How did you guys get your fediverse real-time notifications to work? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] quaff@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 days ago

On iOS, Arctic for Lemmy supports push notifications. And Ice Cubes for Mastodon supports push notifications as well.

On Android, I've been using Moshidon for Mastodon and Thunder for Lemmy. Both apps support Unified Push (it's experimental for Thunder, requires a self hosted server as well).

They're great! I eventually switched from them for a better UI/UX though 🥲

Ability to change pinned posts to compact style in card view in c/thunder_app@lemmy.world
Anyone else feel that Thunder scrolling is not as smooth as other apps? in c/thunder_app@lemmy.world
[–] quaff@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Yeah, I'm coming from iOS (mlem) and tried out a bunch of different apps. I picked Thunder on Android cause it has all the features and style I want, but the scrolling and loading of feeds feels not as smooth/fast as other apps.

My instance has a bunch of pinned posts that stay pinned for a while... I typically use Card view which means those posts take up a lot of space!

Would it be possible to make pinned posts all compact in card view?

Or maybe letting us change between compact/card view for individual posts. Maybe that's a bit overkill tho. I really just want it for pinned posts 🥲🙏

PS: Thunder is so awesome. The experimental unifiedpush (and the thunder server!) is an awesome addition ❤️

Hashtags on Home feed (lemmy.ca)
 

I'm following #Vancouver hash tags and I don't see anything showing up on my Home feed; there's been new posts since following the hashtag though. Those new posts with the hashtag should be showing up on my Home feed right? I know they do on pixelfed.social.

I see a post on my pixelfed.social home feed for an account @pixelfed.ca that has #Vancouver in the post.. but on my pixelfed.ca home feed, I'm not seeing that post. I can search for it though? Is there some kind of home feed setting I'm missing?

Does anyone else have a similar experience with following hash tags that aren’t showing on the home feed?

Will the import feature be enabled at some point? I want to migrate my photos over, would be good to use the import function for that 🙏

Best app for Lemmy? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] quaff@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah. Apps make the experience of mobile that much better. Voyager is a very good web app. Its just missing the snappiness of a native app.

Raccoon for Lemmy is the closest I can find to what I want.

Curious if anyone has any other suggestions for native and open source in Android.

I’ve tried it! Both on iOS and Android. Maybe it’s cause it’s not native. There’s something about how it feels that isn’t the same as a native app.

For iOS, I use Mlem. It’s open source and updated regularly (the TestFlight version at least). It’s got a really nice interface. Lots of little customization options. Feels a lot like Apollo. My second choice is Arctic. A lot of great options, has push notifications. But isn’t open source (yet!) and feels like it’s slightly less polished than Mlem.

I’m looking for Android equivalent to these two apps, but I’m not see anything remotely close.

Clicking on some posts will open a seemingly unrelated post. (imgur.com)
 

I'm not sure what's going on, but I'm noticing on the latest beta, that some posts (haven't found a pattern) will open to a completely unrelated post.

Actually... usually it's related to !TenForward@lemmy.world, I'm not sure why (I could be wrong too). It's something I've noticed maybe 5-6 times in the last couple of weeks?

I've linked to a screen recording, hopefully it's obvious to you @CreatureSurvive@lemmy.world

Sentence case for “Open in Arctic” (lemmy.ca)
 

Latest share action to Open Lemmy links in Arctic is super handy! Thank you @creaturesurvive@lemmy.world !

I notice that “Open In Arctic” has “in” capitalized, but every other share action on iOS seems to be sentence case. Any way you can make the new Arctic action match the other share actions? 🙏

The latest icon in TestFlight is gorgeous! I am loving the ~~mountain~~ iceberg 😍 is there anyway we can get a few variations though? I would love to get that mountain on a orange or reddish background if that’s simple to do 🙏

Exclude subfolders for specific media types (lemmy.ca)
 

Hi there, I’m new to Jellyfin (fresh from Kodi!), and trying to setup my library without reorganizing my media folder.

I was wondering if there’s a way to exclude specific subfolders from being scanned for a particular library (without adding .ignore files), while not ignoring the subfolder in a different library . E.g. scan in the movie library, but ignore in the shows library.

Displaying OP name@instance for Home feed posts (lemmy.ca)
 

Is there anyway to display the name and instance of the OP for a post in the Home feed? I see the name displayed for Community feeds.

[Feature Request] First tab icon tap should jump to the top (lemmy.ca)
 

The biggest feature I notice missing in almost all Lemmy apps, is jumping to the top on the first tap of the tab icon of the view you’re in.

E.g. you’ve scrolled down a bit while in the Posts tab, then you tap the Posts icon, in Apollo, it would jump to the top of the list view in Posts, then second tap would take you to the communities subscribed slideout view.

Avelon does the second function but not the first. Would love to see this added as it’s a great quality of life feature IMO.
