(Guys i’m not a developer, post your thanks and request in the group😅)

Developer of Connect here. Congratulations on the launch and Liftoff looks great!
Thanks. I’d not heard of Connect before, but it’s so exciting to see so many other great apps under development. It will keep us all on our toes!
You are not stripping spaces at the end of login names in your app (sorry to ping you here but saw your reply and it reminded me to ask)
I couldn’t get logged in to connect, or liftoff, then noticed I had a space (From selecting the suggestion on my phone). Didn’t catch it until just now trying to login to liftoff. I’ve seen a couple complaints about getting logged into these apps. Wonder if I’m not alone with the extra space.
Seems like most reddit clients are named: “BlaBla for reddit”. It makes it easy to find clients for reddit. I wonder if this would also be beneficial for lemmy clients.
Yeah I agree. It would be easier to find. When I search for Liftoff, there is a bunch of games involving planes.
After downloading it and using all afternoon. Love it my only comment on the UX
- lines between cards on the dark amyloid theam.
Thats it. Otherwise it is pretty nifty.
I cannot comment on a lot of stuff i can with jerboa for some reason. It throws “you are not logged in there”
What about Fdroid?
This is a pretty nice app! I especially like that it shows me content from multiple Lemmy instances, without my home instance needing to federate with them!
I have some feedback, though: when I see content from lemmy.ml, the app should use my lemmy.world account to vote and comment, as if I were viewing that instance through lemmy.world. It really defeats the purpose of federation if I can’t use the same account, after all.
I second this, intensely! It’s very silly…
Is making an account on every instance a thing that should really be done?
Fundamentally, I think it doesn’t really matter. But as the first commenter said, the point of federation is that you only need 1 account on 1 federated instance to interact with everything. If the app doesn’t let you do that, it’s just defeating the point.
Hopefully soon on f-droid as well
The link works for me, but for some reason I can’t find it when I search for it in the Play Store? I tried “liftoff”, “liftoff!” and “liftoff Lemmy”…
I had to search using:
Liftoff fediverse -reddit
Had to add the -reddit to keep the reddit apps from junking up the results.
Fdroid possibly wink wink
Signing in to first account only let me use email not username (lemmy.world) second account attempt to add (beehaw) produced an error. Android, Google pixel 6 pro. Didn’t really want to post here in your launch post but couldn’t find a place to enter bugs.
I think beehaw is having issues
Yeah beehaw was down
I love it so far, thanks for your hard work making the migration from Reddit easier.
One question, Im trying to send my friend a link to am article a post is looking to. The share button exports the lemmy link and not the actual article. If i click open in browser, it opens the federated instance hosting the article (kbin in this case) and not my browser, so i still have no way to copy the link right to the article. Any ideas.
Again, thank you
Ahhh, smooth scrolling! NGL that is the only thing that was pushing me away from jebora!
Ong it’s the most annoying bug, well that was until it stopped allowing me to switch to all >:(
“Html string could not ne resolved”
My favorite of the options I’ve tried so far, only request currently is to be able to remove the bottom bar when scrolling down the feed.
Really nice, but I’m wondering about some choices
Why “everything” exists?
I thought All meant that, while Local meant your instance only and Subscribed is whatever you are subscribed to.
Also, this seems to lead to some issues interacting with other instances overall. I can’t subscribe to an instance while looking at everything, even tho it is federated to mine.
I can see why the devs did it this way Maybe organization and all? But is it not defeating the purpose of the Fediverse?
Might want to have the app autoselect some form of instance/community. I watched the loading circle for a minute before I started clicking around and selected communities to see it did in fact work.
I’ve got it installed via github but it doesn’t show up in the search in the playstore for me
