Just wanted to check how people felt about the app purely from a performance point of view. Is the app smooth? Do you notice a lot of fps lag? Are certain parts of the app more laggy than others?

The context is I've only got a few test devices and I've been adding a lot of features. I want to make sure the performance of the app hasn't degraded too much due to the amount of features added.

Please let me know, thank you! This will help me gauge if I need to tune performance a bit before I add even more features.

Update

Thank you for all of your responses. It seems that the majority of users are not experiencing any significant lag, so that's great to hear. It means I can continue to pump out more features.

One user did report issues with the community picker as well as the saved screen. I will be looking into these for the next update. I think the community picker definitely has some inefficiencies so that one is easier to optimize. Saved on the other hand is a little worrying as I don't recall anything too special with the screen but I will look there as well.

As always feel free to continue to post feedback about performance here. I'll review every message on this post.

For me,the community menu lags a bit as well as the saved post if there are many picture posts.

The saved post one is interesting as it should be using the same "tech" as the post list. I'll double check this. The one problem I can think of is that it shares the same screen as the saved comments view it's loading more items but it shouldn't be enough to cause a significant lag.

Thank you for letting me know about the performance issue with the community menu. I will take a look at it.

New user here on Pixel 7. Seems as quick and snappy to me as any other app I've tried or better. I'm still getting used to navigating with just functions being under the one main menu button, so I'm the only thing slowing things down.

New update is looking great, I noticed the vote count update seems to be working great so far. Thank you for all your hard work!

Nice nice. If you think there is anything that can be improved with navigation let me know.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Will do! Thank you again!

Incredibly smooth! I have a Pixel 6a, so not a lower budget level phone but also not a "flagship" either. It's one of my favorite things about Summit!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Awesome. Thank you for the confirmation!

Thank you all for the feedback. Please feel free to continue to send them in. I will read them all tonight once I have time to work on the app.

On a 2 year old Xiaomi your app is super smooth and definitely the Lemmy client that performs the best even in "tricky" features such as multi-communities.

Thank you for the feedback! Glad to hear multi-community is working well.
