I posted this as a comment in a separate thread a couple of days ago, but am not sure if you ever saw it so I'm pasting it here. Keep up the great work!
Been using it yesterday and today. So far no crashes or crazy bugs. I like it a lot! I especially like the gestures, makes me feel right at home after using apollo.
Some random thoughts/questions:
I couldn’t figure out how to contact you through the app, or even what your lemmy username was. Not sure if that is intentional, but if not maybe add a note in settings? And if you add a tip jar, maybe some of us will use it!
Is there a way to have more than one account and switch between them, as can be done in most reddit apps and also MLem?
I keep tapping the upvote arrow next to the count thinking it will add an upvote, which is how this behaves in Apollo. But instead it opens the post.
Hopefully someday you’ll be able to have search and messages? I was looking at differences between Memmy and Apollo and realized this was a big one.
Would also love to have info about my login. Pretty much I want the same 5 buttons across the bottom that Apollo had. I hate change!
Another someday item is that I love the way Apollo handles subreddit subscriptions (when you hit the “posts” button) and am hoping that someday we’ll have that behavior when you hit the feed button (e.g., see a list of all subscribed communities/magazines, plus all posts, local posts, and maybe someday the equivalent of multireddits if we ever get that).
Edit: for some reason bullet points didn’t bullet point.
Loving the app and updates!
If I tap profile, then subscriptions, then any community I'm subscribed to, I can see the posts as normal but nothing at all happens when I tap on them.
Posts open normally from the feed.
Also, I am typing this from the browser as there doesn't seem to be a way to create a new post in memmy!
There are a bunch of niche communities from reddit I miss. I wouldn't mind starting some of them, but I can't be spending hours a day dealing with petty bullshit and weird tech stuff.
I almost exclusively used reddit from my phone, and I expect that whether I settle on Lemmy or Kbin (I have accounts on both, trying to figure out if there is a meaningful difference), I will also be mostly mobile-based, if that is helpful.
I never modded a subreddit, so I have no basis for comparison of workload.
Some of the subreddits I miss are /r/geology, /r/geologygifs, /r/phish, /r/kgatlw, /r/boston, /r/baseball, /r/redsox, /r/mapporn, /r/manholeporn, /r/printmaking, and /r/burningman.
So if I start some communities (or magazines, I guess?) over here, how much work am I signing myself up for? Like, if I signed myself up to start 4-5 of these in the hopes that they would become functional communities, would I hate myself in a year?
