Apply list formatting to selected/pasted text
Currently, selecting a block of text, then applying list formatting (either ordered or unordered) replaces the text with an empty list. Starting a list, then pasting text, puts all of the text under the current entry in the list.
Ideally, it would apply the list formatting to existing text based on line breaks, and respect line breaks in pasted text to extend an existing list.
On iOS, not sure if this applies on android/web app.
"Mute" Community (?)
I have some communities I am subscribed to that are automated, and consequently become very spammy in the home feed, but I still want to view and engage with their content. It would be nice if there was a "mute" feature distinct from blocking that would allow hiding posts in a a community from the home feed but still allowing subscribing, since blocking unsubscribes you.
allow downvoting on instances where it is otherwise disabled
that way the user score tracker works fully even for us :3
Share link to post / comment using instance of choice
Hi, loving the app!
Something I hope could be added as a feature would be the ability to set an instance to use as the base for all link creation. As an example, I would like to always share Lemmy.world links when Iโm sending links to posts to my friends. Currently, the share button shares the canonical link to wherever the OPโs home instance is.
There is a web app called Lemmyverse.link that will create Lemmy.world links from any Lemmy link, but it would be extremely convenient if this functionality were built into Voyager.
Ideally this could be added as a feature to Lemmy, but in the meantime, Iโm hoping it could be added to Voyager!
Inbox Notifications for Mod Queue
It would be nice if notfications about new reports in the mod queue would be displayed in the inbox.
Right now I have to check the mod queue manually to see if there are new reports. This could lead to delays in moderating reported content.
Background app refresh
When I put my iPhone down for a bit and come back to Voyager, the app resets back to the top of the feed. I then have to scroll so far down to find the place I was at.
My iPhone settings does not show Voyager app in the background app refresh settings.
I believe this setting would keep the feed in the same place when I bring the app back.
Presets For User Tags
Please add presets to user tags so that it may be easier to tag the specific users as typing and colour selecting each time takes a little extra effort.
I love the feature as it makes easier to track interesting characters and alts. Lemmy needs user tags more than Reddit ever did.
Add language
Since it is possible to choose a language for posts from the web, it would be good to do the same in the app. It would help if in the future, an automatic translation system is integrated.
List of opened posts
I'd like to be able to find a list of posts I've actually opened do I can go back and find articles and such that I didn't finish reading. I can't find a way to do this so far but if there is a way I'd be happy to learn!
make long pressing links useful
on android long pressing links just "drags" them as if there was some place i could drop them, but i have found no such place.
i think a much more straightforward and useful feature would be to just offer to copy or open the link externally
show if article about to post is already posted on another instance or community.
Thunder Lemmy app shows before posting if the article that is about to be post was already posted to another community or instance. Maybe this feature can be brought to voyager as well?
User tagging
I would really appreciate a way to tag users, especially with the shitshow that is the ongoing decline of [insert favorite hero/villain here]. Blocking bad faith and misinformation actors gets them out of my face, but that's one less downvote. On the flip side, it's nice to keep track of the chill folks as well (like with Apollo's friend feature).
Edit: maybe also a setting to collapse certain tags by default, still hiding the rage bait but with the option to interact.
Saved categories
I donโt know if this would be anyhow useful for anyone else or easily implementable, but..
Categorized โSavedโ list, like:
- posts
- links
- media or photos, music, videos
- comments
Maybe as a quickly switchable categories on top or just a full next sub-menu?
Another great thing would be a sorting option for the list of saved things, like:
- by posted date
- by saved date
- A-Z / Z-A
To make the backtracking easier and faster?
screening out the subscribed community when viewing all
I like browsing through the "all" to discover new community and topics I'm unaware off. I used to do it also on Reddit. There, whenever I would subscribe to a community, I'd filter it out of the all view. Here I'm using block, but this would block the sub also from my home view. So, is ther a way to filter out the communities I'm already following?
Option to navigate by swiping left and right when viewing a post
pretty much what it says on the tin
It's a bit annoying to have to jump between post and feed view to read the comments and it would be intuitive, especially considering how this app already uses gestures, if you could just swipe while in post view to move to the post before or the post after
Block Instance from ... menu
It would be nice to be able to block instances from the context menu now that it's a supported feature of Lemmy!
Justification:
The scaled All feed was just spammed with tests from the same instance but different communities. I was able to block the individual communities, but didn't see an option to block the instance.
The instance in this case is some longish IP address-like numbers with extra words after, and I couldn't find a way to copy past it to the block instances section of the app.
I apologize if this has been posted. I searched but didn't find the request for added UX, just lots of asks for blocking instances itself prior to the addition to Lemmy.
Disable animation when jumping between top comments
Would love the option to turn off the scrolling animation when jumping between top comments.
Also wouldn't hate a jump upwards button too. ๐
Hide "duplicate" / cross posts
Due to the decentralized nature, and multiple communities on same subject exist across multiple instances, it is not uncommon for people to be subscribed to multiple communities of the same subject. It is also not uncommon for people to submit the same thing to multiple communities of the same subject, thereby resulting in multiple posts of the same content appearing in the feed. Cross post or not, the duplicated content clutter the feed, making it more difficult to consume content quickly.
I think it would be helpful to declutter by hiding/collapsing these posts. A possible implementation could be to keep an index of post titles, author, and submission time; then hide/collapse (cross)posts with same title, submitted by the same author, within some time interval (say for example +/- 1hr). That way the feed wouldnโt be as cluttered.
I understand cross referencing each post against other known posts is an exponentially large task, and could be very resources consuming, so even with t
