Hello, Mlem Community!

Tonight we bring you another update. Not as massive as the last updates, but still with some wonderful new goodies to test and enjoy! See below:

NEW ADDITIONS

  • New, gorgeous Profile tab!
  • Added the ability to delete posts and comments
  • Added option to show user's server in command and post views
  • Added Lemmy 0.18 new sort options
  • Updated reply field to display account name and the username you're replying to
  • Added setting for default sorting for comments and posts

BUG FIXES

  • Fixed subscribed communities only showing the first 10 communities
  • Fixed OP users not showing up as orange
  • Fixed account connection issues if the server domain name contained "v1" in it
  • Fixed favorites duplication issue in the community list
  • Fixed posts with no thumbnail URL displaying incorrectly

KNOWN ISSUES

  • Tapping comment text in profile does not navigate to comment in context. Tap comment link instead.
  • NSFW images embedded in description text do not blur. (this is a Lemmy issue)

MORE TO COME

  • Full a11y compliance which should work perfectly with iOS's Accessibility functionality like Guided Access and Screen Reader coming. Each build comes with increased functionality!
  • Messages Tab
  • New & improved fullscreen image viewer
  • Inbox notifications
  • Custom app icons

Again, please keep in mind that this is beta software. As such, it's not feature-complete and there will be bugs and unexpected behavior. Enjoy testing, and we look forward to hearing your bug reports via TestFlight and your feedback! You can comment here or come chat with us in The Mlem Space on Matrix.

Enjoy!

Looking good!

Very nice profile page!

And thanks for fixing the issue with not showing all subscribed communities. So much more unusable now.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago

profile page gives me chills, we shall carry Apollos legacy ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Finally I can view all my saved posts inside the app 👍🏻

Thank you so much for the great update

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

Note that there are still some issues with the profile. It doesn't currently page any content so it will only fetch the first set of saved/commented/posted content. Hopefully next release I have that working!

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

Just found this app and it’s nice so far!

[–] ImFresh3x 14 points 1 year ago

Amazing. Loving the new sorts. And the profile tab. 🤌

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

I’m a big fan of this app. The compact view is really good

[–] loaf 8 points 1 year ago

Love the update!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Thanks for this! One issue that I find annoying is that on my iPhone 8 Plus, scrolling posts (on the posts page) is extremely choppy, especially when they contain images/pictures.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

That may very well be a SwiftUI issue.

You guys are fast!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

has the total karma count been removed? i can’t see my post/comment scores anymore.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

that was a bug and probably wan't accurate. If you look at your profile on the web interface, Lemmy does not dispaly that information to users.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Lemmy's web UI doesn't, but the API seems to provide that information, if I understand PersonAggregates correctly.

https://join-lemmy.org/api/interfaces/PersonAggregates.html

I assume its post_score and comment_score.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

If it does become available I’d love for it to to be optional so we don’t have to see it if we don’t want to. Really happy with this app, thank you!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Great work! The new profile view is definitely gorgeous and seems very polished at first glance. Once again, I'm very impressed! I can't wait to see what comes next. 😀

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

It could be cool to have a different color for your own name in your own comments.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Awesome! The addition of the profile tab is huge. Definitely getting increasing Apollo vibes and it’s really helping my mourning for Apollo. Just needs a similar icon and I can go into full denial!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

More icons coming soon!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Jep this is the first version that works for me. Thanks a lot!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Awesome! A really great update!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I assume there isn’t notification support (/notification counter) yet? Profile tabs looks great, GO DEVS!

Could we have + button at middle bottom to write a post instead full widght textbox?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Great work! I find it by far the best Lemmy app on iOS atm

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the great update. It has improved the experience of using Lemmy on my phone so much.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Thank you so much for fixing the communities list; I can see all my subscriptions now. One question though, I can’t seem to find how to edit my own posts and comments. Am I missing something or is that feature coming soon?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Great update! The subscribed community page and profile pages look great now!

Thank you!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

The info in the profile tab was the only reason I’ve been leaving Mlem. Now I can live here lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Is there a way to search for communities/users?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Any chance you’ll add a Dracula theme or other color schemes?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No other color schemes are planned for the near future.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dang! Well I wish you guys the best of luck! Not that you’ll need it, haha! The app is looking and feeling great 👍

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

there have been some discussions about a lower-contrast "grey" theme (as opposed to the "dark" mode). but that would come later. the idea is to focus on the content, not the app, itself.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Awesome! Update is great, keep up the good work!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Mlem has the best name and fkn rules

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Dang this app is awesome!!! A good UI makes such a difference in using Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Amazing work mlem team! Using it right now and the profile page is indeed gorgeous!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Very nice! Please also consider a “share as image” option 😃

Looks like the comment timestamp is now just set to whatever the post is. Not sure if that’s an app bug or a lemmy bug.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Mlem is looking like the true successor to Apollo, amazing work team!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Great work, fantastic QOL upgrades in this update!
