Does anyone have a blue sky invite to share? I'm quite curious to see whats going on there.

Back to work after a few days break.
While we wait for Apple to announce Google Glass 2.0 at , I'm experimenting with an improved post layout for @woollyapp

On the left the current layout, on the right with some additional info on boosts and favs.
What do you think?

Almost forgot I started working on a Bluesky app a few weeks ago 🫢
Anyone still using that site?
I just logged in and the main timeline is still a chaos of replies to people I do not follow.

🤔 here we go again...

The Pocket app on my iPhone was automatically updated to the latest version.
I haven't seen a jankier scroll since maybe Android 4.0 in 2011.
Everything is slow and jumping all over the place.

What is happening???? 🙃

mttvll, to random

Quick experiment with @woollyapp, collapsing and expanding replies with a long press.
Could be useful for long conversations - what do you folks think?

mttvll,

@poswald conversations are always loaded fully so this would only be used to hide part of the replies - a long press I think is a decent trade-off in this case

mttvll,

@PKYo ?? I'm building an alternative iOS client app, I cannot address Mastodon shortcomings.

mttvll,

@PKYo do you have anything in particular in mind the we could improve?

mttvll, to random

Reading long threads on Mastodon sucks, but it really shouldn't.

The next @woollyapp update will provide a dedicated screen to comfortably enjoy lengthy threads.

Time to try a new pricing strategy for @woollyapp

The latest update introduce a new lifetime purchase option, for folks with a severe subscriptions allergy 🤧

As always a boost is very appreciated!

Enjoy!

mttvll,

@podark thanks for the heads up, I'll look into it

mttvll,

@chrishering33 @woollyapp if you are enjoying the app and are confortable with subscriptions that's the way to go

mttvll,

@AlgonquinHawk you can cancel your subscription and when it'll end you should be able to purchase a lifetime upgrade.

The bluesky app is unusable for me. I follow just a handful of people, yet my timeline is a chaos of replies to people I do not follow.
How is that a good experience?
Guess I'll have to make an app just to add filters to that timeline.

Enjoy!

A small @woollyapp update is out on the store, fixing a couple of annoying bugs and adding an unread notifications indicator in the tab bar.

First Twitter, now Reddit.
These fucking companies are terrible.

What do they have to lose by putting in place a reasonable paid API plan for 3rd party devs?
And why the official apps are always garbage?

I feel for @christianselig and all the other devs that will have to shut down an app they worked on for years.

Adding something nice if you manage multiple accounts in @woollyapp: quickly replying/boosting/faving from a different account with a long press, no need to switch accounts.

Should it be concerning to me that @woollyapp app developer @mttvll has not posted to Mastodon for nearly four months?

No toots or replies on his personal or app accounts, no updates to any of the apps published in the App Store during that time.

Maybe he took a break, but people usually post that they are taking a break, rather than just disappearing.

Anyone heard from Matteo Villa? @yanlu?

🤔

mttvll,

@matt appreciate your message, all is well. just busy with life, and took an unplanned step back from the internet.

After a couple of weeks I’m finally back at work on @woollyapp

A little update is already out on the App Store, fixing a couple of pretty nasty bugs.

  • You can now add a column showing trending links to your main screen

Fixed timeline not loading all available posts

Fixed drafts not being saved in some cases

👇 Boost and enjoy!

@mttvll random woolly feature requests!

  • different cell shade for DMs
  • swipe to view multiple images when present
  • always able to view entire message when replying (it cuts off eventually)

Really liking the app! Timeline control and threaded relies are fantastic!

mttvll,

@mattiem thanks for the feedback, really appreciated!

I already implemented a different highlighting for DMs, but never enabled it :) https://mastodon.social/@mttvll/109839785839051378
I'll probably add an option to toggle it in the next update.

Swipe between multiple images, do you mean directly from the timeline?

mttvll, to random

Version 1.2 of @woollyapp is out on the App Store.

This update adds initial support for timeline position sync across devices (the option is disabled by default).

There’s also a new option to only load the most recent timeline posts when refreshing, instead of loading all available content.
This could be useful if you have a very busy home timeline and you don’t want to wait for all new posts to automatically load.
