my feedback after using Lemmy for 2 weeks on SMARTPHONE :
- Annoying menu when you write ‘:’ on a post.
- a top bar with buttons ’ Home’ , ‘search’ ‘New post’ , ‘Inbox’, Menu(profile, new community, about…) will be better than just ‘Lemmy …Menu’
- Text too small when we write a post. should be the same than the text size you use to display a post
- Under a post : just few buttons as ‘reply’, ‘Edit’ and button ‘…’ (advanced menu for ‘report’, view user profile…)
- Replace ‘preview’ with just ‘post’ . Preview is useless Thank you
I agree with this. And if you press enter (as in “the thing I’m talking about is ass follows:” whee the thing is on the next line) it auto-inserts the first emoji. I feel like the emoji picker should be a clickable button instead.
Preview is for making sure your markdown is correctly formatted. I like it for writing complicated posts with a lot of formatting.
I didn’t know you can use markdown. Whether markdown is useless in Lemmy could be another post.
Markdown is perfect for short writing (posts/comments). It has easy to learn syntax, all the while enabling you to do somewhat complicated formatting, and it’s human-readable, unlike something like LateX.
It’s 100% not useless. You can do a lot of complex formatting with it, which is desirable for a forum where formal discussion is expected.
