Hi Lemmy! I've just uploaded a new version, and this is the changelog:

- Show if an user is mod, admin or bot (A, M and Bot) next to username.
- Highlight moderator distinguished comments
- Show community moderators in community sidebar
- Set the default feed on app start from settings (Settings-General)
- View cross-posts of a post. While visiting a post, tap the π icon to view a list of cross-posts
- Cross-post a post to a different community (Post menu, Share, Cross-post)

Thanks to all of you supporting the development of the app. You are the best! β₯οΈ
This is a distinguished moderator comment
Huh, I even left a comment saying that I can't see the [M] nor [A] and that went sideways :(
No, you ARE the best, that's a great update!
Thank you!!
Moderation tools should already set this app apart from the others, and the other features are a nice bonus.
Trying it out now, thank you!
Have the moderation tools been tested for admin level moderation, or should I tread carefully on that side of things?

Not sure if they work for admins, it hasn't been tested or implemented
Good to know thank you! I'd imagine admin level functions are a whole other challenge for devs making fediverse apps.
I tried out this version and this is what I'm seeing for admin stuff:
-
On the desktop UI, Lemmy combines community mod reports and admin level reports into one feed. On Boost, I can see all the reports the same way, and so it's consistent with the desktop interface. I'll need to wait for more reports to come in to properly test it.
-
On desktop, admins can take mod actions on all posts. On Boost, I only see the button in posts from communities I moderate. I prefer this over how it works on desktop, since I think admins should limit their interventions to the communities they moderate (unless there is a serious problem).
So as it is, Boost might already have the right level of support for admins. I can see reports, but I can't accidentally cause larger issues. Important admin actions are more rare, and they should probably be done through the official desktop UI
-
This is all very impressive even though I'm not a Mod of anything.
Show if a link is already posted when creating a post, and where.
This feature kinda blows my mind.
Great work!
The Lemmy API is close to perfection, the devs did a good job
Must be nice to work on something that has the API fully available to you instead of locking newer features to the official app
Thanks for all the work! Boost is what finally got me into the fediverse and Lemmy.
All the best to lemmy for futureπ₯
Thanks for building an awesome app!
Huh. It doesn't show a new update available for me. Wondering if the Canadian Google play store is just a couple hours behind.
Edit: Wait nevermind saw the beta thing
pls pls pls remove downvote buttons on instances that have them disabled :)
Yes sir
don't rush or anything i didn't mean to sound rude :) i appreciate all the hard work you do! :))
Mod tools!! Thank you!! Just keeps getting better.
Loving the view cross posts, and creating cross posts too I gotta try that
You are a legend.
This is great, I've been increasingly using Boost over other apps, but the lack of moderation features was a problem.
The mod features look good so far, will we get notifications of reports?
Yes, I forgot to add that
Default feed on startup was my biggest pain!
Default feed has always been a feature, I've just created a setting for easier access π
Love you for this.
Great update! I'm still waiting for mark post as read on scrolling :)
Same! Only reason why I'm still using Sync instead.
Are the mod tools available for admins too? Can find them when checking my other account.
Great update!
A M B.... asimov predicted this
Is there any way to filter out read posts on the main feed but NOT on your own profile? Every time I want to see if a conversation on one of my posts has continued I have to manually go into settings, enable read posts, and then I can continue. I'd love it if the profile page ignored that setting or had its own unique setting for your own posts.
I believe that's how Lemmy works, if read posts are filtered, they are filtered everywhere. I agree they should be visible in profiles, at least on your own profile.
Ah damn. That sucks. Might need to be a request to the Lemmy devs then instead. Thank you for the reply and all the work you've put into the app.
Any chance we could get an easier to access toggle for hiding/showing posts, maybe in the meatball menu next to the clear read button? Had to go hunting for it again to even see this post.
No rush, but any update on mark post as read on scroll?
Working on it now
The feature is here. Thankyou and I love you! <3
Looks like the mod tools are broken. :(
When I ban someone for 1 day, the modlog shows it for 3 years.
It seems to be consistent, a 3 day ban comes out as 9 years.
Thanks for reporting, wrong expiration date calculation... I'll fix that π₯Ή
Is there support for logging in with a kbin.social account?
