Can anyone try going to [email protected] and let me know if it works? It won't load for me and I tried on an account on that instance and still nothing.
Edit: maybe it's a fluke, or maybe it's a Samsung thing somehow?

wrong image loading in comment with multiple embedded images
So I have a bottle similar to this one, and I wish for a small snack container that opens in a similar way. [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/566427a2-95b9-4ebc-89d5-d6c3439d30f9.jpeg] I want something that opens with a button push, revealing an opening wide enough to dump loose granola, mixed nuts,...
Sync users, in my comment linked above when you tap the second image does it pull up the right one? For me it's about 50/50 whether it will.
This is a bug I noticed a while ago but didn't have any reference examples until now.

Noticed a minor bug this morning when swiping a post closed where there is only a black screen in the background in place of the feed.
The feed loads immediately as expected when the post is fully closed, making this only a minor issue.
Notably, my phone updated to Android 14 just last night, so I was not sure if there was something weird with the OS update impacting the app, but it persists through a force close and clearing cache.

"You have hidden all the posts on page N". I get this a lot when scrolling, but it's definitely not true.

It would be good to display whatever the real error is instead of this erroneous message.
I don't even use filters except for a very short list of user filters from before the block API was implemented in Sync. I do, however have a very large list of blocked communities on the server, but I don't see why the Lemmy API would generate an empty page of posts due to my server-side blocks. Is it not smart enough to generate a page of posts after excluding my blocked communities? I've written a lot of paged database queries with filters, and implementing blocks after performing the query would be pretty dumb.

Sync keeps crashing if sorring inbox to "unread messages" when there are no unread messages.
Just trying to check "unread messages" despite no notifications indicating there are some, just to refresh the inbox and make sure there's nothing in limbo before notifications appear (not sure how the technicalities work).
If there are no new messages the app crashes. Can make it crash multiple times in a row. Works fine if there is a notification and unread messages present.

When I click restore purchases in Sync I just get an "Error validating" toast.
Scenario (steps to reproduce)
- Unsure....use a Pixel XL? Use Android 10?
- Click "Restore purchases" on any screen that allows it like the setup screen, or from the settings menu.

"Error validating" toast

Comment readability at unreasonable depth

Due to a bug with the Piped link bot, I ended up finding an incredibly long chain of replies. The app seems to try and keep the colour bar intact at the demise of the comment, I'd suggest only displaying the last n parent comments as a hopefully relatively simple fix. Not a priority, as how often do comment chains go 30+ replies deep
There is no option to edit posts which are a month old, but the website still lets me edit them.
Update
Someone said you can't edit any post containing an image, and my oldest post has an image. Might not have to do with age at all.
I would edit my title to reflect this but.... Β―\\\(γ)\/Β―
Just playing, Lj, keep up the good work!
-----
I can still edit newer posts with Sync, but not my oldest one. I've only made three posts, so I don't have much data. For all I know, the bug is you can't edit your single oldest post. But I do know that Reddit would archive posts after a while, and maybe this behavior is a throwback from the Reddit version.
