Hey CrispyWeinis, I want to express my apologies that I’ve made you feel as if you’ve wasted your money. That was of course never my intention but it’s clearly the situation that a lot of people are feeling.
Thank you for raising the question and I hope to turn things around in the coming weeks. I’ve posted a dev update to the Bean community.
Hopefully you can bear with me a little longer to fix things.
I’m extremely sorry you were put in that tricky position of moderating a channel that the dev was inactive in as well as dealing with the feeling of being scammed — I messed up, clearly!
As for the messages, I have not logged onto the web UI for Lemmy in quite some time and obviously have not been as active as I should have been here so didn’t catch them so I’m sorry if you felt like you were being ignored by me.
I’m hoping I can turn things around and correct the lack of updates both in development and communication in the coming weeks. I’m not going to make any excuses, I should have done a better job and I’m sorry about that.
Oddly, communities aren’t loading for me on Bean right now. They are working from desktop and Voyager, so I don’t think it’s a server issue. I’ll keep trying throughout the day though....
Thanks so much for checking in! I really appreciate it ❤️
It hasn’t been particularly pleasant but I can feel that I’m getting on the mend now which is good. I ended up seeing a doctor yesterday as I couldn’t swallow at all and it seems that I developed Tonsillitis too. I’m taking antibiotics so I’m hopeful that they kick in soon and I can feel myself again.
Oh that’s an oversight on my part! I presumed that Apple’s subscription system would allow you to switch to lifetime but it looks like it’s just between monthly and annually.
I’ll push an update to allow you to should your sub be cancelled later today or tomorrow.
It shouldn’t have! It looks like App Store Connect changes the pricing sooner than I expected. I’ve set it back to the promo pricing which should be reflected in app soon.
If you’re accepting theme requests, would you consider something like the reverse of Midnight? An overall light blue look, with dark blue accents. Sort of like this image I borrowed from Etsy. Bean has a lot of great “dark” themes, but I’d say only Notebook qualifies as “light,” other than the standard Light theme,...
I would be nice to have inline/embedded video playback directly in feeds and/or in the post view (with or without auto play, that could be a user setting)....
Would it be possible to add support for transparency in the avatars? Especially the one at the bottom of the app. Mine (and I know others do too) has a bunch of transparent pixels that show up as white in this app but look normal on the web version of Lemmy.

Hide username
Could you add the option to hide the username in the home feed? Just the community name would be enough for me.
