Feature Request: Usage Warning Timer

darklightxi Now • 100%

Thanks for the feature request - as others have mentioned, a workaround for this is to use your OS to limit app usage if your OS supports this. Also, it would be helpful if you could create a new feature request on GitHub so that we can track this easier. Thanks!

Crosspost feature doesn't show which post was the original one

darklightxi Now • 100%

Just wanted to chime in here! I think the implementation of cross-posts is up for interpretation (and can definitely be changed if one is preferred over the other). Generally speaking, there are two types of implementations:

Cross-posts only copy over the title and link of the original post

This is what Thunder currently does, unless it's a text-only post (in which case, it copies over the text content of the original post since that's the only relevant part of the post)
The idea here is that we typically want to change the contents of the cross-post to be relevant to the community that we post to.

Cross-posts copy all content of the original post (title, link, body)

This is what Lemmy UI does, but it injects "crossposted from" into the body of the post
This can be useful if you want to post the same post across multiple-communities with the same body

From this discussion, I do think that it could be valuable to add an easier way to inject the original body of a post into a cross-post. If you would like this to be a feature, please create a new feature request on GitHub!

A side note on cross-posts:

I believe that Lemmy considers any posts with the same link as a cross-post. There's no distinction (from the API) on which post was the "original" post, or whether a post was crossposted "from a community" vs "to a community". This is also the reason why there is additional metadata for each "cross-post" in Thunder. The additional metadata allows you to figure out when a given post was created to find the "original" post.

If you're curious about specific implementation detail, @micahmo@programming.dev might be able to answer them!

[Bug] Thunder can't display the image in this comment, but it loads fine in the web UI.

darklightxi Now • 100%

Thanks for the report, this is definitely a weird one. I've created a PR with a fix for this issue here: https://github.com/thunder-app/thunder/pull/1572!

For some additional context: Thunder automatically performs encoding on URLs. However, in this specific scenario, the URL was partially encoded (the brackets were encoded, but the non-ASCII characters were left behind). This partial encoding caused Thunder to incorrectly encode the already encoded brackets (%28 and %29)

[Bug]? Can't post anything when using tablet

darklightxi Now • 100%

Hey! Sorry for the delay in response. It would be helpful if you could create a new GitHub issue on this so that we can track it better.

This happens since about three or four Thunder updates have passed. Before that it worked fine.

Have you tried clearing app data/cache for Thunder? That might help "reset" things and might resolve the issues you're facing.

Notifications broken?

darklightxi Now • 100%

Hey! Thanks for reporting this and sorry for the delay in response.

Unfortunately, its quite difficult to implement local-only notifications because of how restricitve Android is with regards to background tasks. The notifications feature is heavily dependent on the specific OS version that you have (different manufacturers do different things to help with power saving, but as a result, breaks/restricts background tasks from running)

The only thing I can suggest is to turn off battery optimizations for Thunder. After that, disable and re-enable notifications in the settings. If you go to Settings -> Debug, you should also see an option to test out notifications to see if Thunder can trigger them.

If none of that works, please let me know (ideally on Matrix) and I can help troubleshoot further!

I know this was posted a while ago, but I do have an update on this issue. This bug was only affecting instances running on 0.19.4 and higher that had image proxying enabled (e.g., lemm.ee)

Fortunately, this issue should now be resolved with v0.5.0 of Thunder! If you're interested in the details, check out the following GitHub discussion: https://github.com/thunder-app/thunder/issues/1448

Just providing a quick update on this - v0.5.0 fixes one of the two issues mentioned in the markdown report (table alignment not being respected)

The other markdown issue is not yet released, but should be fairly easy to fix! (just need to take some time to make sure the fix doesn't break anything else). If all looks good there, then this fix will be released as part of a nightly build soon!

Alpha Release [v0.5.0]: Improved inbox, additional account settings, post hiding, and more!

Hey everyone, Thunder v0.5.0 is finally here! This release cycle took a quite a bit of time, but introduces a lot of new features, changes, and fixes which should make for a even better Thunder experience. If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to discuss it in the Thunder community or on GitHub. If you're enjoying Thunder and would like to show some support, star this project on GitHub! This helps gain visibility for the project and allows more contributors to help with the continued development of Thunder. If you'd like to show some appreciation, [here is a post with details on how to donate](https://github.com/thunder-app/thunder/issues/756) to the active contributors of Thunder. **Important:** Your feed settings (default feed type and sort) will now be based on your Lemmy account settings. The previous feed settings will now **ONLY** apply to guest accounts. As such, you may have to re-configure your default feed type and default sort type if you were previously using the in-app settings. Now onto the update notes. This update brings a few major features: 🎉 New Features * The inbox page has been completely re-written with an updated design to more closely align with Material 3 design guidelines. There's also been a number of fixes to support quick actions within the inbox page (e.g., voting, saving, etc). * Thunder now respects more of your Lemmy account settings **including your default feed/sort settings**. You can update your display name, bio, email, and much more in the new Account Settings page. You can also quickly switch between different accounts to modify your Lemmy settings across all your authenticated accounts. * Additional Lemmy 0.19.x features have been added to Thunder including the ability to hide posts, custom thumbnail support, site content warnings, and more. We are still continuously working on bringing Thunder up to feature-parity with Lemmy, so let us know what features you would like to see. * Custom user notes/labels are now available in Thunder! This will allow you to add any custom notes to a given user. You can add user labels from the settings page via **Settings -> User Labels**. Alternatively, you can add labels through the action sheets by long pressing on a given comment and selecting **User -> Add User Label**. ℹ General * The create/edit button for posts and comments have been moved to the markdown toolbar. This should _hopefully_ make it more accessible for one-handed use. * URL filtering has been added to keyword filters. Simply add a new keyword filter with a URL, and it should be hidden from view. * Link sharing has been improved to support additional media/external links. And much much more. I can't go through all the changes in the changelog, but for those who are curious, feel free to check out the full changelog below. We have a Matrix space if you would like to join in on discussions: https://matrix.to/#/#thunderapp:matrix.org --- **Additions** * Refactor inbox page by hjiangsu * Add additional account settings by hjiangsu * Add support for custom user labels by micahmo * Add support for hiding posts by micahmo * Add ability to create links to app settings by micahmo * Add account birthday indicator to users by micahmo * Add ability to import/export local app database by micahmo * Add post/comment language metadata by micahmo * Add community stats for community visibility/local subscribers by micahmo * Add ability to create block quote from selection when commenting by micahmo * Add ability to re-order user accounts by micahmo * Add ability to upload multiple images at a time for a post/comment by hjiangsu * Add support for site content warnings by micahmo * Add support for custom thumbnails in posts by micahmo * Add ability to sort inbox by ggichure * Add ability to view post as a different user by micahmo * [Experimental] Add debug setting to customize image dimension timeout value by hjiangsu * [Experimental] Add new experimental post page by hjiangsu **Changes** * Extend keyword filters to URLs by hjiangsu * Remove page scroll animation when switching between bottom navigation items by hjiangsu * Decrease layout jank originating from images within comments, and improve image error states by micahmo * Disable account switching when editing post/comment by micahmo * Defer loading image dimensions when opening image preview by micahmo * Improve link sharing for images/video URLs by micahmo * Show placeholder icon for posts without thumbnails by micahmo * Allow snackbars to be closed on action by micahmo * Immediately remove blocked users/communities from feed, disable ability to block self by micahmo * Use community/user display names globally by micahmo * Show community/user sort type on community/user headers by micahmo * Use user/community format styling to cross-posts by micahmo * Fallback to opening non-Lemmy instances in browser by micahmo * Improve feedback when subscribing/unsubscribing to community by hjiangsu * Move create/edit post button into markdown toolbar by micahmo * Move create/edit comment button into markdown toolbar by micahmo * Show voting when hidden scores are enabled by hjiangsu * Add option to navigate to user's instance from post actions by micahmo * Disable "Subscriptions" sort type option for guest accounts by micahmo * Remove images from push notifications, improve UnifiedPush logic by micahmo **Fixes** * Fix table column markdown alignment by hjiangsu * Fix mark post as read when previewing media on 0.19.4 by hjiangsu * Fix sidebar lag when subscribed to a large amount of communities by hjiangsu * Fix superscript/subscript parsing edge cases by micahmo * Fix image overflow when rendering inside a spoiler tag by micahmo * Fix issue where optimistic voting would not reflect upvotes/downvotes properly by micahmo * Fix post text preview showing raw markdown by hjiangsu * Fix snackbar positioning when opening/dismissing keyboard by micahmo * Fix labeling and minor semantics by micahmo * Fix text field spell check causing exception on ** text by hjiangsu * Fix minor typo in 'Change Password' page by wadamT * Fix semantics for link information by hjiangsu * Fix share text post by micahmo * Fix image proxy handling by hjiangsu * Fix for markdown toolbar not showing above system keyboard by hjiangsu * Fix dim read posts setting not being applied for card view by hjiangsu **Misc** * Fix macOS build errors by hjiangsu * Remove javaToolchain binaries by hjiangsu * Remove `push` package Android dependency by hjiangsu * Update PR template by hjiangsu * Update instances by github-actions * Update translations from Weblate by hjiangsu * Update Turkish localizations by mikropsoft * Migrate anonymous instances to database by micahmo * Minor under-the-hood feed related changes by hjiangsu * Improve parsing of video speed setting by micahmo * Move experimental push notifications under experimental flag by micahmo * Add more push notifications debugging by micahmo * Migrate draft storage to local database by micahmo **New Contributors** * wadamT made their first contribution

private/direct messages

darklightxi Now • 100%

Just wanted to chime in here - I also think having a chat-style widget would also be best for private messages but would be difficult to implement without some workarounds (mainly due to the limitations of the API as you mentioned)!

But then I discovered that there’s no API call to retrieve your sent messages

From what I can see in the API, there is a creatorId field that can be specified to grab chats for a given user. This could potentially work by passing in your own account id to retrieve your sent messages (although, this would likely return back your sent messages aggregated across all users so it wouldn't be ideal)

It would be a bit of a hack but we could call that API endpoint, and cache the results locally to be used in chats. This adds a layer of complexity since we would need to consider how to keep messages synced up (e.g., if a user edits a message elsewhere, it should be reflected here). There also doesn't seem to be a way to get a specific private message by id, so that also complicates the issue further 😅

Hey there! As others have mentioned, there is currently no way to reply to private messages in Thunder. However, I have heard this feature request a few times, so I'll try to increase its priority.

Reminder: users on instances upgrading to 0.19

Hey everyone, just a friendly reminder for those on instances that are either about to upgrade or have recently upgraded from version 0.18 to 0.19 (e.g., lemmy.world, lemmy.blahaj.zone, sh.itjust.works, etc.). After your instance updates to 0.19, please remember to re-authenticate (i.e., log out and log back in). This is because of some authentication changes made in 0.19 which invalidates the session. Thanks!
