Connect 1.0.131 Released

Hi, I wanted to get more into theme and customization improvements but a lot of great feature requests came up and I ended up just implementing those instead. I might need a better system to compile release notes soon as in the past week there have been 11 beta releases and it’s a bit tedious to go through each to compile the...

“Connect is as much your app as it is mine.”

And it is that user focus and can-do attitude that makes Connect my favorite Lemmy app and Kuro an exceptional developer. Thanks to Kuro for weaving the magic bits and to fellow Connecters for your suggestions and observations!

Yeah, unfortunately that egotistic extreme response is prevalent and encouraged in current affairs.

I also noticed this “sorting” of saved Comments after the saved Posts.

Looks like an opportunity to Post a [Feature Request] , to either correctly sort Saved posts and Comments together, or have a selection/filter to display just the saved Posts or saved Comments.

There are some Lemmy apps that do have this option to display saved Posts or Comments separately.

Connect 1.0.120 Released

Hi, past couple days have seen a influx of new users so welcome everybody! This release is aimed at improving customization options and some requested improvements. The secondary buttons on post cards can now be customized, added a ‘Hide above’ option which will hide all posts above the selected post, and the upvote colour...

My vote for next changes would be to have granular theme customizations (choosing specific color to apply to specific screen elements), AND the ability to export / import themes and settings. Tablet UI features would also be nice (e.g., landscape mode for posts | comments in side-by-side panels).

Currently, I don’t see a way to create a community on the sh.itjust.works instance. Perhaps contact one of the mods?
Or, if you have an account on another Lemmy instance that allows community creation, you could create one there.

Appreciation thread amidst other app hype

Just want to say thank you to Connect dev Kuro for making Connect for Lemmy. Amidst all this hype for Sync and Boost, Connect remains ad- and subscription-free without compromising quality. This app is bomb and I won’t be veering off to competitors anytime soon. Bonus points for being Canadian too! 🍁 Thank you!...

Fedilab is quite good, lots of customization features. You can get it from F-Droid.

I see that version 1.0.106 has implemented coloring the Sort value with the Tertiary action color in the header. Looks great, thanks Kuro!

+1 for Niagara. It smoothly combines simplicity of layout with under the hood features such as popup folders that can hold apps / shortcuts / widgets, and notifications that display next to the associated app.

Are you trying to format the text using manually entered markdown symbols (for example, two asterisks before and after the text for Bold), or trying to use the markdown ribbon tools shown below the comment box)?

I am not able to apply any of the formatting from the markdown ribbon tools, no matter what font size I select.

Testing the OP comment reply username color affect… yep, that works!

Connect for Lemmy has such great customization features, and Kuro is a dedicated and responsive developer. Definitely my favorite Lemmy app for Android. It’s exciting and rewarding to see this app improve.

If you are so inclined, go to the bottom of the Settings screen for links to Rate the app and Support the developer with a donation!

Vivaldi, for sync between desktop and mobile, blocking ads and trackers, notes feature, and interface customization.

On Google Play Store, search for Connect for Lemmy, then look for Beta Tester and sign up. The next time you get app updates, the Connect beta version should be available for installation.

[BETA] Connect 1.0.96 Released

Hi, happy Thursday everyone. Just a small release which brings an option for per-account settings, settings now auto-save (no more ‘save’ button), and an option for turning off volume button comment navigation. and a minor bug fix. Going to be testing it a bit and then hopefully it will be live later today....

Very much appreciate the quick attention to fixes, and ongoing fine-tuning and features. You are crafting an excellent app!

I think this disabling of the Volume buttons is related to the Comment Navigator feature.

This is in the Settings / Comments Customization / More info / Comment Navigator

If you turn ON Comment Navigator, then when you press volume up or down it goes to the next / previous comment. However, this disables the normal volume up or down function.

If you turn OFF Comment Navigator, this ALSO disables the normal volume up or down function!

So it appears Connect may be hijacking the volume buttons, within the Connect app. If you switch to another app, the volume buttons work.

This is an excellent documentary, with commentary and insights by creators well-versed in Lovecraft’s life and writings.
