Can we get rid of this white overlay while watching pictures in light mode?

First of all, I am not a psycho for using light mode :p

I use dynamic mode, so I get light mode on the day and dark mode at night, I think having this overlay with dark mode has no visible effect (at least I haven't noticed it with my AMOLED screen), but as you can see it is clearly visible when using light mode.

And now while I am asking for stuff... Can we get the article/link preview as a toggle?

I am having some issues while browsing stuff if I have IPv6 activated (and it is a pain in the ass to deactivate it in Android), I suppose this is an ISP issue... So some image preview takes longer than it should, the same occurs for link previews which can take ridiculous amounts of time. I appreciate the feature and I find it cool, but for my environment it causes more issues than what it offers.

Kudos to the Summit dev, I hope this post doesn't bother you on your vacations!

What do you think of this explanation of why not going Open Source?

I am not following these claims carefully, but I have seen tons of copies of Lawnchair in the Playstore.

Another recent event that comes to my mind is the Simple apps, which AFAIK they always were open source? But that didn't matter until it got sold and then Fossify was the non shit version of it (the positive side of open source).

PSA you can use Scaled and Controversial sort types in Sync for Lemmy even if it hasn't been integrated in the app if you set them as your default sort type in the web page settings.

Hi, as soon as I noticed this was a thing I headed to this community to let anyone else know that you can use the newest sort types in the Sync for Lemmy app with that nice workaround... But I just found a lot of "Sink and Sync threads" here that I actually thought the sort bugged my app/feed lol, what a good timing.

Anyway I hope this is useful for you guys until the new update arrives... Soon ^TM

Is anyone experiencing this high background usage with Sync?

3 hours in the background seems a lot to me.

I started the app clean and configured it from the start (it was a pain in the ass because I migrated my settings from Sync for Reddit lol) and the issue still remains, having this huge background usage prevents my phone from going to deep sleep properly which lends to a bigger battery drain.

EDIT: BTW the issue is gone when I set the app to restricted battery mode instead of optimized... But I'd rather keep it in optimized as it closes less often in the background, that is how I had it with Sync for Reddit, which on average its active background was several minutes only.

EDIT 2:

This is the process that Battery Guru/BBS says shows
