Gk is rewriting the entire app rn. I unfortunately don’t have the time to help with it atm or it would be much faster. But be a little patient and we will eventually have it back to full functionality.

Everything will be returning eventually. It’s a massive refactor

If you want a stable version i recommend the App Store version, not test flight

Lesson to users: don't act all entitled when you're using a FOSS app developed in people's free time :) We work on what we want to work on, one of those things were themes. Neither of us use the hide seen posts feature so thats why it doesn't get much attention. Feel free to learn React Native and contribute a fix though, I'm sure you'll get around to that!

Nah, the image handling is just very difficult. We’re using an animation library to handle the image gestures. It’s insane that there is no good image handling library for React Native. Boggles my mind how many basic things seem to be missing in the RN ecosystem that any app would need.

As others have said, you should check out Avelon. It’s my favorite Lemmy app after ours

It’s driving me nuts too. We haven’t been able to figure it out yet, we seriously have no idea. Trust me it’s the number one issue i have as well. Stuff like that is part of the motivation for a rewrite.

Sorry neither of us have looked at it, haven’t been in the habit of checking recently. I made a note to review it tomorrow

Easier said than done 🥲

Mostly the stuff with lemmy.world banning the piracy community. (FWIW I think they have every right to ban whatever community they want on their server)

That would be pretty easy to implement actually. But at least for comments we wanted it to be a short press like in Apollo. I use it all the time that way and would rather not have to long press. I think with some tweaking it can be improved, unfortunately we both just aren't react native experts so we're learning as we go.
