Im using on iphone 12 running on 17.3.1(latest version) and the apps version also latest on 1.0.8.

Having a feature to edit posts or comments after they are published within the app itself would be great for correcting mistakes or adding additional information.

In October, a new sorting mode was introduced: „scaled“

This allows sorting posts based on the size of the community in order to avoid the feed being dominated by large, active communities, and pushing smaller communities. This was one of the main blockers for me to move from Reddit, so I’m glad it’s finally implemented. Therefore, I would love to see this sort option be available in Avelon on supported instances.

Thanks!

I think Avelon has become one of the best Lemmy apps for iOS, but there is one issue that is preventing me from buying into Pro and making it my default: inline video only for video and gifs.

This is such a huge drawback to otherwise great app; the native player has simple, intuitive and familiar controls; allowing users to switch to horizontal, mute, pause, rewind/forward, etc.

Is support for the native player disabled intentionally or is this something that is in the works?

I’m either blind or this isn’t a feature of this app yet, but there doesn’t seem to be a feature yet to add an account to a block list.

I’m just so tired of seeing [email protected] posts.

I believe I’ve seen that Lemmy has a bot account flag for repost bots like b0t, it would great if you could filter all accounts flagged as bots too.

It would be practical, if taking posts button would being you to the top if you already scrolled some. If you’re on top, then it could open side menu as till now. This would be easier for refreshing the feed.

Thank you for Avelon!

Requesting an option to show the submitting user (submitter) in the Feed views, especially the Compact Post view.

I got used to this feature back in the Apollo days. Seeing the submitter gives more info on whether to open/view a post (i.e. is the poster a known bot? known troll? known spammer? have they posted previous un- or likeable content?)

Thank you for your consideration!

When scrolling down the normal view, some text is in gray and not white, so it’s hard to read. So it would be nice if we were able to change the text color 

Could a refresh button be added to top nav bar? I know it’s in the ellipse menu, but it would save a step. Maybe a pro option?

Also how about ability to hide a post.

Sometimes I click a comment or swipe in from the right to collapse it, I want to reopen but it is very difficult to click on only the collapsed comment and not the commenter’s name.

Would it be possible to make swipe from the right to …uncollapse (expand?) the comment again. It’s one of those little things that would really improve the flow of reading through comments.

On a completely unrelated note, the saved draft for posts is very helpful. I would normally have to cut the text, go back to whatever, and then paste it back.

Hi!

We all try to make the lemmy fediverse active by posting interesting content! It's currently painful to share a picture I just took. I would love to share it easily.

Currently :

• I take a picture
• I select "share..." in the iOS menu
• I send it to myself as an email to resize it (otherwise it will be rejected because it's too heavy)
• I save the picture in my photos
• I launch a lemmy app
• I go to the right community
• I create a new post
• I browse the photo library to get the picture

What I would love :

• I take a picture
• I select "share..." in the iOS menu, I find a lemmy app
• I am ready to select the community
• (The lemmy app resizes the picture for me)

I know that it is not an easy feature to implement. However, the lemmy fediverse would gain activity from it.

Also : it's less painful, but sharing an URL directly from the browser would also be a must.

The touch top (by WiFi icon, battery, etc) automatically scrolls to the top is the most awful iOS feature. It should have been behind a setting in iOS, but here we are. Is it possible to move it behind a setting in the app?

Thank you!

Would love to see some mod tools added to the app. Happy to help test and provide feedback on them if needed.

Wish I could zoom in more on this image, ideally till it fits the full width of the screen, for this particular image.

I know this has been requested before but I don’t see another way to do this. It would be nice to press the Pists button and be taken to the top. Is there another way to accomplish this without tapping the top?

Btw I bought Avelon pro because this has beat out all the other apps. Thanks to the devs for all the amazing work.

Any chance of adding a toggle to hide the markdown editor? I never use it and accidentally keep hitting it, small phone with fat fingers

Would it be possible to add an option to move the upvote/downvote area to the left side? It would be great for those that are left handed vs right handed.

We already have the ability to move the thumbnails to the left or right side, which is great and would love to see an option like this make its way in too. If it’s not possible no worries but I figured it can’t hurt to ask, thank you!

Currently videos don’t stop playing after you scroll and if they have sound you have to go back and turn it off

This is a screenshot from Narwhal 2 (one of the last still active Reddit apps), and for context the layout is a lot more consistent. What I mean specifically is the community heading title is always on the far left indent, and it’s always color coded for easier readability. Also for consistency the upvote/downvote numbers are always on the far right indent. My eyes always know where these two things are in that regard. On Avelon the upvote numbers after the community title so the numbers/the button to upvote them aren’t always in the right place. This is a small nitpick to be sure, but as a graphic designer for consistency it would be great to keep things in places they should always be. If you have any further questions, I’m happy to expand and explain my reasonings. Also thank you so so much for making a wonderful app.

I post a lot of things that may need an NSFW tag and that’s not currently possible.
