  • Hey @aeharding

    I found a bug but neither a screenshot nor a video would show it. Let me explain:

    I opened a post in this community (title: Can’t save images by long pressing) that was short and had very few comments, making the entire content fit exactly inside the screen, almost exactly. On a regular/longer post, I can pull to refresh, but in this case it seems like scrolling is completely disabled. No matter how much I try to swipe up or down, the whole thing is static. it works in the PWA, though.

    I also think it’s lacking a bit of padding between the last comment and the tabs at the bottom, but that’s also happening in the PWA, so I guess it’s not app related.

    Great work overall! Hope this helps











  • I once helped my niece set up her Android phone. That’s the only time i’ve used an Android phone for over 2 minutes.

    But hey, at least Android is customizable to the point of maybe getting a version with no gestures. I just can’t imagine what that means anyway. Scrolling by tapping arrows…? Zooming in by tapping on a magnifying glass? Gestures are the way we interact with screens.



  • I strongly believe that GPT is a (really impressive) gimmick. I’m not conviced that it has the potential for growth every outlet is pushing. No matter the brand or model (Bard, Bing, OpenAI, Apple if it happens), I don’t think this will exponentially improve over time like other tech has. It relies on growth in computational power, bandwidth/cloud connectivity and access to quality content for learning. The first two are already mature technologies that will improve marginally over time and access to new content will be increasingly difficult, specially if the web gets flooded with texts written by GPT.

    So yeah, it’s cool they create their own model and add it to their services, but it’s not a big deal.
