These threads used to be really useful back on Reddit.

I'm currently finishing off full app translations for the next release along with lots of the usual bug fixes.

What should I prioritise next?

Cheers, Lj

Please note this is just a beta and there are going to be bugs, but it works and it works nicely. Have fun.

Hey all, just ran into this this morning, I was replying to a comment and it showed up at the same level as the comment I was replying to until a refresh. I'll see if I can reproduce it for screenshots in a bit. Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me so far?

I noticed with QPR3, the back gesture in Sync now shows a black screen during the animation.

Could this be fixed? I read it'll become default in Android 15.

On posts that I access through my home instance, i.e. any post present in the "Your local instance" feed, nothing appears in the comments section apart from the message "There are no comments", despite the UI suggesting that there are several.

When accessing the post's permalink in the web UI of the instance, the comments show up without issue, even when logged in.

To reproduce, log in to sync with a lemm.ee account, switch to local feed and click on any post that appears to have comments. For example: https://lemm.ee/post/35476369

For some reason I haven't been able to replicate this on any other instance (tried with .world and .ml, both of which don't seem to have this issue)

Vote Scores Not Showing (midwest.social)

Hi there,

It seems that my midwest.social account has stopped showing the upvote count on posts and comments sometime over the last few days. My Lemmy.world and lemm.ee accounts show them fine still.

Ive tried logging out and back in and still no dice.

Anyone else having this bug?

Samsung Galaxy S24, latest play store build.

Anyone having a new issue where swiping from the left to go back to the thread list from a thread doesn't load properly and instead shows a black screen for a second or so.

Screen recording: https://imgur.com/a/bvzkyfu

All animations in the settings are enabled.

Recently I started noticing that a lot of posts will mark as read for a second then go back to unread when viewing just the image or article. It's not all posts though and I haven't determined a pattern yet, but opening the comments seems to mark as read on refresh even though the post looks unread before refreshing.

I'm on version 122 of Sync on Android.

Starting yesterday, when I click a link to view the image or comments, the link doesn't appear "read" when I go back to the feed.

I know Sync hasn't updated, but yesterday I updated Chrome and rebooted my phone, in case that's relevant.

I keep clicking the same posts over and over and can't use Hide Read option to only see new stuff.

I can't see what I'm typing in landscape orientation. I type in landscape 100% of the time.

It happened recently, the share function doesn't seem to be pulling the URL from the page.

Edit: this is with Firefox mobile beta 127.0b9 as my default browser

This is not happening on every post, but I'm seeing "There are no comments" more and more on posts where there are comments. The comment counter in the example pic shows 8. And I know there is at least one (I made a comment).

Any ideas?

Edit: I did try clearing cache and storage with no effect.

How can I see totals per up and down vote in sync? Right now it combines them.

Images not showing in body (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
submitted 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) by NinjaFox@lemmy.blahaj.zone to c/syncforlemmy@lemmy.world

Not sure if it's just me but I've noticed I've never seen any images in the body of a post on sync, though I have on a browser. I assumed in the past the user just forgot to add images but I now found a button to open them. Are they meant to be embedded in the large empty space?

Just incase this issue is widespread and nobody can see, Il note that I have attached 3 images showing the issue.

I had posted this a few months and it's still the same issue.

If I search for a community using sync it only shows around 6-7. And that is also in the explore bar, it doesn't do the search in the dedicated search page.

Am I doing something wrong or is this still the case?

As the title asks, is it possible to migrate the settings for an account to a new phone? Would hate to have to set it up again..

I think a lot of people forget to check where they are before replying to things (me especially). Serious replies show up in shitposts and are then apologized for, joke comments are made in communities that are more serious, etc.

I was thinking it'd be nice to have the option to make me click through a confirmation of the community I'm in before crafting a data-driven response to something in an askmelolz group.

Bonus points for making it big and colorful :D
