I'm on 423. Bug fixes can be hit or miss sometimes. A fix may address some but not the entirety of a problem. The changelog did cautiously mention fixing some causes of this issue. But surely the dev will come back and resolve it some day.

Lots of small bugs.

Actually I think I ran into it just now and the text field became empty. However, because I have save draft enabled, I just backed out and went to reply again and what I typed up was restored. I'll have to pay attention to what happened just before that may be triggering this.

I haven't done many Piefed searches so that mag be why I haven't noticed it.

The sorting issue I do see from time to time. It seems like a caching issue and refreshing the feed will fix it. It's not limited to the Connect community and I don't think it's just New either.

Until the issue is resolved, an alternative is to post using your browser. Sometimes I do that for certain Piefed functionality that haven't been implemented yet.

I remember that issue now. Not sure I've ran into it myself.

Perhaps, but if you could provide more details on the sorting and Piefed issues, it may be something other users are having as well.

Could you expand on what you mean by the sticky selector? Also on New sorting for Connect. I have my default sort as New and it seems to work fine for communities, including Connect. As well as the Piefed issues.

Blocking a user blocks an entire comment tree

I think an option to hide blocked user's comments would be useful in cases where replies to their comments are corrections or pushback that one may want to see and upvote.

weird background colour/highlighting on (some) comments

Jump

sirxdaemon @lemmy.ca 1mo ago

Once you view a post, any comments should be marked as read so the next time you visit the post, only comments between then and now should be highlighted. Sometimes there may be a caching issue and if you find the highlighting is off, try refreshing the post. Usually the feature works fine for me and I find it useful so I have it on.

For comments, you can delete right from the context(three dots) menu but for posts, you have to edit the post and the option to delete will be in the top right. You can delete or leave it up, up to you.

Reminder: Clear your Connect cache!

Was that over your cache limit? I thought that was fixed and enforced. I've been keeping an eye on my cache size and it doesn't even go over like 400MB. But I also turned off image and video preloading.

Text highlighting on edit

Tap as in single tap right? Also do you have swipe typing on? Last question, this is with Gboard?

Text highlighting on edit

Jump

sirxdaemon @lemmy.ca 2mo ago

Could you clarify on the issue? I haven't been able to reproduce the issue, on 422, on either Heliboard or Gboard. What I've been doing is double tapping, or tapping and holding, a word and the highlighting seems to working fine. It seems to be at the point where I tap and start at the beginning of the world and end at the end.

Vote counts on own posts and comments does not properly update.

The changelog for v1.0.422 mentions fixing and optimizing the caching system and if you're still having th issue then let us know.

Hide Read Posts Not Working Correctly?

Jump

sirxdaemon @lemmy.ca 2mo ago

Yeah, it's a current bug. The feature was working before and I think it's an easy fix so it should be back to normal in the next update or two.~~

EDIT: Scratch that, it seems to be working fine. I'll have to check this out in more detail.

EDIT2: Are you possibly trying to hide a sticky post? Because currently you can hide it but then it comes right when you refresh the feed.

EDIT 3: Ah, so if you hide any post, it will hide it but it doesn't seem to be saved because once you refresh the feed, the post that should be hidden is back.

"Continue Thread" button on long comment chains does not do anything

I've piggybacked reports by just adding a reply to my own posts so if you want to do that, I don't think anyone would mind.

To add to the report, I've seen this with posts that have 100+(or maybe it was 150) comments. Smaller posts don't seem to exhibit the problem for me. Sometimes tapping on view more, I get a message at the bottom that it can't load the comments, but after a few seconds, the comments proceed to be loaded. Sometimes, message but no comments. Sometimes it's an error exception about not being able to find the comments.

If you open the same post on your computer and then come back later, it would also be out of date until you manually refreshed the page. But when it comes to mobile apps, I think people are more used to content being more up to date.

Perhaps content, when grab, could be timestamped and when the focus is regained on the app, it could automatically refresh content that are say more than an hour old.

Until tweaks are implemented, users can manually update content info without having to clear the cache. It depends but sometimes just refreshing the post or feed will do. In some cases you do need reopen the app.

The user vote total setting is not on by default so if someone does not see any point or value in it, then they can just leave it off.

At least for me, I'm not predisposed to voting based on a user vote total. But I did recently read a post where someone mentioned they automatically downvote some posts without reading as a Reddit habit. So I can understand if some have reservations. But I don't think that user is representative of a large swath of Lemmy users. And not everyone had the user vote total setting on.

That said, I do appreciate your input and reply. It was just an idea I had and if it's not a good idea, well that's fine.
