LETS GOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
ROCKING IT WITH THE BACK TO BACK UPDATES!!!!!
This is exciting and it's great to have you back, churning out the updates and kicking ass as bugs get noted. Thank you for being so responsive when you can be here!
How does one sign up for the beta?
It is all beta.
The version number in the play store certainly is not '101'
It will be shortly. Just waiting for Google to approve.
As an Ultra subscriber and having paid for the reddit app long ago, thanks for the work you do keeping the app alive.
I'm assuming that's because this was a fully finished reddit app before becoming a beta Lemmy app.
They're completely separate apps so I see no reason to assume one has anything to do with the other.
discord. but the slots were offered during the early days.
I'm getting a bug where swiping to return from something (like this comment section) makes the app go black. It does return me to the previous screen, so it's fully functional, but the effect is a bit jarring.
Only when swiping back. Pressing the back button behaves as it does normally
Looking into this. Can't reproduce at all at the moment.
I'm on a Samsung with OneUI 6 if that helps. Can't give any more info at the moment!
Working ok here, S22 Ultra fully updated.
Device information
Do you see the age below when swiping partially or only when fully swiped away?
It's black until fully swiped.
Here's what I'm talking about. Light mode to make it more obvious. It's supposed to show a dimmed view of what's behind, but instead shows just black until it's swiped away entirely. That is something the app has started doing recently.
Oh it's way more jarring in light mode. I'm using amoled black with disabled animations so it looks fine to me.
Ok, yes that's what I'm seeing too.
I'm gonna try clearing the app tomorrow and get back if I still have the issue
Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about (in light mode to make it obvious).
I'm pretty sure it's meant to show a dimmed view of what is behind?
Still can't reproduce this but I've logged it and will pop over to the samsung store to try to replicate the issue!

Cool! It wasn't there before the OneUI 6 update.
Can you add controversial sort to profile pages too please? Call me a masochist but I'm curious which of mine were most divisive.
Done.
Great, thanks.
nice
It's live!
It always has been.
Those gms changes are meant to address the unusual background activity?
Or is it unrelated ? :)
Just updating as there was newer versions available.
What's happening there?
Wakelocks, Sync for Lemmy prevents my phone from sleeping.
As a workaround I have my app set up as "restricted" in the battery settings, if I change it to "optimized" it starts behaving like that.
This issue has been occuring to me with all AOSP roms, with MIUI/HyperOS it doesn't happen.
Can you tell which job is causing it? The full name given there would be super handy, cheers.
Ofc, here is the full job name:
The process number will keep increasing I think.
(I changed Sync for Lemmy back to "optimized" in order to get these errors again).
Can I ask why this was added in the first place?
There was an issue with users uploading things they shouldn't
Ah as in illegal things and not just porn? I suppose that makes sense then
Sync for reddit had twitter previews right? any chances it can be implemented in Sync for lemmy too?
I don't see how that can work anymore since Twitter doesn't allow anonymous viewing of content
it still works on sync for reddit
Sadly these were generated by reddit.
guess i have to check in with lemmy issues forum now
Swipe voting comments still shows reddit voting color scheme. Posts have updated to the lemmy color scheme, though. If there's a toggle for this, I can't find it.
