Great start to what will likely be a great app. I have a couple easy to implement UI/UX suggestions.

1: The community drop down bar I believe should display the community you’re currently viewing instead of displaying hot/new/most comments etc as you already have an icon displaying that.

2: A toggle in the settings to enable swipe anywhere to go back when swipe gestures is disabled to help with Plus/Pro Max users that have average/small hands lol.

Other than those two minor complaints I’m loving the app, however!

    Added to this, how do you subscribe to a federated community from memmy? I would expect the search bar to be at the top or bottom of the community list?

      I’ll have a search bar in the header and a search page for more complex searches.

        To add to this, clicking the top drop-down menu now no longer has the option for subscribed/all etc, could you bring that back?

        Additionally, three other things I found myself missing from my Apollo addiction thus far:

        -when on a post, tapping it to collapse it and go straight to comments

        • long swiping left to collapse entire comment threads

        -Having the option to tap the arrow next to the commenters username as an alternative to swipe to vote.

        Would love to see these in a future release :)

          On the subscribed/all/local selection, that’s moved to the “…” on the top right

    Both great ideas. Added them to the list. Thanks!

      Great to see an iOS client for Lemmy. I also can’t upvote anything other then the main but not responses to it. What are the plans as far as App Store release? Or first months in TestFlight?

        I too have found that I cannot upvote comments; can only upvote (or downvote) posts.

          Hmm. This might be an issue with the server you’re connecting to. I’ve added a notification if the upvote doesn’t go through. Can you let me know if you get anything from that?

        Once I have something presentable I will go for a full release, even if it is still lacking features here and there. But for now just Test Flight.
