Did you post a Feature Request on the Lemmy connect community? The Dev is pretty reactive, to bugs as well as to requests.

Connect has most of the features people are asking for here

Me too, which makes Sync an endless scroll of black squares where ads should be. No thanks, Connect it is.

Thanks for the info. I'm a bit on the classic side, on mobile, with adguard DNS, proton VPN and Firefox Focus.

The F with websites that doesn't allow my DNS, my VPN, and my adblocker. My browser, my rules - your website and business plan, your choice. My private data.

Block Instance is available on the Connect app.

I've never seen that a publisher who's locking it's books would sell them different on different platforms. I just checked Andy Weir from his own website, it is all amazon / apple / google etc locked versions - or pulp-tree-and-ink.

But I'd be very happy to be wrong; have you got sites to recommend?

[–] reallyzen@unilem.org 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yes. I buy on ebooks dot com, where you can filter by the DRM-free critter. It is also a neat trick to discover new authors.

I do this absolutely out of personal opinion on the matter, and would rather buy dead-tree-and-ink than a closed version (that won't open on my e-reader anyway).

The whole - and excellent - Murderbot Diaries series is DRM-free ! I wonder what/who make the decision on that matter.

This is going to be my next requested feature to the Connect android app. They are super-reactive, squashing bugs in 24h or less, and adding features as fast also.

 

New Bug Of The Day :)

Step to reproduce: set all settings for all accounts to blur nsfw content ; subscribe to an nsfw sub ; when a post appear (as intended as a nsfw gray square) click on the name of the author - results : all the post history of the author is uncensored.

Edit: same happen if I click on the subbed community from the left panel.

Good luck with this one, and as ever, thanks and congrats for your good work and dedication.

Thank you so much. Unrelated bug, I couldn't "buy you a coffee" from my android phone, be it Firefox or Chrome. I'll try from home.

Do you use to eat your eggs sunny-side-up? (With the yellow still liquid?) If so, you should be safe. Or you've been lucky, I have no clue as to the prevalence of Salmonella in Brazil.

 

On beta (from the g play store) 1.0.144 I can't zoom on pictures anymore. Pinch doesn't work, double-tap neither. I've disabled all gestures/tap actions in case the touchscreen registered something wrongly.

Pics only occupy 1/3 of screen if clicked from List view; shows full screen from Card view. It's the same on 3 different accounts on 3 different instances - can't zoom in or out.

Thank you for your commitment to Connect and Lemmy.

THANKS you're the best :)

 

As a former user of RiF, one thing I used a lot was filtering out media / sites I don't want to hear from, places I don't trust etc.

It would be a fantastic addition to keywords and users/communities blocking already in place. Like I don't want to see stuff from youtube, for instance. Or the Daily Mirror...

Keep up the good work, so far Connect is my favorite app to lurk the lemmyverse!
