Per this thread, I’m wondering if it might be possible to create feeds of favourited people or communities.

I guess this would be similar to how multireddits worked and since that’s not available on Lemmy, this might not be either. But maybe some smart person out there knows of a way.

It’s not even me that wants to do it, but I’m invested in an answer now! :-)

  • I’ve noticed this too. Most of the time it works, but ever so often it fails.

    I wonder if it could be a file size limit or something? Some screenshots will be more complex than others and thus might be just the wrong side of the line for uploading. I’ve not looked into in detail though, so can’t say for sure.

  • Seeing the same issue this morning, sure it was working quite recently though.

    EDIT - yep, posted a gif 4 days ago and an image a week ago, so something has changed since then.

    EDIT 2 - trying that same image again:

    And that seems to work. Filesize maybe? Or extension (my first attempt today was a jpg, that one is a png)?

    EDIT 3 - jpg, 1.5Mb:

    Success. That’s a smaller version of an image that failed to post. Bigger version was 2.9Mb, so maybe there’s a limit?

    In case it helps…

  • This is more of a fix than a feature, but I find that sometimes when I’m in my inbox, I can’t get back to my home screen. It’s inconsistent but it happens a lot, and I usually have to open a comment reply, then go to the thread, then the community, and then I can use the home button again.

    It’s something that happened with Sync for Reddit too, so it’s not a new issue. I can’t seem to work out a pattern of circumstances though, it just seems to happen randomly.

I’ve no idea if this is technically possible at all, but on posts like the one above, where multiple images have been added, it would be really handy to be able to swipe between them as if they were in a gallery. At present it’s a case of open one, close it, open the next, etc…

Same for comments, not sure if that would be different than posts.

Thanks :-)
