Can you give like a concrete example of how you would use this? It will help me figure out the best way to implement the feature. Thank you.

I don't think notes support the same functionality as user tags in Summit. In addition, their name suggests longer form text which means it likely shouldn't be surfaced in compact UIs such as a comments section.

The general feeling I get is that these two features seem to aim to solve the same problem but in slightly different ways.

I just block all news on here and read the newspaper daily. It's made the news a lot more boring and normal.

Oh I was thinking of user tags. Will have to figure out where to surface this information. Added to roadmap.

Thanks for reporting. Will fix in the next release.

I think this is technically possible but it is annoying to implement. Added to the roadmap. As a temporary workaround I suggest hiding pinned posts manually.

Thanks for reporting will fix in the next release.

This is a limitation with the OS and not the app so unfortunately there is nothing I can do on my end.

Yeah this is a common issue. If the posts are correctly cross-posted, you should see them listed as cross-posts of each other so they are at least easier to find.

Aggregation is possible but there's a lot of different ways to handle it and they all come with trade offs. I haven't seen an approach that I like yet.

Basically this is a difficult problem to solve. I'll add it to the roadmap.

This doesn't seem to be possible today. I can't find any API on Lemmy/PieFed that supports tagging/notes. If they do support it it is currently not exposed to 3rd party clients.

Added to the roadmap.

It's a valid question/suggestion. This was just how I chose to implement this feature from the start which was to keep the thumbnail and link separate. I think most apps do combine them so that tapping on the image opens the link instead of the image.

When I was designing this I wanted to give a clear way to interact with the link vs the image. Combining them makes it murkier. Eg. what if someone actually wanted to download the thumbnail?

I think combining them definitely makes more sense for optimizing for the most common case though.

I think given the behavior of other apps this is probably a losing battle for me. I'll give this more thought and revisit the design of this.

This is a pretty unique problem that will require some work on UI design side so I will add this to the roadmap.

I'll add this to the roadmap for now since this change is sort of complicated.

I went overboard and I am adding two new ways to delete them in the next version. One where you can long press to be able to select multiple items to delete at once and also a delete all button.

Added to the roadmap.

I can reproduce the issue. I should have a fix for it in the next release.

No problem. I forget that imgur isn't accessible in some countries.

In your example the post has both an image and regular link which is why the app shows both. The app will not show both if the post is a purely image post. An example is something like: https://lemmy.world/post/51036218
