I dont like opening a community and seeing all the post body, photos etc.
Yup. It’s feeling/looking really good for memes and pics and short text posts.
But as soon as you come across a multi paragraph text post and it messes up the whole flow of the app. Especially if you didnt wanna read that particular post in the first place.
Yeah, the instance my account is on has a massive sticky that shows up at the top of my feed all the time. Really not fun to scroll past that to get to the real posts every time I refresh.
Ha! Same exact thing on the sh.itjust.works instance lol. And it’s a good sticky! It was the perfect little intro to this fediverse. But yup, now it just adds like 9 finger scrolls just to basically use the app.
But worse: Im really here to read. That was the big pull of reddit for me, and Im hoping I can find communities here to fill that void. I wanna read long posts and stories, and then I want to make overly long text posts to talk about those stories.
We really need the titles-only options.
Ideally have a max number of characters/pixels before it automatically collapses the rest by default
there is a compact post view that is in the works https://github.com/buresdv/Mlem/pull/133
I agree. It’s similar to the stickied post that someone else already mentioned.
What might that be?
Sorry I guess I didn’t make myself clear enough. In another post Someone complained about stickied posts in some communities. These posts can be super lengthy and since they are always entirely displayed it takes a long time to scroll past them.
There is now!
