Could I instead interest you in an embody? I find it's a much better model.

You need the software running in the background. For what it's worth, the overhead is basically 0 when I use it.

Or for linux, Input Remapper (Pop OS has this by default in their repository)

Try the program "REWASD". Or for linux, Input Remapper (Pop OS has this by default in their repository)

 

I'd love to use this as my main app, but gestures are hard for me. I'd love it if I could tap once on the screen to dismiss media that was brought up by tapping a thumbnail (in compact view). Ideally there would be very little delay between tap and dismiss.

Can't load that image, I get this error:

{"error":"unknown","message":"Request error: error sending request for url (http://pictrs:8080/image/original/829ac091-176e-4c14-b8d1-5a367023ad08.jpeg): operation timed out"}

Doesn't happen with any other instance.

I think a haiku bot is funny, especially in the right circumstances. It was one of the only bots I enjoyed seeing around reddit.

Why can I almost never load any images from science_memes? I can load every other community and instance. This happens on all platforms for me, even on different local networks a whole state away.

Edit: Example:

{"error":"unknown","message":"Request error: error sending request for url (http://pictrs:8080/image/original/f0df2dda-387d-42e9-b0d3-eae6db20e11c.jpeg): operation timed out"}

My job is also an IT job with big responsibility. I wouldn't have compared the 2 jobs otherwise. Not sure where you got filling grocery store shelves from.

My job didn't even require a video interview, this unpaid role has more strict requirements than half the jobs in the US haha.

First off, amazing app. I didn't use boost for reddit, but currently this is the best app for my personal uses that is out there. I use the small cards with full width images. I mainly browse by tapping the image to expand the preview.

Previously, I used relay for reddit with a very similar layout.

I have 4 features/changes that I would love to see options for.

  1. I am left handed, and I have the image thumbnails on the left. It's very difficult for me to reach the floating button to hide read posts. I cannot do it while holding my phone in my left hand. An option to put the button in the middle or on the left would be nice.

  2. One of the best features of relay was how quick it was to open and close images. All of the images would pre-load the hq versions so when I tapped, there would be 0 loading at all. I've noticed some loading with boost for lemmy which isn't super annoying but it would be cool to avoid.

  3. Relay had an option to disable double tap to zoom in previews. This means that when you would tap an image to dismiss, it would not wait for the double tap and would disappear immediately. This is the single biggest difference between the 2 apps that I notice regularly. It does get kind of annoying, having to wait every time. There is currently no lemmy app that has this feature.

  4. When dismissing an image, it simply disappears. It would be cool if the image "shrunk" back into the thumbnail location which would make it easier to see which post I just opened in case there are similar looking image thumbnails next to each other, such as text images. Relay also has this.

Again, I'm not trying to bash the app. This will be my app of choice going forward and I've already purchased the ad removal. It really is a fantastic app. I'm just throwing some ideas out there that could be cool :)
