Yeah, I think I just handle the login differently so Lemmios will log out much quicker if there is an error, tell me if there are any more bugs though, I'll try my best to fix them!
Ok fixed! Will be pushed to testflight and then the app store when apple review finishes, I'll update as that process happens. Sorry for the bugs lol
EDIT: Published on both!
Yeah it’s due to the 0.19 beta update, will work on fixing this (should be quick) later tonight
Huh, could you send me a video of this behavior? It seems to be working fine for me. Just to make sure, where is this happening?
Almost all stuttering during scroll has been removed!
For those who want to know the technical reasons, all the caching was happening on the same thread that was handling the scrolling, but moving it to a background thread makes it feel much better!
Hmm, from what I have seen there is no way inside the Lemmy API to do this (would love details if this has been added) and I have been told by Lemmy developers to not try this until then since for large community groups it would severely impact server performance. I'll ping @steve228uk@lemmy.world just in case they want to help
Also, as the developer of Lemmios, it is somewhat negligence on my part (not saying this is true for any of the other app developers, just me), we all google when we code and generally the newer features make things much easier so it is really hard to google older features since they are harder to implement and get quite buried. I also think for me at least my apps start as passion projects I don't really expect anyone to use so I forget that iOS versions under my current one exist lol, it's a lot easier to start on 16.0 and stay on 16.0 forever than go lower after the project has started, sorry.
Hey, Lemmios developer here, what do you mean by cutting off images? It’s a known bug (I’m not sure that’s the right word because it’s working as intended just looks odd when people embed images in the body of a post) that Lemmios will only show the begging of a text post in the main feed, but once a post is clicked on there shouldn’t be any cut off images? The image loads fine for me and I would love a screenshot of it getting cut off if you can?
It also has the ability to resolve reports so there is less reason to leave the app than ever! Notifications for reports is coming next!
Also, the amount of swiping needed to start the upvote/downvote gesture is much higher (about halfway to the transition point), making scrolling a lot easier!
It does not mean that lemmy is less secure, but yes, it means that malicious app developers will have a much easier time stealing login credentials because entering them inside the app is already the norm. However this is definitely a feature that can be added so it does not mean anything bad long term

This update took a long time due to Apple's review taking forever, but I'm proud to say that the crash counts have significantly lowered in the beta, going from about 1 in 50 sessions to now generally 0 for every build! This also adds crossposting and many UI improvements!
I hope everyone enjoys!
Even though they are both fediverse they still are quite different and one of the important differences is that lemmy does not support oauth so apps don’t have that option, as for why all mastodon apps use it: it’s because of the security benefits to the user and (as a lemmy app developer) implementing auth is hard lol
Due to many people asking we now have T-shirts if you want to rock your Lemmios usage out around the world! Also just a very cool logo for people who don’t know it! Anyone buying this would be very appreciated!
EDIT: for those in the EU we have an alternate storefront
Due to demand, I have submitted the designs to Cotton Bureau (the company Apollo used) so once it gets approved everyone will be able to order shirts!
Yeah, I'm trying to add as much as I can, thanks for the recognition!
Yeah, it is greatly improved with units and a better default value, and I wish it could be transparent but there is no pictrs API for max image size, that is an issue for the lemmy devs

Hey there, Lemmios dev here, what do you mean by not usable? It works great for me and the other users I've asked?

So let me start this by thanking so many people for using Lemmios! But more people does come with some issues, I currently have 126 users on lemmy.world that have notifications enabled, which means enough requests that I am starting to hit their rate limits and a solution needs to be found. I have identified a few options:
- Start requiring a cost for notifications in order to limit users (instructions to self-host server for no cost will be available)
- Make notifications have a significant delay (definitely don't want this)
- Offer to lemmy.world devs to pay for a higher rate limit just for the Lemmios servers (definitely ideal but Lemmios hasn't made any money yet and I'm a highschooler with very limited funds lol, I'll drop a donation link just in case anyone is feeling insanely generous)
What does everyone here think is the best option?

There are currently 3 icons that just change the background, but if anyone wants to submit suggestions (or even icons would be amazing) we can start adding more!
Thank you so much, it really means a lot to hear the positive feedback, and many more features will be coming soon!
From any post or comment in a community you moderate, you can easily ban a user with an optional expiry date and the ability to remove all content from that user!
Beta updates are moving to !lemmiosappbeta@lemmy.world to keep this community reserved for community polls and App Store updates
I am thinking of adding live activities (similar to how apollo did), but it seems like it would be a fair bit of work and I want to judge how much the community wants it before I start the undertaking. Thanks for the input!
Lemmios can now give you reminders to check back in on a post when you’re waiting for an update!
Yeah, but hopefully iOS 15 will be coming soon, the migration is slow but ongoing!
And the comments disappearing has been fixed! (Pending apple review)
I always hate suggesting the basic troubleshooting options, but have you tried signing out, uninstalling, and then reinstalling?
I sent out the post just as the app released so Apple still says they're working on getting it distributed, I have it enabled for all App Store regions so check back soon!

Edit: We made it to the App Store!!!!
Hey, so this is just going to be a quick post discussing my frustration with app review and how I am hoping beyond hope that someone here will be able to give me some insight on the process and what I might be doing wrong.
Lemmios keeps getting rejected by Apple for "Users cannot have a mechanism in the app to enable or disable access to NSFW content; enabling or disabling NSFW content should be done through the service website" and I am extremely confused about what they might be referring to since I believe that is how Lemmios currently works. If anyone has any ideas I will try them since this experience has severely lowered my motivation to work on Lemmios.
For some context my current note to the reviewers is "NSFW content will only be shown after it is enabled on lemmy.world, which has not been done for the testing user, even though there is an option to blur it that option will do nothing since no NSFW content will be shown to the test user (unless app review goes to the website to enable it). There is also an attachment to show how NSFW content is labeled as such if the current user has already enabled it on the website. Also, to block a user, you have to go to that user's page and tap on the 3 dots in the top right corner and tap "Block". Thank you!"
