• fix own profile reloading (own comments/posts)
• new option to swap colors for voting buttons :)
• dynamic header added to post screen

so far so good I think? Dynamic header works more or less nicely I hope.

GPlay release will take some time because expo hit me with 3 hours queue for build.

• new settings screen
• data saving mode (settings -> behavior) that will not load images unless you open them
• new dynamic header for general feed (settings -> look and feel) for now, later will be rolled to more screens if everything will go fine

I know I've been slower with updates, but the app is fairly usable for now and I'm always happy to take feature requests into consideration. Want to experiment with new header for a bit as well... :)

Very small release that fixes how app behaves once it is opened (0.2.0 sometimes skipped loading feed until you tap something -- for some reason), now initial state loads correctly. Plus, feed will refresh once you change accounts (to avoid JWT token mismatch after you do something with posts)

With lemmy.world being down so much today I thought I'd better do this asap, to make everyone's experience easier.

new stuff

• Account picker. Is lemmy.world down again? Simply jump to your backup account on startrek.website and all's good!
• User banners in all user profiles (if they exist)
• Added notification toasts for a few more actions for clarity
• Changed how followed communities are loaded. Now you see all and they're sorted alphabetically. Downsides? Can't see subscriber count... for now.
• Some small stylistic changes across the app.

Do you think that this release is good enough to turn open testing into full release in Google Play? I'm thinking about doing that next week maybe.

• you can reverse voting buttons order in settings (I noticed that many people prefer it the other way)
• posts and comments will no longer flash/change opacity when you touch them, so scrolling them will be less distracting
• links to other instances will now open in browser instead of just failing with error (atm its impossible to grab local federated link from instance link sadly)
• added button "show all comments" on posts where you're just watching a child comment (/reply)
• show toast badge on file load
• display own profile banner (for now only own profile, next update - all users)
• added community icon to own comments/posts and replies
• added prompt window for adding a link to post

as usual, live on obtainium and will be there in google play soon

0.1.4 was skipped because it mainly contained fixes for google play store

• fixed post reporting
• now you can block community from feed
• fixed "load X more" button for comments (it used to output duplicates)
• fixed app permissions, removed few that we dont use

internal stuff:

• fixed crashlooping during build process
• updated eos version
• updated peer deps

Reminder about feedback post here: https://lemmy.world/post/2590198

This update will be in google play store today.

• What features do you think this app is still missing?
• What could be improved?
• Anything that just upsets you or makes your life garder than it should be?

I hate when things like this pop-up inside apps or websites, so I decided to simply make a post, even knowing it will reach smaller audience. :)

so far:

• Double tap on feed button should go to back to top
• Replies marked as “read” are still shown in unread replies
• A click on the own profil picture should show it in a bigger version
• comments flashing on touch in posts
• tap on top to change sorting
• more customization
• multilemmy (waiting for api on this one, dont want to ddos servers)
• Banner is not visible
• Community icons are missing on proifl page in “comments” and “posts”
• url prompt in md text
• posts flashing on touch in feed

Finally sorted everything related to google's review, privacy policy etc etc and now the app is available to download in Google Play store. Its a bit behind in terms of version, but it will catch up fairly soon I hope.

Note that its in open testing right now and might not be available from search.

Taking it slower for couple of days because I'm busy with work...

Anyways:

• More sorting options for feed
• New "Blocks" screen (from profile) to show blocked communities and people
• Block/unblock user button
• Some fixes for login page
• Fixes for scroll to next comment button behavior
• Updated most of the dependencies and lemmy api

Make sure to subscribe to our new home -> ![email protected] Link and full changelog will be here. Next (0.1.3) version announcement will be the last one in this community!

New thins in this release: new comment navigation, bigger touchable zones, instance ignoring and design fixes.

Link to post in the new community

• Ability to jump to next parent commend
• New action to comment a post
• Shorten large number of comments, votes i.e "1567" -> "1.5K"
• Ability to ignore instance or keyword in post source
• Action icons in posts and comments are slightly larger (additional 3 px radius around them) to make them easier to tap

Decided that I have enough fun things to bump a version number and release it, especially because I myself got tired of putting new nsfw communities to block from my "all" feed :)

Thats gonna be first release under the new name. I've decided to pick this semi-rubblish name because it's fairly unique and reminds of arctic foxes, which fits the app's icon.

Whats new?

• Ability to attach images to posts
• Fixes for posting in mod-only communities
• Fixes for spelling in few prompts
• Fix for commenting on posts that only include embeds (without text)
• Fix for embed rendering
• Small things causing crashes

Today, with the release of 0.1.1 I decided to rename this app to Arctius, to stop the confusion with OS Firefox fork called Fennec.

New home for the app's updates: ![email protected]

New things in the 0.1.1 include fixes for posting in mod-only communities, some typo fixes, new tab in settings to edit profile (display name, bio, email - for now that's all) and image uploading for posts. Post with link to new release, and all new posts will be created in new community. Cheers.

As I'm getting tired of linking same post over and over about app's name and since it seems as a major concern for some people, I've decided to hold a vote for future name of this app.

Have variants, think that current or my proposed name is fine, or anything else -> comment here. Let your voice be heard.

Current variant I'm thinking about:

1. Silverfox - no similar names on froid, some similar names on play store, that are not really popular anyways.

Don't forget to use Obtanium to get latest releases automatically. :)

While we're not on the google play store, you can use Obtanium.

Short tutorial:

• download Obtanium
• go to "Add App"
• type in "https://github.com/nick-delirium/lemmy-fennec/" to the first field and add the app.

Voila! Now you will get all new releases automatically or notified about it if you will chose "track only" mode.

I've been a bit slower lately due to taking a vacation, but I'm still making changes, new features and improving stuff that's here already :)

This updates brings comment/post editing, saved posts feed (inside "star" tab, neighbours with followed communities list) and some more smaller improvements

Small update: going to make a hotfix since post editing actually spawns a new post for some reason haha

Bigger update:

0.0.9 hotfix is out, download it instead: https://github.com/nick-delirium/lemmy-fennec/releases/tag/0.0.9

editing posts,....

testing editing body

Hello!

I've recently verified my account as a developer and created an internal testing release of a 0.0.5 version (the same one on the github releases). If you're interested in using Google Play signed version, please send me your email in messages. Thank you.

it feels like everyone starts building once I come home from work 😭
