Developer of Connect here. Congratulations on the launch and Liftoff looks great!
Seems like most reddit clients are named: "BlaBla for reddit". It makes it easy to find clients for reddit. I wonder if this would also be beneficial for lemmy clients.
Yeah I agree. It would be easier to find. When I search for Liftoff, there is a bunch of games involving planes.
After downloading it and using all afternoon. Love it my only comment on the UX
Thats it. Otherwise it is pretty nifty.
I cannot comment on a lot of stuff i can with jerboa for some reason. It throws "you are not logged in there"
Was having trouble figuring out how to collapse comments... Finally stumbled on pressing and holding. Maybe this will help someone else using Liftoff.
We're making it a simple tap in the next release so don't get too set on the long press :-)
This is how I have it in boost, comment controls (vote, reply etc) hidden by default, simple tap to show/hide those controls, long tap to collapse comments.
Any chance you can add swiping to hide posts once you've read them?
It's so handy to be able to refresh or come back later in the day and see totally new posts.
Thanks!
This is a pretty nice app! I especially like that it shows me content from multiple Lemmy instances, without my home instance needing to federate with them!
I have some feedback, though: when I see content from lemmy.ml, the app should use my lemmy.world account to vote and comment, as if I were viewing that instance through lemmy.world. It really defeats the purpose of federation if I can't use the same account, after all.
I second this, intensely! It's very silly...
The link works for me, but for some reason I can't find it when I search for it in the Play Store? I tried "liftoff", "liftoff!" and "liftoff Lemmy"...
Might want to have the app autoselect some form of instance/community. I watched the loading circle for a minute before I started clicking around and selected communities to see it did in fact work.
What about Fdroid?
Signing in to first account only let me use email not username (lemmy.world) second account attempt to add (beehaw) produced an error. Android, Google pixel 6 pro. Didn't really want to post here in your launch post but couldn't find a place to enter bugs.
I think beehaw is having issues
Yeah beehaw was down
I've got it installed via github but it doesn't show up in the search in the playstore for me
Excited to see more apps being developed for Lemmy.
My favorite of the options I've tried so far, only request currently is to be able to remove the bottom bar when scrolling down the feed.
Ahhh, smooth scrolling! NGL that is the only thing that was pushing me away from jebora!
Really nice, but I'm wondering about some choices
Why "everything" exists?
I thought All meant that, while Local meant your instance only and Subscribed is whatever you are subscribed to.
Also, this seems to lead to some issues interacting with other instances overall. I can't subscribe to an instance while looking at everything, even tho it is federated to mine.
I can see why the devs did it this way Maybe organization and all? But is it not defeating the purpose of the Fediverse?
I love it so far, thanks for your hard work making the migration from Reddit easier.
One question, Im trying to send my friend a link to am article a post is looking to. The share button exports the lemmy link and not the actual article. If i click open in browser, it opens the federated instance hosting the article (kbin in this case) and not my browser, so i still have no way to copy the link right to the article. Any ideas.
Again, thank you
Just downloaded to check it out!
Loving this app! Very intuitive and user friendly.
I'm using it right now and my Subscribed view only shows lemmy.word communities, even though I'm subscribed to communities from other instances. I still can browse them from the subscriptions section, but they don't show in my main view.
Edit: oh, found the setting that allows me to see ALL my subs, I guess.
Edit: nevermind, that setting also shows me communities that I'm not subscribed to... even though I'm selecting subscribed in the top dropdown.
Using it right now to post this! I like it!
Nice app! Feed view is not compact enough, though. I like the preview pane for settings, but it's not useful if I can't get my desired results.
Good job, the more apps the better!
I'm trying it right now. It's pretty good, I'm liking it more than thunder.
Edit: (editing from liftoff) ok, it's more than "pretty good". Let's wait and see what Sync for Lemmy comes up with, because liftoff is off to a great start.
This App is very well done! Significant improvement over Jerboa, great work and thank you!
First time seeing this app, it looks incredible! I love seeing all the customization option for simple things like shadows and rounded corners. I am having issues logging in with a lemmy.world account though.
LOVE LOVE loving the UI
The app looks great but I am finding that I am unable to participate in discussions on instances that I am not logged in on. Am I doing something wrong?
Check the feed dropdown at the top of the page. If you're using [email protected] you should be able to interact with everything you see. Using the everything feed or any other instance feed may well show you stuff you can't interact with.
That helps! Also I was clicking on the community/poster name to respond instead of clicking on the comment section at the bottom of the card.
Nice app and working very well. Thank you!
Open a post in one of the logged in accounts would be a great feature!
Thank you for the AMOLED black π€
WE HAVE LIFTOFF!!!
Got to get that low hanging fruit.
I downloaded it in morning but unable to login and search.
I love that the screenshots are of the poop post
Really nice app
