The reason for the jump from 34 > 40 was due to lots of internal builds being published during testing to fix the issues!

[-] Cold_Brew_Enema@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago

You kick ass. Thanks for the hard work

[-] Razp@lemm.ee 27 points 1 year ago

241 and 328 were driving me mad :) Great update!

P. S. Is there a way to explore non-home instance "local" feed?

Thank you ๐Ÿ™

testing

beautiful

[-] mustardman@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 1 year ago

Thanks! This fixed a crash from the last update that occurred every time I loaded comments.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago

And now inline images work for me too :)

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

I had the same issue - totally fixed now!

Thanks LJ!

Hi! Just coming over from sync reddit, it asked to restore my purchase and said it couldn't be found. Is that set up yet? Or is there something I'm doing wrong?

[-] mp3@lemmy.ca 23 points 1 year ago

Purchases between the two are not transferable.

It's probably right under my nose, but does anyone know how to increase the font size of a post body? I seem to be able to change everything else except that.

[-] mom@nom.mom 3 points 1 year ago

Settings shortcut: View type > Selftext font

If you go through all of the view types, some have options for selftext, that others don't have - which I think is what you're looking for. If I misunderstood which part you're talking about, sorry.

[-] MrBobDobalina@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah this setting is messy in its current state. There's no font size options for the post body text directly, but it does get affected by the "self text font" option (which should be separate imo).

That option isn't there if you use any view type other than Cards or Slides though, so you have to change view type, then change the self text font, then change your view type back. This will change the font for the post body text.

Self text font is still missing the Line Spacing option which comment font options have, though

@ljdawson@lemmy.world

Did you remove the new picture selector that was added 2 updates ago? I've been unable to use it since the last update.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

Can you get there from the three dot menu top right?

[-] jackoid@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

No? I'm talking about the privacy based picture selector like the one used by the mastodon app.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

Surrey for misunderstanding. Do you have a screenshot of how it looks on Mastadon?

[-] pimento64@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

It was removed because it didn't allow users to select most of the images on their device. Use your gallery app of choice and you'll have as much privacy as you already did in the first place.

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

I added the option to browse all folders but also let the system decide which selector to show.

On my pixel I see the new picture selector variant.

[-] thimantha@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Any plans to bring the previous hide posts behaviour where the hidden posts reappeared upon refresh? The new behaviour has ruined Sync for me and many other users.

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

Added an option for the next release.

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

Thanks a lot! You're the best. ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿป

[-] Golfnbrew@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Sorry if I am an idiot, but I cannot find the language filter. I see posts in languages I don't know. I looked at my profile, all the settings headings, reinstall,.... Where is it? Does it exist?

Thanks!

[-] russjr08@outpost.zeuslink.net 2 points 1 year ago

I don't think Sync itself is able to set the language filter, however I do know that on the website itself you can change what languages you wish to see - this should affect the API and thus apply to Sync and any other apps you're signed into.

It looks like you're on lemmy.world so that should be over on this page under "Languages" - keep in mind the warning that it gives about deselecting the "Undetermined" option. If you deselect that option, a lot of posts/comments may end up getting hidden, since I believe Lemmy by default sends posts and comments as "Undetermined" unless you explicitly select otherwise (I don't know if Sync itself sends it as - I assume its undetermined though). On desktop, you hold "Control" to select multiple items, and depending on your browser / device on mobile it should show a selection menu that allows you to check-mark the ones you want.

[-] Golfnbrew@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Pretty sure I have my Lemmy account flagged English, but I'll play with settings there, thanks!

[-] chemsed@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

The spoiler tag is wrong. Also, there is no notification at all for now?

[-] mom@nom.mom 1 points 1 year ago

I think there are different ways to do spoilers on Lemmy, and sync gets one of them, but not all...

Using >!Text!&lt; >!this kind works!< (at least in the preview) And I think there's another kind that works, but I'm not sure. But even on the community info page it doesn't seem to work ...

AFAIK, you're correct that there are no notifications, but I don't have Ultra so wouldn't know if it's a feature for them.

[-] chemsed@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I see that the spoiler tag doesn't work in the web browser.
