For all of the testers, we have submitted a 0.1 build to TestFlight that needs to get approved. These usually only take a few hours unlike a full store release which usually takes 12-24 hours, so expect that here soon.
First, let me detail what is already fixed in the current TestFlight version and will be in the next store release:
Sharing images inside of the image viewer will now download the image to be shared as an image, not as a link
Link helper respects the theme and uses the URL keyboard for the link
The post viewport should respect keyboard height and fill the remainder of the space
Read icon now uses the correct theme/accent color (thanks ktgd)
All /c/community links should now work (thanks ktgd)
The last account you used is now remembered (thanks jderose)
Search will automatically take you to the community or user if you include the @instance
All refresh controls will respect the theme (no longer invisible)
Added top hour, top six hours, and top twelve hours (I need to add them to defaults, I’ll do that here in a bit)
Fixed image save/share not being present in compact mode
Made sure that images that are both present in the URL and in the body of the post don’t show up twice
Profile reload issues (i.e. if it fails to load) should be fixed
Link info not displaying in posts is now fixed
Blur respects the current theme
Voting on a post in search now reflects that vote
Modifications to the profile screen. This will help with load times when all you’re doing is looking at someone’s profile
Performance improvements in the feed
Performance improvements in comments
Collapsing large comment chains no longer causes freeze/crash
Performance improvements in profile
Performance improvements in inbox
Here are the things being addressed that will be making their way into 0.1 TestFlight builds and should be available on the store either on Friday or Saturday:
New swipe animation. Much improved, more performant, and without the visual bugs we have right now
Error reporting. You'll get actual error messages now instead of the generic error codes Lemmy sends
Markdown enhancements. Pictures in comments should be there, and more than one image in a post will be shown
Editing or deleting a post
Improvements to image viewer. I cannot PROMISE that swiping through images (like a gallery) will be there but I CAN promise that there shouldn't be any further issues with swipe to dismiss or issues with swiping to close some images
Also, iPad users shouldn't have issues with viewing images in landscape mode anymore
Other improvements (I'll list them as we add them)
Other bug fixes (Same thing, I will list them as I add them)
Things to note:
I've seen some issues with subscriptions not showing up in the Traverse screen. I think this is a server issue, but I will verify that to be sure. I am experiencing this on Lemmy.ml and I think others are experiencing it on Lemm.ee. I wonder if a recent update (lemmy.ml seems to have updated) caused this. I also noticed that my upvote count on the profile has changed, not sure what that might be because of...
While Sean and I do try to go through posts here, it's MUCH more difficult than it is on GitHub. We have an internal issue tracker that syncs with GitHub that we use to triage and develop roadmaps. It's hard to do that with posts here.
Thanks for all of the INCREDIBLE support over the past day from you guys!
i have been loving the app! tried a handful and will stick with Memmy for sure.
Also experiencing the same traverse bug you mentioned with my own instance, fully updated to the latest RC’s. Not seeing the issue with lemmy.world though. tried to see if there was an open issue on github but couldnt see any for it under traverse or subscriptions.
Piggybacking on this, I loved being able to tap the top of the screen to go to the top of the page and then tap it again to return to where I was at. That and being able to tap the upvote icon/count under a username to upvote it instead of swiping or using the larger upvote buttons.
My favorite Apollo features I hope to see is a button to skip to the next comment or hold it down to go up. I also hope to see customizable gestures because I used gestures to save and share when swiping from left to right.
What Christian called the new comment highlightenator which displayed how many comments have popped up since last time you clicked the post. It would say the amount of comments then +x for how many are new
It was cool but it’s something I can live without out
