  • scrolling is excellent. some apps that have swiping gestures trigger swiping when I scroll an it gives me a headache.

  • the top right button on the feed page need some separation between them and the sized could be increased a touch.

  • when opening a comment, either from your profile or from inbox there's no option to expand the full context or show all comments.

  • in the traverse tab it would be good to have along with subscribed ones (which I think it what it shows right now) have a tab for federated and All.

  • Move the account switcher from the top of the feeds tab to a long press on the profile tab.

  • Search, how does trending communities work? the "trending" communities have zero subscribers and no content (not sure if this is a bug or if this is the data that Lemmy provides to you, sorry if you have no control over it).

  • on the profile tab, have the default view be a combined posts and comments view.

  • can the community name on posts be a bit bigger and have option to include the favicon?

  • add more "sort by X" options like sort by top hour, etc

that all being said the app has been rock solid for it's initial release. I unfortunately can't review it because I'nm running beta software (iOS 17) but once it goes gold in September I'll definitely be dropping a review on whatever version is out.

As a former Apollo user, there are two features I’m missing that I would love to see added in the future:

  1. A jump to next comment chain button. Tap to jump down and hold to jump back. It makes navigating lengthy comments sections much faster.

  2. I imagine this one is pretty hard to implement, but I loved being able to return to a page I just closed by swiping left from the right edge of screen in Apollo. It wouldn’t just take you to the post either, it would take you to the exact spot you were at, so if you were deep in the comments, you could jump right back in where you left off. This feature is so useful for swipe-based apps like Memmy where if you accidentally swipe out of a post before you were done reading, you could easily swipe back in.

  1. Currently in progress as we speak.
  2. Yea, I like the idea and it's not as hard as you'd think. Not easy, but not impossible by any stretch.

I second point 2.

Also a way to have some subscribed communities not show in the main home. I can’t always watch sports live and don’t like getting spoilers before in can watch. Akin to the multi-Reddit.

I just want the feature to share with photos and comments like in Apollo where it screenshots it. It was my favorite feature
