Already the next one? Do you guys even sleep?

Nice work!

I don't think they have time to sleep. Incredible development speed.

Thank you!

I've been using liftoff together with wefwef, alternating them for one reason only: the font size of the comments.

My eyesight is not the best. That makes reading smaller text hard. Still, I used liftoff for how practical it is. If tired, I would open Wefwef.

But with this update you made me smile with joy! Wow, now I can easily read the comments. You're the best. Thanks a ton.

Sorry it took so long! Let me know if you have any issues!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

This was me as well. Thanks devs for adding this. I'm now 100% Liftoff!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Thank you! Loving the speed of these updates and response to feedback 👍hope you all have a great weekend and a break!

Liftoff is IMHO the best app yet for Lemmy

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I absolutely love the new icon

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Thank you so much for adding the ability to change the body and comment font size! This has been invaluable.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Awesome. The #1 reason I drop an app when I used them for reddit was because font sizing was not as granular as it needed to be. Something always looked off

I actually was fine with the look prior to this, but I'm looking forward to tweaking it further.

I don't know if this is the right place to request features, but I'll do it anyway.

It'd be awesome if we could have a way to read the entire text in a post on the main page itself. Right now, we need to open the post itself to read the full content. If there was a button that said read more, or even an option in the settings to always show full text, it'd be a blessing.

Thanks for all your work on the app. It truly has been a joy to use!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Woohoo, change comment/body text size!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the update, really like being able increase comment font size, & the extra customizations. Navigating around is a breeze & really intuitive, super app..👍🏼

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

The progression of this app is just insane. Thank you again for all the hard work, it's just such a delight to use.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

This is my main app on android and iOS.. I love it. Thanks devs

Thanks for the updates! Using Liftoff is getting easier by the day. 😁

Great stuff!

When did the in-app browser switch to Chrome Custom Tabs? No all my Lemmy activity shows up on my Chrome History. Can we get an option to make it an incognito tab?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Love the adaptive icon. Good work all!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I just wanted to thank you, I can now see my subscriptions. Also, I'm not sure if this was a feature before but Ireally like the color coded replies. Love this app.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You're great thanks for the update. Am I missing something or it is currently impossible to change the background color of the post cards? I would like a darker grey.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

This is currently not possible. We'll see about supporting it. You can go darker with AMOLED, but I know some users want an in between.

More theming capability will come eventually but likely after official iOS/Android release

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Love the new comment settings and that we can change the different font sizes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Thank you so much everyone!
