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.
I think you could do that with Boost for Reddit, but I can’t go check because fuck reddit for breaking my favorite app. Anyway, based on that it may be possible but also Lemmy works entirely differently so… Maybe
Thanks for all your hard work! Can’t believe how great Connect is in such a short period of time.
Whenever you have time, could you implement saving your place in the comments when coming back to a post. Sometimes I exit a post by accident and when I go back in its takes me all the way to the top.
+1 for that feature.
Thank you devs for doing all the hardworks for this project<3

Could make an IAP be a donation option so a “paid key” is unneccesary

I’ve got Rewards money that expires in about a week. I’d love to be able to use money tied up in Google Play to make a donation. I don’t know what else to use it on.

Feature request: Hide annoying emoji display names (show usernames)
Not sure if this is what you’re looking for but ‘show instance tags in names’ will show the real usernames and not display names.
Thanks, it works! The setting is a bit confusing though, I didn’t understand what the setting does until you explained it.
But still shows the display name (if a user has one) before the instance tag though. What OP meant I guess was just showing the original username (even the user has set a display name)
Upvote colour can now be customized.
Woohoo! This looks so good now, thank you Kuro!
My vote for next changes would be to have granular theme customizations (choosing specific color to apply to specific screen elements), AND the ability to export / import themes and settings. Tablet UI features would also be nice (e.g., landscape mode for posts | comments in side-by-side panels).
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.

Connect is a great app, support this dev!
Looks great, thanks for the hard work!
Additional theming would be nice. Personally, I would like the option to move the upvote/downvote arrows and points count to the left of the post in list mode.
I’d like to see a way to scroll to the top on a single button press. If there’s one then I’m blind lol
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?
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

is there a way to suggest ideas in-app?
