Just updated and full height images are gone. I miss them. It's basically like using thumbnails, having to click into a meme to read the top and bottom text. Please allow for full height images/cards again.

I prefer the shorter images myself, keeps it looking nice and clean. Maybe it makes sense for it to be a toggle option in Settings for those who prefer to have it?

[–] DaniloT@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

They commented on this in the thread for the release of this version, they will make it a toggleable option.

We've reverted this as it was an unintended consequence of trying to fix some scroll bugs. Full height is back!

Oh that's great I just updated, thank you

[–] yo_accountant@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Seconded. I really miss the full images as well. I find myself clicking every image now just in case there is a hidden punchline.

The reason I've been using using Liftoff over Connect for Lemmy was because of the full height images. I agree, the functionality needs to be brought back as a setting

[–] MorganCS@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yes, please fix as fast as you can! Thank you for your hard work

Not much else to add. I would also like full height images back.

[–] voracread@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

This would be a good feature as an option along with fixed size placeholder to prevent jumping around of the feed because of slow loading images. If full height images are the only option that would not be possible. So having an option and fixed height placeholder would be best.

Glad I'm not the only one. It's definitely one of the features I prefer over Jerboa at the moment

[–] Chuggowitz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I installed lift off to see if I liked it better than jerboa, and initially the answer was yes... But the short images are a hard pass for me.
