Connect 1.0.171 Released

Hi, it’s been a while since I’ve done one of these so this will be changes between 150 and 171. I’ve been focused on resolving image and performance issues mainly in this time but I also added a couple new things too. Youtube links now open in-app (configurable in settings), there’s an option to remove special characters...

Probably in the next 2-3 releases. It’s next on my list after import/export settings.

Hi, thanks for the feedback and this should now be fixed on ver169.

Cheers! Glad you’re enjoying the app :)

Hi, thanks for the feedback! I think this might be related to caching and the app switching from keeping images in memory versus loading from storage. Does this also happen on list views for you? Asking because list view images are much smaller.

Hi, I’ve updated the controls to be white on the most recent version. Previously it would depend on light/dark mode. Thanks for the feedback!

Hi, thanks for the feedback! I’ve pushed a possible fix in ver164 on the beta channel.

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

I’ll take a look! Is this for all images or specific images? What happens when you open an image?

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

Ok thank you that is helpful. I think I see what’s going on (this is the breaking image lemmy.zip/…/aa9afd51-0d2e-492e-b485-74e9d0a852c2.… but this works lemmy.zip/…/aa9afd51-0d2e-492e-b485-74e9d0a852c2.… so I’m guessing Pictrs doesn’t like when I’m specifying the webp format on images already in that format). Should be fixed in the next release (tomorrow).

Hi, thanks for the feedback and I’ve added highlights as an experimental setting in v163.

I’m still playing with the logic and highlight color so it might change more in the future. That information doesn’t come through the API so I’m saving a timestamp of when a post is viewed and any comments newer than the timestamp are highlighted.

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

I’m keeping a timestamp locally of when a post is last viewed and highlighting everything newer than that timestamp. If you use multiple apps it might not be accurate but I couldn’t find a way to access this information from the API.

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

New post would be preferred! Then it has more visibility instead of buried in a comment chain.

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

Thanks and I’m checking it out! Should be fixed in the next release.

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

I’ve released 161 if you’re on the beta which possibly fixes this issue.

Some comments display as looooong grey boxes (lemmy.ca)

Hello, I’ve seen a bunch of comments recently that are just grey boxes which take a good two dozen swipes or more to scroll to the bottom of. I assumed they were trolls at first, but I checked one in a web browser today and it’s a comment that includes an animated file:...

Hi, thank you for the feedback! This issue will be fixed in the next beta release tonight.

Edit: it should now be fixed (ver 157)

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I’ve seen this mentioned a couple times and it’s on my list. I’ll try to get it in for the next update.

@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

Hi, thank you for the feedback and this should now be fixed (v159)

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

Hi. This should now be fixed! On ver159. Thank you for the feedback.

@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

Hi. I’ve added Scaled/Controversial sort in the latest beta (156). Thanks for the feedback!

Recurring issues with comments

Howdy y’all! I’m still enjoying Connect and recommending it to everyone, but I’ve been having more and more issues displaying comments, either when opening a post that clearly says “X comments” but ends up being empty, or when clicking on “View more (X)” on my profile only for it to disappear. Any idea why? I...

@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

Hi, I can look into this. Is this intermittent or if it’s happening on some posts consistently do you have an example of where it’s happening?

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

I’ll take a look at this behaviour and see what I can do. Thank you for the feedback!

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

I’m monitoring the 0.19 release. If you’re in the 152 beta it should have some compatibility fixes (and currently rolling that out to everyone).

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

Ok thank you that’s helpful. I’ll take a look at those two instances and what’s going on.

Connect 1.0.150 Released

Hi, this update is mostly focused on some performance updates to Image rendering and memory management. I stripped out the old plugin I had doing this and am now handling things a bit more manually. Hopefully this should improve the experience of long scrolling sessions. I did refactor a lot so if you see any bugs here please...

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

Are you on version 160?

kuro_neko,
@kuro_neko@lemmy.ca avatar

Is that on all posts from the All feed or only specific ones? You could try 163 on the beta channel but I’m not sure that will fix the issue.
