Hi Boost gang,

The first version of Boost for Lemmy is almost ready. If you want to test the app for bugs and give feedback before the app is published, follow this link https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.rubenmayayo.lemmy to enable an early access option on the Boost for Lemmy Play Store listing.

Thanks for your patience!

Can you reduce the contrast of these lines Can you reduce the contrast of these lines

There's this general problem:

My password was too long for Sync and Voyager and now also Boost; I've been using Jerboa since it worked in that client.

Since Boost also had the issue I changed my password to a shorter one.

The old one was something like

Friday-Ramble-Patriot-Apricot5-Tractor-Litigator-Shove-Antivirus

... and the new one is shorter and is causing no issues.

Posting from Boost, already using it so much more the 3 previous apps I had (Jerboa, Voyager and can't remember). Feels like home. Thanks so much.

Looks great!

It's good to be back! This might just be my having missed a setting, but my system navigation bar has a white background even with the OLED dark mode active here. Aside from that, flawless so far!

Wife is getting this error when navigating to the download page from the "You are a Tester" page. It loads a Google Play page with the download button, then gives this error. Opening the Play app doesn't give her the download button. Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

Works great. It really feels like I'm using Boost for Reddit. Thank you mate, ad-free version purchased :)

[-] ChiefGeek1@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you. Ad free purchased! Keep up the good work

[-] Nautilla@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It just gives me an error when i try to download it. "Google play payments are not supported in your country. I'm in Germany

Amazing work

[-] Boldizzle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

For some reason I'm unable to pay to remove ads but I believe it might be a Google issue. Loving the app so far though!

[-] Dufrais@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Feels like home, have used Boost for absolutely years, so glad it's here for Lemmy now too

Hey all, I may be missing something obvious, but is it possible to add an account for an instance not in the pre-made list?

[-] WyldeFyres@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I would love to know this too.

Edit: yes, you can. Just type in the URL yourself in the instance box. No need to select from the list.

[-] Halosheep@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Maybe I'm doing it wrong, I typed the full URL and it just told me it failed. Hmm...

Hi! When I try to add a second account (in fact this account that I am posting from now), I always get an "incorrect login" error. I have triple checked that the login information is correct -- also I can log into this account on other lemmy apps and on desktop. If it helps, the first account I have logged into using Boost is on a different instance than the second account.

Anyway, I want to also say thank you, Ruben! I loved Boost for Reddit and I am loving Boost for Lemmy!

[-] redbr64@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Thanks @rmayayo@lemmy.world (testing how I can mention at users in Lemmy lol). Loved the app before, and this reincarnation is why I'm even in Lemmy right now in the first place. Already bought ad-free and also put some extra fuel in the rocket! ๐Ÿš€

Edit: testing mention again, since I didn't see it become a link in my comment: @rmayayo

Is there a setting to show seperate upvote/downvote counts? I'd prefer that over the "net" score which reminds me of r*ddit.

[-] Nipplecreek@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Can I sort by only gifs, pictures, or text? It was an option for the reddit version but I can't find how to do it on this new version for Lemmy.

When I press install it wants me to enter my password. When I'm back to press Install nothing happens. Whaaat.

Edit: works after about 45min. Patience ain't easy.

Edit2: You mean I can remove ads in this beautiful piece of work of an app for a normal price? Guess what! I paid! Nice work!

[-] IronBabyFists@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

When adding images to my profile (both my profile pic and my banner image), they get rotated 90โฐ counter-clockwise.

[-] onesh@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah! Thanks for the great Work. Btw. Rndnsfw is Not working ;)

[-] bilagaana@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

A minor ui glitch(?)

When scrolling through posts I noticed that occasionally the post summary would slightly scroll up cropping the first line in the summary.

After playing with it for a few minutes, I can reproduce the behavior by pressing on the summary, holding the press and dragging left or right, continuing to hold the press and dragging up or down.

It seems I tend to scroll with a slight diagonal motion instead of a pure up and down motion.

Screen shots showing the glitch: The post in godot@programming.dev, the "hey guys..." line gets scrolled off screen with the "diagonal scroll motion"

Normal post look

Glitched look

[-] SnowdenHeroOfOurTime@unilem.org 1 points 1 year ago

So far it feels solid to me. Thanks so much for your hard work

[-] schnitzelbub@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

It's great, I bought ad free just for your efforts. But 2 problems so far:

  1. error on uploading any image of any dimensions in any sublemmy.

  2. can't see the videos, not in preview Mode, nor in full-screen Mode.

What can i/we do?
