I tap the star icon to save a post or comment, but how do I view those saved posts?

I can't find anywhere in the app to view these

Hello, just trying to figure out how to make a single message as read - at present all I see is the “Mark All Read” in the upper right hand corner, but I’d like to mark them off one at a time. Thanks!

I've been encountering an increasing number of links which "may not available on your instance", even for posts which I know are available on my instance.

Here is a absurdly silly example where I used a remote link to one of my own posts. It can't be unavailable on my instance, because I made the post! :)

I figured it out. I have the community blocked. Lemmy is dumb sometimes. Why it will happily show me the post via a direct link, but not any of the comments is beyond me! Not even that comment I specifically requested. Makes no sense. It should show both the post and comments, or neither, and not this in-between, confusing state.

I wish I could say this was the first time this exact issue has happened to me.

Original post:

I'm using 0.7.0-1, and I clicked a post that had this link and Thunder said there were no comments, yet the website itself shows several.

The link is to a specific comment.

Incidentally, after submitting this post, I tapped the eyeball to view it and nothing happened.

I wanted to bring to your attention a feature from Voyager for Lemmy that could be a valuable addition to Thunder.

Voyager has a "Migrate Subreddits" tool designed SPECIFICALLY for Reddit users transitioning to Lemmy.

This tool streamlines the migration process by helping users easily find communities on Lemmy that are similar to the subreddits they've subscribed to on Reddit.

The process in Voyager is straightforward:

1. Users log in to their Reddit account and access their subscription list via the "multireddit of your subscriptions" link available in the sidebar.
2. They copy the link and paste it into Voyager, allowing the tool to automatically search for corresponding communities on Lemmy.

This feature significantly lowers the friction for users migrating to a new platform by minimizing the effort required to find and rebuild their communities.

Has Thunder ever considered incorporating a similar "Migrate Communities" feature?

It could be an exce

Hi all - I'm a several-times-a-day Thunder user and really enjoy the app. It's steadily evolving and improving which is awesome to see and I really appreciate the efforts of the dev team.

One thing that I think is missing is the ability to send and respond to DM's. Is that accurate (or am I just incompetent) and if so, is there an accepted alternative for handling DM's?

Posting a screenshot of the interface when I'm typing a comment reply as an example. I have large thumbs and I have to scale the keyboard up pretty high to be able to type. Thunder has what I would call a lot of wasted space in comment reply mode. The button bar could be hidden (it's not something I really use) and either the header text could be shrunk or omitted entirely. Just making the header scroll rather than being fixed could work as well. This would probably be a good use case for floating action buttons. There's basically only two things I care about when typing a comment reply: seeing the text I'm typing, and referencing the text I'm replying to. Would love some options that allow me to maximize the space used.

Seems to occur until app is restarted. If I use search, then to back to my home feed, open a post and then swipe to go back my keyboard still pops up.

1. Post a comment
2. Begin editing that comment
3. Press the pencil-icon "submit" button without actually having edited anything

Expected outcome: nothing happens to the comment
Current outcome: the comment gets a pencil mark

I don't remember how I ended up doing step 3 (I think I meant to edit yet accidentally hit the "submit" button), but that was my observation of this fringe issue, anyway.

1. Go here https://lemmy.today/comment/14903795
2. Hold your finger over any of that comment's links
3. Copy the link

Expected behavior: the share panel should close

Current behavior: it doesn't, which sometimes confuses me into thinking I didn't actually tap the button

If it's in the same line as the username, it gets overrun by the domain (for those of us who like to see user domains).

I go to settings -> general -> language

I select German/Deutsch and the other day the app is set back to English again. Why the app loses the language setting?

When sharing a post using the advanced share sheet it shows a preview. The preview is always fully visible, with no ability to scroll. If the preview is large enough, the send button at the bottom right is pushed down so that it is behind the android OS navigation buttons. This makes it impossible to send the post without making the preview smaller.

Could we make it possible to scroll? Or move the send button?

Edit. Added a screenshot. The issue isn't when the preview becomes too large. It's when the accompanying links are too long.

Feature request: Horizontal swipe for next/previous post in feed

I would love this as an option for navigating between posts, and I'm surprised that most Lemmy apps don't have this.

Joey for Reddit had this feature, as does the official Reddit app. Connect for Lemmy has this feature, and Boost for Lemmy doesn't show the comments in swiping mode. Eternity is the only Lemmy app which does it properly so far, but development has fallen behind in other areas.

Would the Thunder devs consider implementing this feature? It would probably win me over!

• Dependent on Issue #1363, merged last year.

Eternity has had this navigation option for a while now, and Summit [recently implemented

Has Thunder ever considered potentially creating a Thunder community Discord server?

I know there's already a:

GitHub,

Lemmy community,

and

Matrix space for Thunder, which is great.

But I was wondering if you've thought about expanding to Discord as well?

Alternatively, have you looked into Revolt Chat as another option? It's a newer platform that is similar to Discord, but open-source.

I'm curious about your thoughts on these additional communication channels, and if you see any benefits or drawbacks to potentially expanding Thunder's online presence in these ways.
