When I make a new post in the app, the icon to click to post the post is a plus sign. Can that get switched to the paper airplane icon you see in most other social media apps for posting something? I think that’s kind of become the standard…

      The paper airplane is for the act of sending, which happens after composing a post, comment or message. As you stated, a plus or pencil both work for composing.

          Yeah, a paper airplane means “post” or “publish” and it can apply to posts as it does to comments. I would not be against it but there are more pressing issues such as the Markdown renderer’s lack of support for
          subscript and superscript,

          formatted
          tables

          !etc.!<

      RIF has a right facing split triangle / paper airplane. It looks very similar to the post comment button on Jerboa.

      To be clear, I don’t mean the plus sign box that denotes “create a new post.”

      When you click that, it opens a new view where you create the post. In that view, when you want to finish and close, you click another plus sign. That’s the one I’m talking about.

    I have been using sync and boost for more than 10 years, both apps have now the plus icon.

    It’s a standard, just like dynamic theme imo(android 12+), I’m not an android dev but i would keep it as it is.

    I thought the + would be to attach something. I guess I’ll get used to it, but it was a bit confusing for me. I don’t social media much anymore, though, so I’m not going to feign wisdom about this.
