Can we get a "block all non-english/non-default language communities" button?
I'm glad the people from Danelund and Germandy are doing their thing on Lemmy but I don't know what the fuck any of it means and it makes for a lot of block button tapping. A toggle would be very nice.
I know I can view subscribed and there's ways around this but I want an "all" feed I can read all of, with fewer taps.
Sync is great, thanks for everything!

Can't submit images
I am axtive in communities that requite uploading images, but i haven't been able to properly upload any images using Sync in months. The communities are across multiple instances, so I believe it is a Sync issue.

Has anyone heard from the Dev in the last 5 months?
Pretty much the title. There's plenty of things that need to be addressed and as a sync ultra paying customer I feel that the Dev should at least try to maintain their software. Curious if anyone else has tried emailing him?

Vote counter gone in Android app
Am I missing something? Yesterday there was a visible vote count next to each comments username. Today there is nothing. Maybe a setting I accidentally changed? I can't for the life of me figure it out.

I can't find anything in any menus.

Sync doing rather badly on formating check (placed 18 out of 20!)
lemmy.world UPDATE! Fewer than 20% of Lemmy Apps display posts accurately - Lemmy.World> Updated! Updates are shown in quote text like this. Some scores are updated following app updates. # An Apps Experiment ## Introduction This is an experiment I performed out of curiosity, and I have a few big disclaimers at the bottom. Basically, I’ve seen a lot of comments recently about one app ...
The linked post essentially performed a benchmark of lemmy apps and if they properly display the formating options available. Sync got 3rd last place, position 18 out of 20 apps, with a score of 6.9 out of 10. There's a comment that essentially contains the test set. I hope we get some fixes, cause some of the problems have been around for a while.
In my personal experience the issues with spoiler tags, and some of the embedded images and their sizes is rather annoying. For example this comment shows perfectly fine on desktop, but becomes a garbled mess on sync (as you can tell by my comment, blaming the bot). Also note that while sync technically gets 3/3 for the images, the last image should be text-sized between the "arrows". It isn't, it's just huge (and consequently a pixelated mess).
Edit: fixed link to example comment for spoiler.

How to open community from bang syntax?
I'm sorry if this is a dumb question. I figured there would probably be an easy way to do this but I haven't been able to figure it out. Suppose I have a bang-syntax community such as "[email protected]" copied to my clipboard. How do I open this community within Sync? Everything I've found so far just searches for this as text.

Since yesterday, posts and comments have stopped showing vote counts. Is this a bug with Sync or did I press something I didn't mean to?

Posts aren't marked as read on secondary account
I added a second lemmy account to Sync and on that second account posts aren't marked as read after I opened them. Sometimes they get marked as read after a reload, but only sometimes.
Is that a bug? Is there a solution?

Newly posted comments displaying in wrong position on comment tree
Hey all, just ran into this this morning, I was replying to a comment and it showed up at the same level as the comment I was replying to until a refresh. I'll see if I can reproduce it for screenshots in a bit. Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me so far?

June Pixel feature drop + predictive back
I noticed with QPR3, the back gesture in Sync now shows a black screen during the animation.
Could this be fixed? I read it'll become default in Android 15.

Comments on posts in home instance not showing up
On posts that I access through my home instance, i.e. any post present in the "Your local instance" feed, nothing appears in the comments section apart from the message "There are no comments", despite the UI suggesting that there are several.
When accessing the post's permalink in the web UI of the instance, the comments show up without issue, even when logged in.
To reproduce, log in to sync with a lemm.ee account, switch to local feed and click on any post that appears to have comments. For example: https://lemm.ee/post/35476369
For some reason I haven't been able to replicate this on any other instance (tried with .world and .ml, both of which don't seem to have this issue)

Vote Scores Not Showing
Hi there,
It seems that my midwest.social account has stopped showing the upvote count on posts and comments sometime over the last few days. My Lemmy.world and lemm.ee accounts show them fine still.
Ive tried logging out and back in and still no dice.
Anyone else having this bug?
Samsung Galaxy S24, latest play store build.

Sync Bug? Most posts are not marking as read
Recently I started noticing that a lot of posts will mark as read for a second then go back to unread when viewing just the image or article. It's not all posts though and I haven't determined a pattern yet, but opening the comments seems to mark as read on refresh even though the post looks unread before refreshing.
I'm on version 122 of Sync on Android.

Links no longer showing as read after viewing comments/image
Starting yesterday, when I click a link to view the image or comments, the link doesn't appear "read" when I go back to the feed.
I know Sync hasn't updated, but yesterday I updated Chrome and rebooted my phone, in case that's relevant.
I keep clicking the same posts over and over and can't use Hide Read option to only see new stuff.

Comments not loading
This is not happening on every post, but I'm seeing "There are no comments" more and more on posts where there are comments. The comment counter in the example pic shows 8. And I know there is at least one (I made a comment).
Any ideas?
Edit: I did try clearing cache and storage with no effect.

Images not showing in body
Not sure if it's just me but I've noticed I've never seen any images in the body of a post on sync, though I have on a browser. I assumed in the past the user just forgot to add images but I now found a button to open them. Are they meant to be embedded in the large empty space?
Just incase this issue is widespread and nobody can see, Il note that I have attached 3 images showing the issue.

How do you search for communities?
I had posted this a few months and it's still the same issue.
If I search for a community using sync it only shows around 6-7. And that is also in the explore bar, it doesn't do the search in the dedicated search page.
Am I doing something wrong or is this still the case?

Feature/Option request: An overlay, when replying to any post or comment, that reminds the user what group (subreddit sigh) they are commenting in.
I think a lot of people forget to check where they are before replying to things (me especially). Serious replies show up in shitposts and are then apologized for, joke comments are made in communities that are more serious, etc.
I was thinking it'd be nice to have the option to make me click through a confirmation of the community I'm in before crafting a data-driven response to something in an askmelolz group.
Bonus points for making it big and colorful :D
