    Sync user here and would also love a swipe to close post and return to list at same scroll position. Would be a nice QOL feature.

    Other misc. thing I’m hoping gets added is a setting to toggle the click to collapse comment interaction. I like to hold comment to collapse a thread and it’s too easy for me to misclick and collapse chains I’m trying to read at the moment, since single touch collapses it.



  • I think this is the part I see as a potential hurdle for hosting a primarily auth-purposed instance. Fetching remotely would be too slow but data replication would exponentially increase storage over time. So anyone planning to self-host would need to take on the storage growth costs of all other federated instances raising the barrier for entry over time. Unless I’ve misunderstood this point

    A long, long time ago
    I can still remember how upvotes used to make me smile
    And I knew if I just got rollin'
    That I could help keep users scrollin'
    And maybe there'd be content for a while
    
    But July 1st makes me shiver
    With far less content to deliver
    Bad news on the frontpage
    I can no longer engage
    
    I can't remember if I erupted
    When I read apps would be disrupted
    But disappointment interrupted
    The day that Reddit died
    
    So bye, bye, old Reddit API
    Stuck with Huffman through some updates but the updates were shite
    And them good ole boys were snortin' gonewild 'n smite
    Postin' this'll be the day that it dies
    This'll be the day Reddit dies
    
    Did you read the TOS?
    And do you have faith in mods success
    If users still engage with subs?
    Now do you believe in open access?
    Can ads save your failing assets?
    And could you be less avarice heedless schlubs?
    
    Well, I know that you're in need of clicks
    'Cause I see you suckin' Newhouse dicks
    You both killed third party apps
    Man, I thought that you might give a crap
    
    I was a lonely teenage software dev
    With a git repository and a shit to give
    But I knew those apps wouldn't live
    The day that Reddit died
    
    I started singing bye, bye, old Reddit API
    Stuck with Huffman through some updates but the updates were shite
    And them good ole boys were snortin' gonewild 'n smite
    Postin' this'll be the day that it dies
    This'll be the day Reddit dies
    
    Now for ten years we'd moved on from Digg
    And greed grows fast for a ventured pig
    But that's not how it used to be
    When the users came for the cats and memes
    From apps made by the community
    And content that came from you and me
    
    Oh, and while those cats were growing old
    The number crunchers grew too bold 
    The communities dismissed
    Now everyone is pissed
    
    And while Lemmy federates with Marx
    The concept knocks it from the park
    It's time to migrate to an ark
    The day that Reddit died
    
    So bye, bye, old Reddit API
    Stuck with Huffman through some updates but the updates were shite
    And them good ole boys were snortin' gonewild 'n smite
