If this is with the user vote total setting, you can reset the vote count by tapping on a username(including your own), then tapping on the three dots in the top right of the screen, and then "Reset Vote Total."

    If you want to join, it's pretty simple. On the Play Store page for the app, if you scroll down, there should be a section about joining the beta. Nowadays I think it's fairly stable and you shouldn't run into many issues. But it will eventually be rolled out in the stable version so you could just wait.

    The dev released v1.0.475 and the changelog does mention that the feed now refreshes when you return to the app. Along with a few other improvements, I think the issue you raised should be addressed. I've been waiting for this change as well. I think it is a beta release though so you do need to become a beta-tester to get the update.

    For article posts that have a thumbnail, sometimes I just want to view the thumbnail. With the article preview option enabled, I would have to tap into the post and then tap and hold on the thumbnail there. I can't just use the regular tap and hold to preview from the feed because of the article preview feature, which I like enabled.

    If the trigger for the feature was changed to tap and hold on the post title instead of the thumbnail, I can use the preview gesture to view an article or thumbnail from the feed and tap and hold on the title to open reader preview of the article.

    Just an idea, and if nothing changes, I can just go into the post to preview article thumbnails.

    With article preview enabled, if you want to preview an article thumbnail from the feed, you have to tap into the post and then use the preview gesture there. Perhaps the article preview function can be activated with the title instead? This would also make the preview gesture more consistent across post types with a thumbnail.

    Personally, every now and then I have to tap into a post and I'm used doing it from the feed. Of course, if changed, people used to the current flow may be annoyed and prefer the thumbnail. I'm guessing people that prefer card view would prefer the image activation as well.

     

    Bug Report

    Describe the issue: Whenever I tap on the thumbnail for this post, it takes about 3 for the image to fully render and not be blurry. It seems like the image is not loading from cache and is redownloaded each time I tap on the thumbnail because it then takes another 3 seconds to render. The cache shows the image is less than a MB so I don't think it's the local webp conversion that's taking 3s. I think slrpnk.net has some server issues at the moment as it's not a noticeable issue with images hosted on other instances. But it may highlight a different Connect issue.

    EDIT: And of course, right after the post, it's not doing the rendering issue anymore. I'll try to find another example and figure put the conditions for this.

    EDIT2: Um, edits are not being reflected again? I made an edit and submitted it but after that was done, the post did not update with the edit in it. Had to manually refresh to see the update.

    EDIT3: Okay, so if that first post does not exhibit the issue, any posts from a community on slrpnk.net, such as their meme one, can provide another sample. But it may depend on where you are and when you try this; maybe your proximity is no affected or the instance has resolved the issue by then.

    I realized some people may have reader mode working, so the typical preview gesture is preferred for them because accessing the article through reader mode is just a tap away.

    In my case, I don't have reader mode on because this also requires links to open in a custom tab or the internal browser. But because both will show ads, despite uBlock Origin, I stick to the external browser. And why I made the original post/suggestion. If extensions would work with the custom tab option, then I would use reader mode.

    I think the article preview would be more useful, at least to me, if it was inline with the comment preview and remained on-screen with a long tap. Reading and scrolling while having to hold the long tap is cumbersome. Granted, it's a preview feature, but I think it's a worthwhile feature to be able to easily read an article straight from a feed and then go back to the feed. Which is why I also like the comment preview.

    For those reading and wondering about the mentioned features, it was introduced in v1.471, which is a beta so you would need to join that to use it.

    EDIT: Not sure why but this post only shows a sliver of the article for the preview. Loads fine in reader mode and other article previews seem to load up the full article.

    I've seen the issue of notifications about a previous post from a couple of updated back but haven't noticed it recently. Although I currently don't have any alerts set and I think it's an issue with alerts for communities. But for me, If memory serves, when I made a new post, shortly afterwards, I would get a notification for the post I made previously.

    EDIT: It's any new post; not just my own. There was just a new post in this comm and I got a notification for the previous post instead.

    I think the error code was 400? Anyways, it's fixed now. Came up at the bottom and the post still loaded up when you tapped on the inbox message so it wasn't that bad. I saw a report for another app about a similar problem and wondered if we were affected.

    The Open option for comments seem to always open using the internal browser but I have it set to the external browser.

    When viewing a post with crossposts and changing the sort method, it's only applied to the top post and not the crossposts.

    Saved comments don't have an overflow menu. And for me, I can't assign them to a folder because long-tapping on the comment, what I'd normally use to show the context menu, will load up the post for the comment.

    Saved folders and its content can be deleted with a selection without confirmation. On a mobile app, I think a confirmation for this option would be useful as a mistap can delete a number of bookmarks.

    I notice upvoted(probably down as well) comments don't seem to update the vote count until the app is reopened. So you could upvote a comment, come back hours later, see the comments and updated vote count on other comments but see the same vote count on the interacted one.

    An error message comes up when viewing a Piefed inbox message. At least for read messages for post reply.

    That's weird, it seemed like every video but I just tried one and it worked. This one is exhibiting the problem though. Will see if I van find a pattern.

    EDIT: Videos as part of a gallery seems to be the common link? Another example.

    **EDIT2: **So I added posts to a folder but how do I access the folder? I'm not spotting it on the Saved page.

    Bug Report

    Describe the issue: Video playback seems to be broken and I noticed it starting in 463. The video tries to load but doesn't. It works fine in the browser.

    Also, how do you add saved posts to folders? There's a + button now but that creates a post. Context menu for the posts and the page doesn't seem to have the option either.

    Bug Report

    Describe the issue: Updated to v457 and the thumbnails on feeds like All are now rather compressed. It's not an issue on card view and switching to my Piefed account, it's also not an issue there.

    EDIT: Interesting, it seems to be an issue with just Lemmy.ca? Logged into my .world account and it was fine.

    EDIT2: Screenshot. Clear cache didn't resolve it either.

    If you up/downvote a post and then change your mind, the count is reflected but the up/downvote remains rather than being reset to show no action taken. This was the case previously so some recent change introduced this.

    I'll piggyback another one. If a link on a post is long, perhaps a shorter character display limit should be added. Example.

     

    Bug Report

    Describe the issue: If I revisit a post, that has comments, a load more comments button appears and tapping on it doesn't seem to do anything.

    Also, the dates for the last few changelogs are all the same. And I did notice the support the dev button was removed. Hopefully you won the lottery recently, hence the removal.

    I noticed an account had a note with an asterisk on it. The note applies to this account as well so I thought if I edited the note and saved it with the same thing that it would get rid of the asterisk for that account. It did not.

    I think in this situation, it should make a new note for that account; while leaving the asterisk on other accounts from other instances; so there would be two accounts from two instances with the note and asterisks for the rest.

     

    Bug Report

    Describe the issue: I was viewing All and went into a post and noticed all the comments had a Show comment button on all of them. Each also mentioned it was due to a block on the corresponding commenter's instance but that's not true in this case; it's due to the instance of the community that was blocked. I have the option to block comments turned off so even if I block the instances, the comments should be unhidden. So there's two issues with this one.


    EDIT: Screenshot of the post on All; it's the bookmarked one. To clarify, I don't block blahaj.zone because I'm a bigot, you can go through my voting history and see I'm clearly left-wing. I just don't relate to a chunk of the posts and comms so it's blocked.

    Anyways, if I had to guess I think the issue is sometimes the app shows you a cached All page that seems to ignore the instance blocks. Leaving the app open for at least an hour and then coning back to it may also be related to the cause of this; if the block seems to be adhered to at a glance.
