Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !lunar@lemmy.world

Scrolling is quite smooth and it looks good at a first glance. Here’s some feedback:

app icon tab in settings crashes

can’t login to Lemm.ee

the feed feels very sparse, I think decreasing the horizontal padding as well as the vertical padding could help, not sure how that looks like though. I‘d try half of the horizontal padding and 1/3 or 1/4 of the vertical one

seeing what feed I’m currently scrolling would be nice

- Thanks for the detailed feedback. I’ve just submitted 0.8.75 which will address points 1,2 and 4. Will add in a compact mode soon in the future!

I couldn’t login to my reddthat instance and I get no error message to tell me why. Just a haptic response and red lock icon. Verified I’m entering correct credentials.

- Doesn’t seem to work with custom instances yet, I couldn’t login with sh.itjust.works either.

Looks good at first glance.

I am testing login with 2FA but it doesn’t appear to be supported yet.

I’ll keep browsing anonymously for now.

Released 0.8.67 which should fix some of the bugs mentioned: https://lemmy.world/post/4007703

Is there a version for Android?

- Unfortunately I do not have plans to bring it to android as it's written in swift
