We're talking about these buttons, right? (I think the preview is too narrow, so click for full context) I've yet to dig deeply into this stuff from a dev PoV, but interesting to hear about your experiences.

System buttons on Android. A triangle pointing left, followed by a circle, followed by a square, followed by a human.

Trying out React compiler on our React 18 app. Really easy to get set up, and people like @no.lol are doing work making sure you feel supported! Keeping things simple paid off big time. Only had to change the API of one sketchy custom hook, and click Play. Now I'm looking at a lot of sparkles ✨

Are you familiar with this setting?

As for hard rules, I think these are all the settings exposed.

Chat settings, allowing new messages from "Everyone", "Users I follow" or "No one".

I found it good but a bit quiet when I followed fewer people. You might also find these settings useful. I used to front every reply just to make things a bit more noisy.

Umm, like this? Has always worked fine for me on Android (probably works the same on all platforms?) but it seems to lack context, so it may be a few keystrokes to wade through all existing accounts.

Writing "@feeb" and finding the expected account in the list of suggestions.

Maybe this would help you?

We're talking about the post composer experience on Android, right? If so, here are a few samples from my Fairphone 4. It's like the text field ends slightly later (a pixel or three) than the screen, thus causing a minor cutoff. Very not terrible, just a minor nuisance.

Have you seen this setting? Pretty handy in my opinion.

The "Require alt text before posting" setting from the Accessibility Settings page.

At least getting set up using your build instructions (github.com/bluesky-soci...) was trivial (for someone who is already familiar with Expo). Didn't try Android or iOS yet, but having this running in 5 minutes is a promising start :)

Is this the button you are referring to, and would a size enhancement like this do you any good?

First impression is so-so 😬 Happened to every (tested 2) polls on both mobile Firefox and Chrome.

An obvious error with a stack trace that doesn't make much sense to the uninitiated.

I have mixed feelings.. (from a reporter PoV). I wanted to report a bug yesterday, and ran into this. I totally understand why it's needed, but with no prior knowledge of the maintainer's responsiveness, creating a reproduction feels akin to writing a cover letter for a long shot job application.

A Github issue template requesting 6 questions to be responded to, of which one is to create a reproduction.

Kollade igenom en feed för alla posts som har svenska som språk, och den här dök upp, så du kanske inte riktigt når ut till tänkt målgrupp :) Kanske fel språk här? (se bild) Vore tråkigt om samma sak gällde posten där du söker postdoc-kandidater

Några sökningar senare så verkar det som att Publizon är de som har tagit över den appen. Long shot, men testa höra av dig till dem? Länk till Pdf med kontaktuppgifter i footern -> dev.elib.se/download/Bib...

Ironically this very post seems to surface a small visual bug on the Android app 😅

Tried to reproduce (never used lists before, so not sure I got it right), but it seems I'm getting the behavior you are expecting but not getting? If so, we might be able to conclude that the cause is something in the nature of your lists and/or device (rather than OS, since I also use Android).

Not sure if helpful, but I found a mostly unrelated GH issue, which has a reproduction (Snack) that allowed me to select text on Android: github.com/facebook/rea... It was still a bit wonky, and I'm not sure if I'm actually testing something bespoke, but hey, it seems it is possible?

Working text selection on Android, showing a typical menu with options such as "copy" and "share".

Yep, I'm assuming this is it. I'll tinker around a bit and most likely get it working. Thanks a lot 🙏
