Footnotes^[1] are also undocumented.

Yeah, it’s rather inconsistent. I opened an issue for it a while ago.

There isn’t a way to do this at the moment. Apollo had this feature, and we’ve been keeping track of the idea here. Unfortunately, this is tricky to implement because of limitations imposed by Apple’s frameworks. It’s certainly possible, but would take some time to work out and isn’t on our immediate agenda.

Yes, searching for posts and comments will be in 2.0!

Mlem v2 is a completely different codebase to Mlem v1, so bugs that exist on v1 are likely to be fixed in v2. We’re aware of an Mlem v1 crash that occurs on iPad when Face ID Unlock is enabled - this is unfortunately difficult to fix because of the way Face ID Unlock works.

In iOS 18, Apple is introducing native support for Face ID Unlock in any app. This makes our own system redundant, so we’ll be removing our version of the feature in favor of the more reliable iOS equivalent.

We’re making several quality-of-life tweaks to the iPad layout in 2.0! So far, we’ve made the image viewer full-screen and updated the sidebar to look a bit more modern. Here’s a sneak peek:

There’s also a setting for a more compact sidebar layout, if you prefer that:

(This is all WIP, it might change. Ignore the lack of All/Local/Subscribed buttons, those will be back in before the first TestFlight).

We’re also adding a setting that displays posts in a grid with two or more columns, which will make the posts look less wide in this format.

Longer-term we’re considering some ways that we can improve the iPad layout as a whole - such as having a three-column layout - but there’s some navigation problems to work out and we can’t promise that anything like that will be in 2.0.

Sure, I’ll add one in the next Mlem version 👍

Hey there! This is possible - if you go to Appearance -> Posts -> Customize Widgets, you can drag-and-drop the individual upvote and downvote counters into the post layout.

I’m not sure. Someone had the same issue a couple of months ago; they said that changing their password fixed it. It’s possible that certain special characters in the username/password causes issues. In the next Mlem update we’re rewriting the login system, and will check to see if that’s the problem.

Hey! At the moment this isn’t (easily) possible. We’ll add a way to do this in the next update 👍

Yep, this is a known issue. When a comment chain gets too long, Lemmy doesn’t send all of the comments in the initial API response. When this happens, the web UI displays a “show n more replies” button that can be tapped to load the remaining comments:

We just haven’t got around to adding this button to Mlem yet, but it’s something we will certainly look into in future. We’re tracking the issue here.

Sorry I didn’t see your comment until now; your post didn’t federate to lemmy.ml properly for some reason so I only just saw it whilst using my alt account.

This is related to a change in Lemmy v0.19.4. We’ve fixed this issue; it’ll be live in a day or two.

I’m glad it’s working now :)

Hey there! We’re sorry this isn’t working for you. Just to be clear, you should be typing “lemm.ee” in the “Instance” field and “chimera” in the “username” field.

If that doesn’t work, there’s unfortunately something wrong with our login system. I’m currently unable to find the root cause - I’ve tried creating an account on lemm.ee, and am able to login without any problems. I’ve created an issue on our GitHub repository here and will let you know if we make any progress.

Hey there! Mlem doesn’t control the way that posts are sorted when using the “Hot” sort mode - that’s something that Lemmy does. The mechanism of the “Hot” sorting algorithm is described in detail here.

You may prefer to use one of the “Top of…” sort modes instead, if you’d like to see more popular posts. In Mlem, you can change the default sort mode under Settings -> Sorting -> Posts.

Adding widgets is something we’re interested in; we’re keeping track of the feature here. Right now, it’s not high on our priority list as it doesn’t directly impact the core functionality of the app. Therefore, it’s unlikely to happen in the next few updates, though we do plan to explore it in future.

Not yet, I’m afraid. We’re tracking the issue here. The next major update will include a complete rewrite of large sections of backend the app, in which we aim to solve this issue.

This isn’t possible in Mlem right now, but we can add it to the next beta 👍

We’re aware of a bug in which Mlem sometimes crashes when moving into the background on iPad when “Lock with Face ID” is on. Do you have that setting enabled? We’ve looked into that issue and now know why it happens, but it’s unfortunately rather tricky to fix with our current architecture. In the next major update we’re rewriting a large part of our codebase, which should allow us to fix this.

Does this happen on every comment you post, or just some? I’m not able to reproduce this either yet, unfortunately.
