Almost all stuttering during scroll has been removed!
For those who want to know the technical reasons, all the caching was happening on the same thread that was handling the scrolling, but moving it to a background thread makes it feel much better!
It also has the ability to resolve reports so there is less reason to leave the app than ever! Notifications for reports is coming next!
Also, the amount of swiping needed to start the upvote/downvote gesture is much higher (about halfway to the transition point), making scrolling a lot easier!
This update took a long time due to Apple's review taking forever, but I'm proud to say that the crash counts have significantly lowered in the beta, going from about 1 in 50 sessions to now generally 0 for every build! This also adds crossposting and many UI improvements!
Due to many people asking we now have T-shirts if you want to rock your Lemmios usage out around the world! Also just a very cool logo for people who don’t know it! Anyone buying this would be very appreciated!
So let me start this by thanking so many people for using Lemmios! But more people does come with some issues, I currently have 126 users on lemmy.world that have notifications enabled, which means enough requests that I am starting to hit their rate limits and a solution needs to be found. I have identified a few options:
Start requiring a cost for notifications in order to limit users (instructions to self-host server for no cost will be available)
Make notifications have a significant delay (definitely don't want this)
Offer to lemmy.world devs to pay for a higher rate limit just for the Lemmios servers (definitely ideal but Lemmios hasn't made any money yet and I'm a highschooler with very limited funds lol, I'll drop a donation link just in case anyone is feeling insanely generous)
There are currently 3 icons that just change the background, but if anyone wants to submit suggestions (or even icons would be amazing) we can start adding more!
From any post or comment in a community you moderate, you can easily ban a user with an optional expiry date and the ability to remove all content from that user!
I am thinking of adding live activities (similar to how apollo did), but it seems like it would be a fair bit of work and I want to judge how much the community wants it before I start the undertaking. Thanks for the input!
Lemmios is an iOS native Lemmy app with design language heavily inspired by Apollo.

Other features
Search directly from the top of the posts view just like in Apollo, usage without an account, and in-app account registration and deletion to name a few!

Hey, so this is just going to be a quick post discussing my frustration with app review and how I am hoping beyond hope that someone here will be able to give me some insight on the process and what I might be doing wrong.
Lemmios keeps getting rejected by Apple for "Users cannot have a mechanism in the app to enable or disable access to NSFW content; enabling or disabling NSFW content should be done through the service website" and I am extremely confused about what they might be referring to since I believe that is how Lemmios currently works. If anyone has any ideas I will try them since this experience has severely lowered my motivation to work on Lemmios.
For some context my current note to the reviewers is "NSFW content will only be shown after it is enabled on lemmy.world, which has not been done for the testing user, even though there is an option to blur it that option will do nothing since no NSFW content will be shown to the test user (unless app review goes to the website to enable it). There is also an attachment to show how NSFW content is labeled as such if the current user has already enabled it on the website. Also, to block a user, you have to go to that user's page and tap on the 3 dots in the top right corner and tap "Block". Thank you!"
