Off topic: the onion needs to resume making videos again. Their “news” videos were amazing and most of them are still relevant today even though most of them are 12 years old. Also sex house was hilarious. Please bring these gems back 🙏

I don’t really think it makes any sense personally for it to be there. The point of the button is (1) for users to know the post was cross-posted somewhere else and (2) a tappable item that if the user taps will display all the locations it was cross-posted too.

Another user made a good point that it should probably appear after the title because it reads better. Eg. you see the post first and then you see that it’s cross-posted. In addition, it ties the information to the post which makes sense. It shows the user “this post has been cross-posted elsewhere”.

If it appeared by the name, it would be confusing since the immediate context is the name and community. A name or community being “cross-posted” makes no sense. You can’t cross-post a person or a community. You cross-post a post.

I’ll just do “Under the title”

1. Wow I did not format that table correctly. Will fix.
2. I considered this but the issue is I am worried I will need to add another badge in the future. Giving it its own row adds an easy way to add more badges in the future.

Lol that’s a joke. It’s meant to be a choosing of your choice. Although if you want it in the notification bar…

+1 to under the title (I’ve been staring at this for too long, I think this one looks most pleasant).

I also tried some other places like in the header. However I am not favoring those places just in case I have to add another badge tomorrow. Ideally this solution should scale to more than just 1 badge type.

Nope. The app never supported this but this is on the roadmap and coincidentally i am in the middle of implementing this. I’m having some trouble with the UI design aspect but it will happen.

I’ve been trying to add the app to F-Droid but they are pretty strict so I have not been successful yet. I got pretty close though. Maybe I’ll pick it back up.

I would argue that https://lemmy.world/c/summit?dataType=Post&page=0 is the much more universal link although I think I can shorten it a bit. The issue is that !summit@lemmy.world will only be recognized on Lemmy. If the user is using instant messaging, their SMS app will not recognize !summit@lemmy.world. https://lemmy.world/c/summit?dataType=Post&page=0 however should be recognized everywhere, inside and outside of Lemmy.

Added to roadmap.

Oh I see. I think this is a disconnect between app design and user expectations. The search screen is meant to be a full scale search. For subscribed communities, it’s expected for users to use the “my communities” pane. You can see this pane by swiping from left to right on the home screen.

Thank you for reporting this issue. I should have a fix for this in the next release.

This feature is already in the app. It’s just sort of hidden. To search within a community, tap the Search button in the navigation bar. Then tap on the search field. Tap “Filter by community” to search within a community.

I can’t reproduce this bug. Either I fixed the bug in some update since this post or I am not reproducing it correctly. Could you please check to see if this still happens? Thank you!

Added to road map

Super random facts that probably do not matter, and are just for fun:

If you are downloading the app from github, the issue is that you are downloading all configs/translations for all languages. As more languages get added the APK size will balloon. This issue isn’t present on the play store build since the play store will generate an APK with only the relavent files to your device. For instance between now and 1 year ago, the play store build grew from 6MB to 6.5MB.

Added to the roadmap.

I think this issue should be fixed now. Please verify on the latest version of Summit.

Added to roadmap.
