a feature in the works to return to scroll position, so keep an eye out–probably coming in 1.1 or 1.2, we haven’t nailed down the scoping of it yet
Our founder was working on it for about a year before Lemmy took off and the rest of the team joined. Judging by his git history he didn’t work on it super frequently, so maybe ~2 months? It’s been about a month since then, so with 6ish devs on the team that’s another 6 dev-months for a total of 8 dev-months
Not unless somebody wants to remake it. It’s built using SwiftUI from the ground up, which isn’t really portable. It is open source, though, so anybody is welcome to port it themselves :P
So sorry about that, I thought you could reinstall without losing beta access–my bad! We’ll be on the store soon, though (hopefully, if Apple is quick to review), so
We’ve got a big customization update planned, we’ll be sure to get that option in there!
Hmm, that’s peculiar. Have you tried reinstalling the app? We recently changed how profile information gets stored, so it might be trying to read files that are written in an old format.
How’s it broken? Does it not launch at all, or does it launch behave weirdly/poorly?
We’re working on it! We’ve got a rough implementation, but it’s rough–we’re hoping to get it polished up and down the pipeline soon
We have a rough build of the feature, but it’s nowhere near production ready. Hopefully we can get it out in a minor patch before we go to the App Store, but it might have to wait until 1.1.
We’re working on it!
Yes! You can find it in Settings -> Content Filtering. We’ve got plans for more robust filtering in the works as well.
