  • [BETA] Connect 1.0.96 Released

    Jump

  • Updated and volume buttons are back to controlling volume as they should be! Tested on the homepage and working fine. I tested in a thread with a ton of comments as well and at first the volume buttons were navigating between comments as they had been so I decided to check the settings where I was able to disable this setting (and then the settings auto-saved so that is also working!). I personally hadn't noticed the issue in the last fix for comment creation not always including the post but I'll keep an eye out in case it crops up in this version of the app. Thanks @kuro_neko@lemmy.ca for the quick fixes!

  • How many Lemmy users are non-technical background?

    Jump

  • I would certainly characterize myself as a tech-enthusiast rather than from a technical background. I have a Chemistry degree and work in a tangentially related field (Brewing industry) though mainly on the sales/retail side rather than production. I don't code but it's certainly something I am interested in. I've set up a Pi-hole on my home network and have a small Plex-Server streaming downloaded media (as I try in vain to disentangle myself from the myriad of streaming services that exist).

  • Fran Drescher On Bob Iger: He Says “We’re Unrealistic When He’s Making $78,000 a Day”

    Jump

  • Yeah from the article it seems the "senator" is a reference to Bernie Sanders.

    A more accurate title would read as follows:

    Fran Drescher the SAG-AFTRA president and Bernie Sanders the "fiery Senator" discuss 'fight against corporate greed' and Bob Iger amid actors' and writers' strikes.

  • [REVIEW] Slint - Spiderland

    Jump

  • I guess underrated was the wrong choice of words. It certainly is less well known than it deserves. Slint only had 2 records and in fact had broken up before this album was actually released so the record label basically just gave up on promoting it. It certainly was an influential album and is now getting the praise it deserves (32 years after it was originally released).

  • [REVIEW] Slint - Spiderland

    Jump

  • One of my favorite underrated albums!

  • What are your favorite games to bring when traveling

    Jump

  • Hive is a great travel game! It's small (so therefore easy to transport) and just requires any flat surface to play on. It's a turn based game where your objective is to place tiles (which have different bugs on them) to surround your opponents Queen whilst also defending your own Queen from being surrounded. It has a surprisingly deep level of strategy involved for such a simple game.

  • [OC] my copy of Orange Juice's Falling and Laughing, one of the rarest and most sought after indie records with flexi and postcard. Only 934 were made, with only 200 having the postcard.

    Jump

  • That's a cool piece of musical history! You should crosspost this to !vinyl@sopuli.xyz and !vinyl@lemmy.ml. Both communities would find it interesting and just need more posts in general.

  • Slay the Spire Fanart - The Ironclad WIP I

    Jump

  • volume buttons no longer work with newest update

    Jump

  • It's easier to notice in a thread with more comments, but it seems that using the up/down volume keys is "scrolling" the active comment and bringing up the comment navigation bar for the active comment.

  • Back button not responding

    Jump

  • Latest update seems to have fixed it!

  • Back button not responding

    Jump

  • Odd. Mine was working on 1.0.90, I just updated to 1.0.94 and now as you say the back button isn't doing anything. Hopefully it's an easy fix!

  • [BETA] Connect beta 1.0.90 Released

    Jump

  • One thing I noticed on the latest few updates is that (at least in card view which is what I use), pressing on the comment icon

    for a post brings up the screen to reply to the post instead of loading the comment thread (which is my expected response to that button). I'm fine having a dedicated reply button for a post but if that is the case, I think the icon should change to make it more obvious that that is what this button does. Like the reply button that appears elsewhere in the app

  • Discussion: What Android devices are you using?

    Jump

  • Galaxy Fold 4

    I never get tired of being able to use the front screen for simple browsing and quick access to things and then unfolding the phone to use the main screen for watching videos or playing games etc. I do have a few multi app pairs set up for certain specific scenarios (e.g. I have a Google calendar/Google keep app combo that is great for when I'm meal planning for the week and want to be able to add items to a grocery list at the same time). I truly don't think I would be happy going back to a non-folding phone in the future.

    I dislike the battery life of the phone. That's probably my biggest complaint and honestly it's not unmanageable. I've always got a giant 21,000 mAh battery pack in my backpack anyway so charging the phone a bit during the day if I've been hammering the battery watching YouTube for example isn't a problem for me. I'm a ideal world the battery life would be better and this wouldn't be necessary but it's not the end of the world.

    The under-display camera on the inner screen is truly terrible also but I almost exclusively use it for video chatting which already is bad quality usually just due to connectivity so it really doesn't bother me. If I were to take selfies (which I just don't do) I would use the camera on the front display. It is possible to unfold the screen and use the main cameras for selfies but as I said, I'm not a selfie taking kind of person.

  • What are some useful or just cool stuff to memorize?

    Jump

  • This is wrong? Taking 20°C as an example. Following this formula gives 48°F when it should be 68. Could you perhaps be supposed to add 32 instead of 12?

  • (it's not) Comment Interaction Broken in 88

    Jump

  • Yeah maybe it was just some old setting causing problems. Glad it's working now! I'm super impressed with the progress in this app daily.

  • (it's not) Comment Interaction Broken in 88

    Jump

  • I'm on the latest beta (1.0.88) with the reverse comment interaction on.

  • Seems to be working fine for me?

  • [Feature Request] Post Score threshold filter?

    Jump

  • Not really? I don't want to see posts that have a negative score. I think there should be a small margin which is why I think the threshold should be to only see posts that are more positive than -5 say. I'm willing to give a chance to posts that might languish around -1/0/+1 points but for posts that are heavily negative, the community has decided they aren't relevant or worth it and so I don't want to see them in my feed.
