what's going on with post titles - inconsistent in showing read / not read? (retrolemmy.com)

When I click on the title of a post (I use list view) to see the comments, and then go back to list view, the text style of the title is no longer indicating that I have visited that post. It still shows a change when I upvote or down vote the post. It used to show a change when I followed the actual link (url), but that went away weeks ago. Why all the changes? I'd prefer Jerboa to indicate that I have seen a post if I interact with it in any way. That is, I would expect that clicking the url thumbnail, the title text, or one of the arrow buttons would mark the post as 'seen'.

I use Jerboa version 0.0.84 from fdroid on Android 10, and the title still changes to light face when read. This might be not a design change but a complex bug? You'll probably have to report this on Github if you want help.

You are probably right. It wasn't long ago that I ran into some strange behavior that resolved within a day or so.

This one just struck me as more deliberate, I guess, because the change to the way posts aren't shown as viewed when URLs are followed has persisted for weeks.

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.
