Thank you for making this app! It feels like an adequate alternative to liftoff, but I am having some (usability) problems. Could be a “me”-problem, though, since I am still getting the hang of the app and also the wall of settings it provides.

  • I cannot subscribe to any community. The button does vanish for a split second but just reappears. Tried it on multiple, but never worked.
  • I am using the left-handed setting. But the “preview” popup of a link has the buttons inconveniently on the right.
  • I can’t find out to jump to “all” or “local” posts of a specific instance.
  • Up/downvotes are on the left, but comment count on the right. Would be cool, if there was an option to have them together.
  • default up/downvote color is inverted from my point of view (up is red, down is blue). Would be cool, if there was a simple switch button without having to pick the opposite colors manually.
  • Drafts are saved but I can’t find them. A menu in the composing-post would be cool.
  • Something else, I currently can’t remember.

Thank you!

Edit: oh, it would be cool, if “save post” could be pulled out from the submenu beneath a post or comment.

Edit2:

  • the community-popup (button on top left) has a weird “back”-history. A popup should be always first to close. Also it should be modal since you interact with everything in the background and can’t close it tapping outside.
  • settings are weirdly bugged if you return from a category back to main. If i use the button on top left, everything works. But when I use the system back button, I cannot click on any category anymore. Though, I can still scroll.

    Well shit, I didn’t know that. It has been a long time since I touched Android dev and also never needed that knowledge.

    One app I rarely use, uses some event that is triggered when it goes to the background or whatever. As soon as the app leaves the foreground, it shows the “saved” toast. It works both with the home button for the “desktop” and also when using the “open apps” switch UI (whatever that is called). Of course that is a step before the force close and is more complex to to handle for you since the editor window is not closed.

    Thank you for putting up with my shit xD
