Stopping autoplay wouldn't work so well for the feed video component. If you have to interact to see the video play, you might as well open it in the videoplayer. Maybe adding a disable "video display in feed" option would be a better idea.
Yeah, i's leaning towards a feature in the settings as the better option.
I had a look for something like that in the settings, but i didn't notice one. Did i miss it?
Judging by your username, the video was part of your update last week? Cool update, hadn't considered videos in the feed as an option Jerboa could have. Cheers. :)
Yes I worked on that update.
I meant more in adding such an option.
Yes indeed, I don't mind the autoplay on my tablet when I'm at home on my WiFi, but I'd really like to disable the video autoplay on my phone to conserve cellular data usage.
Thanks for the feature though, I'm looking forward to the next Jerboa update!
Oh right! Then yeah, i like that idea, i noticed its already an option for gifs.
Amusingly, your link does one of the few things that bother me about Jerboa: open in my default browser instead of the app.
Yes, it annoys me to no end as well. However it is a hard problem to solve as normally you register a domain to be opened in the app. But due to the fediverse nature of loads of different servers, the list would be very long.
I would be happy if you at least had an option of opening it in Jeroba on longclick or someting
The biggest problem is not the domain registering. We already link all "popular" lemmy instances through a script. The hard part is rather the id of that link is local to the instance. If ur on lemmy.world and click on lemmy.ml post we would need to translate the id of lemmy.ml to the id that it would be on lemmy.world. (This is possible) But a lot of work to hook that in correctly. We would need to intercept the link at the right place. Further if the post hasn't federated yet. We would need to switch to that instance (lemmy.ml) to then show the post.
Aha, did not know that the id was unique to that instance. But makes sense as it is just a number and not an uuid or similar so it would have to be synced.
I don't know anything about the source but couldn't you just open it in anonymous mode or something via the host's api? Would be better than browser
Yes we could but the "complex" part is the"link intercepting" part.
Jerboa still has a lot of issues, it just hasn't been priority yet.
Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.
Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.
Jerboa is made by Lemmy's developers, and is free, open-source software, meaning no advertising, monetizing, or venture capital, ever. Your donations directly support full-time development of the project.
