Newer lemmy versions have the option to add a thumbnail url yourself when creating a post. It would be nice to have that also on Voyager.
Apollo had great media sharing capability. Ability to share videos and gigs and images.
That’s all I want.
Lots of images are webp but when I share them I just get the link to the file instead of a downloaded and cached media share.
Oh and when viewing responses to a comment I’ve made I’d love a button to see all responses to that comment, and then a further button to see the comment that I commented on if it was not the OP.
Thanks
I would like to see mod logs for other users because I think that would be funny
That is in the plans, just need to do it in an app store compliant way
The one major thing I’ve been wanting since day 1 is the ability to peruse the mod log of others without having to jump through hoops. If I’m modding a community and want to see what has been said/done elsewhere to see if it’s a one off or pattern, I have to dig for it.
From a user standpoint, it’d be great to have the ability to see the removed/edited history of a comment inline. I realize this is likely a limitation based on app store rules, but even just having this option on the web only would be nice.
Yes, I'd say there is a pretty good chance of better mod features this year. It will probably be a gated/buried setting to enable.
This is frankly not a huge issue, but in the iOS app, sometimes pulling down to refresh doesn’t remove read posts. I also have the setting that shows the button to remove seen posts. Tapping on it doesn’t seem to do anything. When this happens, I just close the app entirely and try again.
This is literally the only problem I have with Voyager. The app is otherwise perfect. Thanks for the incredible work!
i really like voyager. one thing irks me though, and it's sort of hard to explain...
when i press the back button in most applications, the expectation is that i move one level back in a tree structure rooted at the application entry point. in voyager, back is more like stepping through my browser history.
for example, if i'm viewing a single comment, depending on the way i got there the back button may take me to either a) the thread that comment was in, b) another post that links to the comment, c) a profile, d) something else, probably.
now, this is not necessarily wrong, but it clashes with how i use apps. whenever i want to "reset" an application without closing it, i usually press back until i'm at the aforementioned root of the tree. with voyager, this is difficult to gauge because depending on how long i've been usinc it, the back button may go to comment > thread > community feed > community selector > feed > comment > selector > profile > comment > thread > post > feed > exit.
i don't really know how i would fix this behaviour either, just that it feels off compared to other apps.
Do you receive enough to make a living improving voyager?
I would like tags I've made for users to allow a dropdown to select ones I've previously made. For example, I've tagged numerous people as Zionists or Tankies, and would like to be able to quickly select that tag for new users to the list, instead of having to type it out and select the color.
i have a privacy/security feature request:
lock screen prompt when trying to switch profiles.
currently all it takes to switch is two clicks, no identity verification.
so if you have a regular and a NSFW (or otherwise private) profile, and you give someone your phone to look at a post, it's easy to switch to a profile that should be gated behind a verification screen...
infinity has this feature, and it's really nice for peace of mind!
otherwise voyager has been excellent all around! thanks for putting the work in!
Loving it, Voyager is great to use.
Would like a way to pull up a list of instances federated and defederated with my own.
Also, an easier way to get a non-voyager link to a comment to then post for people.
My trouble with both of these might be faulty user errors.
Search bar for settings. So I can tour a word in the settings page and quickly get to the relevant setting.
I’m glad it has accessibility features!
I just want to chime in and thank you for putting together this awesome app. I use the iOS app not than anything else on my phone, and I probably use v.programming.dev more than any other website on my Linux PC.
The big feature I would like to see. As if when you block somebody it doesn’t block the entire thread.
It should only block that one individual.
So for example, if I respond to somebody will call that person Jon. And then John responds to me and I’m thinking yeah this guy‘s getting blocked. Itnot only deletes out John‘s comments. It’ll delete mine too. But let’s say somebody responded to one of my messages in that thread, Well their stuff is gone too. I don’t know if this is an issue with Lenny . world or if this is an issue with this app or what the problem is, but it’s a bit of a problem.
If I block somebody who is an active user in In the groups that I’m involved in, I pretty much don’t see anything in there anymore because of how the blocking feature works
Am I just blind, or is there no way to search the comments?
Edit: i'm on iOS version 17.7.1 on the actual application not the Web app
Could we add the “disable downvotes” option that lemmy had in native settings. Ie. it’ll hide downvotes and behave according to upvotes only.
I know this is technically possible in voyager if you’re on an entire instance with downvotes disabled, but lemmy settings let you do this with a single account, which voyager does not.
ALSO I’m loving the new label/tagging system. :)
I'd love it if deleted posts included a link to the mod log to easily see if it was a case of moderator power tripping or just some asshole commenter.
I’d like to be able to see profile information, or at minimum a link on the profile page to open in a browser. There’s also a bug with the image viewer where it seems to zoom with only one finger and gets pretty broken.
Why does android not have filtering when iPhone does?
Android has the same filtering. What are you seeing?
This guy doesn’t have it on the main page whereas I on IOS do.
It looks like they are logged out
Love this app honestly. I have two issues that have led me trying other apps, though I ultimately come back.
First, I don’t know how to describe it, but trying to press and hold an image to save it, for example, seems sluggish and non-responsive. Sometimes it ignores my press entirely, sometimes it waits a while then just “zooms” the image a bit, and it often takes me 3-4 tries of trying to open the context menu for it to take.
Second, sometimes when I try to swipe back from a post to the feed, it gets “stuck” halfway and requires a restart because the post is still “open” and any touch input just shifts the post left or right, but won’t actually return me to the list.
Otherwise, it’s a great app, and no other suits me nearly as well, so cheers to that!
This is a bit of a big ask and maybe something that needs to be done in lemmy core, but I’d love it if posts of the same image/link posted around the same time were consolidated into one item in the feed.
