Try it!

If you already have either the iOS or the Mac app it should prompt you to update. You can relaunch the Mac app to trigger the prompt.

Changes

  • Add setting to hide read posts in feed
  • Fix comments not showing up after submitting
  • Fix bug where saved posts feed was only showing posts local to your server
  • Refresh inbox tab more frequently
  • Cache user profiles
  • Improve performance of post feeds (most noticeable on iOS)
  • Fix dark mode flicker
  • Fix youtube embeds where video ID contains dashes
  • Increase the sizing of the login form to make it to use

Appreciate all the feedback so far!

I’m struggling a little to get the performance I want on iOS. I’m curious if anyone is using an older iPhone. I would love to hear if you think the app feels snappy enough or if there’s room for improvement. If you could leave a comment or DM me with the phone your using and what you think.

    Downloaded for my Mac, the first thing I notice is that I am unable to set a default sort for posts, or comments.

    Not all of my subscribed communities are listed, despite there being a community panel on the left and a subscribed panel on the right. Neither appear to be in any sort of order, and I do not see a way to order them.

    One of the things I like about the stock lemmy web interface is it has a field for a thumbnail, so I always post YouTube videos from the interface so I can ensure there is a thumbnail. Would this be possible to add?

    I love the fact there is a draft panel.

    Inbox shows read replies, without from what I see, a way to hide those. And I do not see a way to mark replies read.

    I really love the way the colored lines are for comment chains.

    Keep up the work on this, I am really liking Blorp for desktop.

      Just pushed an update!

      Close and reopen the Mac app and you should see a prompt to update. Alternatively you can download the update from GitHub.

      This update includes:

      • An “Unread” tab in inbox
      • The ability to mark notifications as read/unread manually
      • Create post let’s you include a thumbnail along with a link
      • Subscribed communities are now sorted alphabetically
      • Moderating communities now show up in the home feed when you select “Moderating”
      • And more!

      Note: Post and comment sort always remembers what you set them to last, so there is no default sort like Voyager. I know Voyager let’s you customize this a lot more. I chose to keep it simple for now, but let me know what you think.

      I would love to work with you more to collect feedback and ship improvements.
      Feel free to DM me, open GitHub issues, or message me on Matrix.
