Hi, past couple days have seen a influx of new users so welcome everybody! This release is aimed at improving customization options and some requested improvements. The secondary buttons on post cards can now be customized, added a ‘Hide above’ option which will hide all posts above the selected post, and the upvote colour can now be customized (also applies to the new comment counter and swipe action background on upvote tiles).
Changes
- Upvote colour can now be customized
- Fixed a bug with the subscribe button not being in the correct state within About Community
- & symbol now renders correctly on posts and comments
- global setting moved up within the Settings page to make it more obvious
- filter terms now accept regex (should start and end with a “/” eg /foo/)
- spoiler tags should now work for multi-line spoilers
- Added a toggle to display comment debug information (shows id, children count, hot rank, upvotes, downvotes - probably only useful for debugging).
- Fixed an issue where ‘View More’ is showing when it shouldn’t be
What would you like to see next: Tablet UI or more granular theme customizations?

I’m amazed how light weight this app is. The quality is here, it’s basic and it doesn’t take huge space.
A well done app!
I was thinking about being able to comment with one of the other logged account.
While browsing with one of my multiple accounts, I comment and can choose to post with another one.
I don’t know how this is possible and if I was clear.
@kuro thank you so much for making such a great app!
Allowing us to customize the comments more would be nice. Like I don’t want the top level comment to collapse when clicked, just its replies. Also it would be nice if the left padding on the comments was reducible and the colour bar could be made thicker.
I hate to sound like I’m begging for features and don’t want to do a whole separate post, but is there any chance for an “auto-hide child comments” option in the future that collapses replies to top level comments until opened by the user?
It’s the only feature I really miss from RiF and RES.Other than that everything seems to be working great and this is my favorite Lemmy app so keep up the great work!
I’ll see what I can do :)
Tablet UI please with columns!
Awesome app. Reminds me most of baconreader
Not sure where to raise this but I’m getting a bug where posts will toggle between read and unread when opening comments from list mode
Love your app, only thing that bugs me is the inanity to have more than one account configured. Try to add a second and you can’t go back to the first without signing out of everything and starting over.
Can you explain further? I’m not the dev or affiliated, but I have two accounts on different instances signed in, and I can toggle between them without issue. I just recently also got settings to configure per account rather than app wide. I might be able to help?
A few feature ideas if you done mins considering:
-
A 10s pop up after a post is hidden to unhide it
-
A way to see all hidden posts to find something later if needed
-
Button to hide all posts that are above the post currently on screen
These were all killer features in sync for Reddit, not sure if the Lenny version has it but it’s very useful. Thanks!

Is there a way to edit your profile from within Connect? Like updating display name and bio, or uploading a new avatar or banner? I feel like there’s been a handful of things I didn’t think Connect could do, but found out later that I was just overlooking it or didn’t recognize it in the settings.
Another random question - the area in the pop out panel on the left where your username/avatar is displayed at the top (it’s blue for me). Should that be showing my user banner? If not, can that be a thing?
Maybe I have not figured it out, but can I not have it show only feeds from my subscribed communities? Basically I can select all and see everything or local and it is just my instance. I want to see a random selection just from the communities I subscribe to based on top best, day, month etc.
Also maybe a ignore list. Ie. I put cat in said list in Reddit and very few cat videos came thru.
That’s what the “Frontpage” is
Ah I thought that was kind of a Lemmy front page of all posts. Rather dumb of me.
Thanks. Now I don’t have to filter out memes all day.
is there a way to suggest ideas in-app?
I’m glad to see the toast notification added to undo hidden posts and it would be nice if the option was extended to the Hide Above feature as well. I accidentally tapped it and a bunch of posts were hidden as a result.
Any way we can add the lemiverse.net search function into the app? I know how to find communities, but idk if there’s a way to search for instants? I’ve also posted about it: https://lemmy.world/post/2737749 but I think posting here would also get more traction (also, I can’t be the only one haha).

Issue I’m having is Connect not being able to render tables.
Hi, this should now be fixed on beta 129 (or if not on beta I’m hoping to release tomorrow).
Excellent news! We removed the images for this week as a precaution.
Strangely, this update cuts down the last letter of startrek.website’s instance domain name, leaving it like “startrek.websit” and making the instance and its communities unreachable.
this is the only example I’ve found where it does this, pretty weird.
Hi, thanks for the feedback and I’m pushing a hotfix for this issue now.
Edit: hotfix is live, 1.0.131. Thank you for raising the issue!
❤️
