Hi, past couple days have seen a influx of new users so welcome everybody! This release is aimed at improving customization options and some requested improvements. The secondary buttons on post cards can now be customized, added a ‘Hide above’ option which will hide all posts above the selected post, and the upvote colour can now be customized (also applies to the new comment counter and swipe action background on upvote tiles).
Changes
- Upvote colour can now be customized
- Fixed a bug with the subscribe button not being in the correct state within About Community
- & symbol now renders correctly on posts and comments
- global setting moved up within the Settings page to make it more obvious
- filter terms now accept regex (should start and end with a “/” eg /foo/)
- spoiler tags should now work for multi-line spoilers
- Added a toggle to display comment debug information (shows id, children count, hot rank, upvotes, downvotes - probably only useful for debugging).
- Fixed an issue where ‘View More’ is showing when it shouldn’t be
What would you like to see next: Tablet UI or more granular theme customizations?

Also, you should add a “paid key” that we can download from the play store so we can pay for it and support you. I make some money from Google rewards and I don’t mind donating them to something I’m using. Just a suggestion.
I’m amazed how light weight this app is. The quality is here, it’s basic and it doesn’t take huge space.
A well done app!
I was thinking about being able to comment with one of the other logged account.
While browsing with one of my multiple accounts, I comment and can choose to post with another one.
I don’t know how this is possible and if I was clear.
I think you could do that with Boost for Reddit, but I can’t go check because fuck reddit for breaking my favorite app. Anyway, based on that it may be possible but also Lemmy works entirely differently so… Maybe
I think Sync had it too. It pretty useful to scroll with one account and pick one of the 10 alts to comment.
Thanks for all your hard work! Can’t believe how great Connect is in such a short period of time.
Whenever you have time, could you implement saving your place in the comments when coming back to a post. Sometimes I exit a post by accident and when I go back in its takes me all the way to the top.
+1 for that feature.
Thank you devs for doing all the hardworks for this project<3
Upvote colour can now be customized.
Woohoo! This looks so good now, thank you Kuro!
Feature request: Hide annoying emoji display names (show usernames)
Not sure if this is what you’re looking for but ‘show instance tags in names’ will show the real usernames and not display names.
Thanks, it works! The setting is a bit confusing though, I didn’t understand what the setting does until you explained it.
But still shows the display name (if a user has one) before the instance tag though. What OP meant I guess was just showing the original username (even the user has set a display name)
I’d like to see a way to scroll to the top on a single button press. If there’s one then I’m blind lol
Allowing us to customize the comments more would be nice. Like I don’t want the top level comment to collapse when clicked, just its replies. Also it would be nice if the left padding on the comments was reducible and the colour bar could be made thicker.
Thank you for all your hard work!
Auto collapse comments would be cool
Looks great, thanks for the hard work!
Additional theming would be nice. Personally, I would like the option to move the upvote/downvote arrows and points count to the left of the post in list mode.
Beta 122… I’ve taken to hiding posts a lot now.
One thing I’ve noticed is that the “Post Hidden” notification at the bottom of the screen seems to appear somewhat randomly, and it doesn’t disappear unless I manually swipe it down.
(EDIT: Looks like most/all of the bottom-of-screen toast notifications seem to get stuck. “Posted Comment” is still there from this comment I’m editing.)
The toast requires the feed to be scrolled down in order to view it with swipe to hide but shows up normally with the hide button or actioned through the post options menu. Imyalso hoping it’s fixed since I mainly use swipe to hide but I guess for now I’ll probably use the hide button.
Suggestion: Maybe a line-spacing setting to go along with font size?
Also… a real tiny request… can there be a space between the avatar pic & username In the comments view?
Thanks for the update. Yay the page numbers are not showing.
I’ve noticed that the first time I try to hide a post after opening the app, nothing happens.
Every time after that, it works as expected.
This is both from the Hide Post swipe action, and from picking the Hide Post option from the … menu on a post in the feed.
I’m glad to see that posting a comment no longer brings me to a single comment chain page. However, the app still puts my view to the top of the thread instead of keeping track of where I was, so I have to scroll down through everything I’ve seen already to get where I was. Is this fixable?
Thanks for the feedback, I’ll take a look!
Maybe it was fixed earlier, but now I can finally actually login using this app.
