Maybe it’s just me but the swiping to up/downvote is incredibly frustrating to use. I find myself accidentally downvoting often. My other issue is that the votes don’t register immediately, so most of the time I can’t tell whether I didn’t swipe far enough or if it didn’t register yet and end up probably swiping 5 times before giving up.
Am I using it wrong? Are there plans to allow for buttons in the future?
Otherwise I am really digging the client. Would like it if the community name was highlighted in a different color when scrolling all too, but otherwise it’s great!
Thank you! I’m really loving Thunder and it’s become my favorite app. I really love the swipe feature but tend to downvote on accident. Connect has the swipe go from upvote>save>reply, can you implement something like upvote>reply>save and make down vote a click? Or maybe down the line we can create our own swipe order? Also, the spacing for swiping on Connect is more ideal.
I know that Lemmy is having an issue with registering votes, but is there a reason why some of my upvotes are blue/red?
Thanks for the feedback! I do eventually want to make it so that you can customize the actions of the swipe gestures, but I have not gotten to that yet 😅
Which version of Thunder are you currently on? In v0.2.1+10, I’ve increased the distance needed in order to trigger the primary (upvote, reply) and secondary (downvote, save) actions, so you have to be more deliberate with it to trigger it. I’m not too sure what the swipe spacing is like on Connect, so if you could let me know that would be awesome!
The colours that you see in the screenshot indicates whether youve upvoted (red/orange) or downvoted (blue)
I hope that clears some things up!
The latest version is great! There is a slight delay for the upvote to register, where the post dims, before I can swipe the next post, but that seems common across the apps so it’s likely Lemmy.
