This feature is now in development for Thunder!
Hey, thanks for sharing this! We now have a GitHub issue open to track the two small things that Thunder failed. Nice to see it did so well, though! :-)
Thunder allows cross-posting! It should follow the web UI implementation (where the body of the new post has a link to the original, plus the original contents in a quote block).
Since you mentioned RDP over SSH, I thought you might be interested in this GUI tool I made to do just that.
Hi @blackbrook@mander.xyz, is it possible that you could show a screen recording of the issue you're seeing? I'm wondering if you're seeing the playback controls (play/pause/seek/etc). These appear over the video at the very beginning and have a dimmed background so you can see the controls. This is pretty standard for video players (e.g. YouTube does the same). As @MicrowavedTea@infosec.pub said, you can tap anywhere to hide the controls and undim the video.
Just FYI, coming from a Thunder dev, the full contents of deleted and removed contents are available via the API, and it's up to us to hide the contents. It's easy to miss use cases (like another user mentioned you can see deleted comments by replying in Sync; that's just an (easy) oversight by the dev). I'm glad to hear that they won't even be available in the API starting with 0.19.4!!
I will admit I am very biased as a contributor to Thunder. I'm not an expert on all clients but Thunder has some super cool features.
- Really good markdown rendering (I've seen it render things that the other "big" apps miss.
- The agility to post and (soon) comment as any of your logged-in accounts.
- Notifications for inbox messages, soon to be integrated with UnifiedPush.
- Really good Lemmy link parsing and in-app navigation.
- Ability to favorite communities.
- Customizable swipe gestures, username and community name formatting and coloring, action colors, etc.
And these are just some of the recent things on the top of my head! I'm sure others can chime in with things I missed!
Hey there! You can block communities in a bunch of different ways!
- From long-pressing on a post and pressing the Community option and then Block Community.
- By navigating to a community page, pressing the top banner / info button, and pressing Block Community.
- By navigating to the account page, settings gear icon, scrolling to Blocked Communities, pressing the plus icon, and searching for a community to block.
There may even be some more ways I'm not thinking of. Plus if you block a community via the web UI or any other app, Thunder should respect that.
Let us know if that helps!
Let OP/mod colors take precedence and override the default color with them
I think this is a good idea! This should allow for colorized user/instance names while keeping special user badges distinguishable.
Just chiming in here to say that this has already been implemented in the current prerelease and should be available in the upcoming general release!
This isn't yet supported from the account page (it should be at some point), but there is a workaround. It you navigate to your user profile elsewhere in the app, for example by searching for yourself or tapping your username on a post/comment, then scrolling should hide the banner as you expect. Hope that helps!
Glad you like it!
