I know the developers are working hard and I'm sure they'll be coming with Mlem updates. I hope to see a notification centre being added, as well as the posts being collapsed instead of full-length. Do you wish for an Apollo type of design, or similar?

Edit: just a heads-up, I am not in any way affiliated with LemmyNet nor its devs. You can also voice your suggestions via Testflight by beta-using Mlem.

Currently:

  • Option to upload media from within the app
  • A button to write a new post, rather than having to navigate to the community and use the box
  • A notification centre
  • Improvements to viewing user profiles
  • Better link handling
  • More colour contrast between posts and the app background
  • Edit buttons on posts
  • Option to view images fullscreen and save them to gallery
  • Improvements to the search bar
  • bUg FiXeS aNd PeRfOrMaNcE iMpRoVeMeNtS

Ideas for the future:

  • Custom icons
  • Customisable UI
  • Profile editor
  • Inline video playback
  • Easter eggs?

Good luck, and great job so far!

Yup, Iโ€™m also heavy on the customisation aspect. Would be fun with custom icons like you said (the dev said they would implement community-submitted icons in the future), as well as in-app themes like Reddit/Apollo had.

I'm working on Mlem accessibility issues, can you please describe what you mean by "More colour contrast between posts and the app background" so I can make sure to document it correctly?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Really just the way posts look against the dark grey background when dark mode is on. Dark on light looks weird to me, and occasionally makes it difficult for me to tell where one post ends and another begins when I'm skim-reading. Personally, I'd suggest making the posts slightly lighter than the grey background, then making the background black (or something very dark, like #262626).

That makes sense, I will look into it. Thanks for the feedback.
