in reply to Fedilab Apps • • •Video content takes extra time and steps to load, and it takes over the whole screen. The controls for video end up in the same place as my Android navigation buttons at the bottom of the screen.
Don't get me wrong: I do NOT want auto-playing video, but I do wish it was a smoother, more integrated experience.

What do you mean by parsing link previews?
vantiss
in reply to Fedilab Apps • • •the other reply explained the link preview thing
as for not opening in the app, if I link to the other reply like this:
mastodon.zaclys.com/@ellouis/1…
and tap it after I send the toot, it opens in my browser

in reply to Fedilab Apps • • •Media viewers need some polish.
The video player doesn't show the playback time bar for long enough to actually do anything with it. I'd rather it just be a toggle on/off when you touch. Right now it appears for about half a second and goes away.
Also, it is very hard to pinch zoom images, they will normally just move around when you try to zoom.

in reply to Fedilab Apps • • •oh i thought of another couple things:
- I'd really love to have mastodon links in other apps open in fedilab! I realize that could be technically difficult, but if there's a way to do it I'd appreciate it a whole lot
- I wish I could have "search" not default to tags unless I use #. accounts is much more helpful as a default, and then search for message if it's a message link?

Marek Bachmann
in reply to Fedilab Apps • • •In other words: I just do not want to click on the message to see to whom it was a reply, but I want to see it root post directly with the reply beneath. 😀
Fedilab Apps
in reply to Marek Bachmann • • •Yes, but as I said, it's a limitation of the API.
The api only returns the reply id and not the reply object.
Such feature cannot be built as for each reply message, the app will have to fetch the message and display it. That would create excessive amount of calls with also jumps when inserted asynchronously.
@marek@kassel.social
Marek Bachmann
in reply to Fedilab Apps • • •Okay, thank you for clarification. I will point @Friendica Developers to this discussion:

@developers @marek@kassel.social
Marek Bachmann
in reply to Marek Bachmann • • •Here, let me show you what I mean:
This is an exampled of a post what I call "text from unknown users and not knowing the context"
When I click on the message, things start to make sense:
Now I see that this person just replied to that root post, and then AND ONLY THEN, the message makes sense to me. 😀
Fedilab Apps
in reply to Marek Bachmann • • •Yes, it could be done when api will return a "in_reply_message" (object) instead of a "in_reply_id" (String).

in reply to Fedilab Apps • • •Displaying and interacting with images. Zooming & scrolling around an image has an unusual user model and fails easily. Just compare the experience with Tusky or even the official app. I like most everything about Fedilab except for images.
Second thing is it's slow to populate image previews. Sometimes have to touch the item to have it show. Again, Tusky & official app always has the previews in place and scrolls smoothly.

Ideally, app would set up a background service to wake up periodically and pull new stuff automatically, so everything is there as soon as I open it. That would be wonderful.
It could also finally make the unread count accurate, and also eliminate the issues with timeline positioning on load. So: win-win-win. 😀
Jakub Niżniowski
in reply to Fedilab Apps • • •I guess that "Popular" timeline is hidden in the side menu and I can't bring it to the bottom panel (instead of something else I don't use).
Apart from that, I am still learning and exploring, and I feel satisfied!
Fedilab Apps
in reply to Jakub Niżniowski • • •Randomatic :python: :linux:
in reply to Fedilab Apps • • •It would be good to have a clear indication when there is a gap between Home timeline posts (caused by the Mastodon default limit of 400).
Also an indicator when a "Fetch more" is in progress rather than having the posts before & after appear to be consecutive.

in reply to Fedilab Apps • • •The use of a large font, like load more button, editing profile, filter notifications.
In light theme there are two ugly options for colors. The black is not really black and the white is not white enough.
Fedilab has so many options that I love, fast updates, and a friendly developer😊, that with a smoother UI it is the best app.

That's the error message displayed anytime you try to add a Twitter via Nitter timeline. It's been broken for quite a long while. I know we're supposed to hate Twitter, but if it worked here I could hate them by avoiding their ads and tracking!

Instead of this ID, attaching the whole object message would avoid the extra call from client side to get the message.

in reply to brbunek • •Yea, this behavior sucks big time. Especially with image posts when you want to see the context of the toot instead of image
@Fedilab Apps Could you guys consider changing the behavior? I'd say only profile picture should bring up the profile - other zones should lead to toot (this includes name of toot author too)
Fedilab Apps
in reply to Schmaker • • •Only tap to the top (pp and username) brings to original poster profile.
Taping message content should not.

Ýes, but when you have toot only with single image (no text) or hyperlink, it's ridiculously hard to hit area, that takes you to the toot instead of profile.
I really do think it's only profile picture, what should bring you to user profile instead of toot context.
