Just to check. The app crashes a lot, and that is fine. Still early days! But you do you get them? Or do I need to report them somewhere? If that would be even possible given I do not know what happened.

So far I has been:

  • scrolling
  • reading
  • upvoting
  • posting a message
  • subscribing to a new .. argh how do we call them here again 😬 subreddit

I will if you want but I don’t think these will help much. It’s a hard crash: app closes

Also I’m missing the “give feedback or report” thingie in the app. I’ve beta tested others and that was very convenient. Or do you want a new post in this … ffs “subreddit” 🤦‍♀️

Long press on the icon. It's a standard feature that works for all apps in TestFlight.

Thx! Didn’t know that. Thanks again: just shared some mangelend UI feedback 😎

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

No problem. I don't know if it's mentioned on the standard pages that everyone just clicks through, but it took me a while to work it out when I first wanted to give a developer some feedback.

As part of the installation via TestFlight, the app is automatically reporting any crashes, exceptions and other weirdness to the developer. On hard crashes you have an option to add information if desired.

On my device it hard crashes a lot but I cannot give any more info. The app just “plops” like a soap bubble.

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

Owh sorry, I might have spammed you with useless information then because I thought if I didn't, you wouldn't receive the crash data.

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

Oh I am not a dev 😄 - just another happy user like yourself.

I’m still confused on how to pronounce the apps name.

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

I think most people think of it like a word so pronounce it like a single word phonetically. It's the cute little onomatopoeia people use for animals sticking their tongues out/licking.

I don't think people are pronouncing any of the letters as the name of the letter (em-le-em) like you would for INXS for example.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

Mlem, exactly how you think its pronounced.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

According to dictionary.com it's pronounced mlem 😀. They do go on to explain it as:

The sound a dog (or other animal, such as a cat) makes when its tongue darts out to lick its nose or chops is called a mlem, in onomatopoeic imitation of the action.

So given your avi, you just need to listen to your cat for a while!

😮 Wow! I was todays years old learning a sound I must have heard a million times has actually a name. Amazing world we live in!

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

Haha, I'd heard it called a "blep" before but mlem was new to me too.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No crashes as of yet on this end. 1 day of usage, though. I like the app a lot and I look forward to seeing it grow.

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

On my end it crashes constantly. Like a soap bubble. What device do you have? I’m still stuck on a SE2020 with low battery health 🙃 .. it’s been a challenge to say the least. I’m a power user without budget atm..
