I now live near a pine tree and don't know what to do with all of the pine cones. Decorations? Just burn them in a fire pit? Any ideas welcome.

I have been listening to the podcast Twenty Thousand Hertz, which picks a sound or music (eg music of Hans Zimmer) and the host recommended another podcast called Imaginary Worlds. I cannot get enough of it. The host picks a topic and usually has guests to discuss it (eg Terri Pratchett’s Discworld, or how Norse mythology permeates present day).

The show tickles my sense for philosophy by asking really open-ended and thought-provoking questions. And the host quite often has a books or movies that I would have never otherwise heard of, such as Octavia Butler- Lilith’s Brood (aka Xenogensis) and Dora Raymaker - Resonance; which explore the experiences of black and autistic authors, respectively, and how that shapes the stories they create.

Not many things prompt me to think outside of the box like this show. I just wanted to share, in case anyone else could enjoy it as much as I am.

It looks like it may be happening because I have commenters’ instances visible and larger text size selected. Not the worst thing, just minorly inconvenient.

I am still thoroughly enjoying the app and use it pretty frequently. @gromdroid I hope you get the chance to continue refining it as time and life permits. Thanks again for your efforts.

If I close the app for a few minutes and then reopen it, I’ll usually swipe down to refresh the post I was on, and the app crashes.

I first just want to say thanks again for putting the time and effort that goes into making Lemma. It’s still my main Lemmy app.

I just noticed after making a post a few minutes ago that the post in-app shows a much old timer. For example, I posted about 7 minutes ago (which shows on the browser) but Lemma shows 6h. The post prior to that one showed something like 12h when I first posted it. Is that maybe referencing when the server synced or how ever that works between instances? Those were both posts to instances other than my home one.

Edit: I tried it on the same instance has my home instance and similarly got 6h ago

It looks like my post and comment scores read 0 after the Lemmy 0.19 on my instance (lemm.ee). I’ve had upvotes since the update and the comment and post scores still read 0 now. The same thing is showing on another app as well. Is this expected or is anyone else experiencing this?

edit: Now that I added another profile and switched back to my original profile, it loads the scores of the original but not the second profile.

Things I Like:

• The new icon and color options are cool!

• Multi-communities!

• Still love the sepia theme and comment cascade color options.

• The gif scrubber is always super helpful, and it feels a bit more tuned now and not so sensitive (some short gifs before were really touchy to scrub).

• Hide Read button on Feed.

• I’m not sure if it was present before, but the Mod, Admin, Dev tags are very nice.

• Switching icon left/right/none and thumbnail size options for Compact View.

• The Tap to Collapse toggle can be set to only comments. I like this because I never really need to close a post and accidentally close it trying to click a link in the post.

• The Lemma scroll distance was a fun little finding.

Things that didn’t work:

• I could not logout of my account. I added a second account from another instance (I didn’t see a toggle to switch between, I think it just logged in “overtop” of my first account). I was able to remove the second account, but when I tried to logout of the original account, the Logout button didn’t log me out. [cue Sword Art Online - “Guys…there is no…Logout button…”]

• Directly clicking the link/image from the Feed sometimes only marks it as read and does not actually open the post or link/media.

• I think the No Subscribed in All option resulted in not loading my Subscribed posts at all. All and Local worked, but Subscribed only loaded when I disabled the No Subscribed in All toggle.

• Switching to a sort other than the default for the Feed switches right back to the selected default sort.

Things to maybe change:

• Please please add text size options, at least for comments and posts’ text.

• Disable Hide the Scroll Bars while in the menus. Sometimes I need to pull down quite a bit to get them back to exit the menus.

• With Show Username at Top disabled for posts, they disappear from comments as well.

• The Search is generally very nice and actually finds things I’m looking for. I think the filters could be a bit more clear though. If possible, maybe add No NSFW as a filter; because even with it de-selected, there are NSFW results that appear.

Thanks again for all of the work that goes into this. It always amazing me what people like you can accomplish to share ideas and experiences with each other. Or cat memes or whatever ya know. This update makes it by far one of my favorites to use.

After first trying Mlem, Memmy was my main Lemmy app for a good while, until I have been trying out some other ones. Coming back to using Memmy, I am pretty happy how well-rounded it is.

For me, the most important things are functionality and readability. The customization and font options are very nice. I especially like having a theme like the Golden Hour that is easier on the eyes, and still get to pick a theme color! With the red, it gives me a chocolate factory vibe that I enjoy.

The automatic reader mode for links is great for minimizing distractions on links, ability for switching feed link icons to the right is nice for being a lefty phone user, and the icon options are nice to have. The actual communities’ pages having the banner makes it feel more complete. The markdown editor seems well done and the Jump button is great for reading efficiently. The concise UI is very pleasant. And most importantly, the function of the things that are implemented are seemingly all working and are pretty snappy.

Having the post click first before the going directly to the link is actually really nice, because half of the time I try to click a post on other apps and end up clicking a link to somewhere. Also, the saving of a post draft is nice, although I wish there would be some pop up message or small banner that would say so.

Some things that could be improved: the favorite icon on the left list of communities does not seem to work, the Moderates feed does not load (but is a great idea), adding a Mark above as read button for the Feed would be very welcomed, the read messages do not appear in the Inbox, and lastly I tried to post this using the app and it only blinked and did not post.

All of that said, I’m really happy about the balance of features and functionality and will stick with Memmy for a good bit.

Thanks for all of the work on the app. I like how snappy and clean it is. I’m also big on the customization options, so I love the sepia color theme option and comment cascade options. I’d love to have a few icon options whenever possible. The markdown editor is also pretty welcomed. The search option is pretty nice too.

While making this post, it looks like the text box runs off to the right, and the markdown editor blocks the the visible text box from moving appropriately. The post also was not able to be posted via this app.

Some amazing additions I’d like to request are the default feed option (ie Home/Subscribed), groups/multi communities, and favorite communities. Also, text size options and a “Mark above as read” button (sometimes I scroll past and haven’t read it but still want to hide it).

Thanks again for creating something nice.

edit: it looks like the multi-group is an option but the button doesn’t currently lead anywhere. Also, the smart search feature seems to be one of the best for finding new communities. I put myself in the place of a new user and tried to search for communities on a few other apps; it’s surprisingly difficult to find active communities. I also just noticed the bars hiding for full-screen scrolling, which I’m a big fan of.
