Was this feature not a thing 3 years ago? I don’t know why it bothers me, but I wish they would add some banners for their more active communities. It makes it just a little bit more official looking.

Edit: I believe the instance itself is also lacking a banner.

      Liftoff and jerboa. Connect doesn’t currently do them. Though I do like connects overall interface pretty good. For me lift off is really nice though because it runs on desktop and mobile. So I can have the same interface on my arch desktop as on my Android phone.

        Cool, thanks. Will check em out.

        Was looking at liftoff because of the x platform situation, but wefwef/voyager is just so close to Apollo that I’m comfy here lol.

          Yes I have not tried them yet. But lift off has been pretty nice on the whole. The main thing I miss is push notifications and that is the one super huge thing that connect has at least on Android. When I get a reply or message connect will push it up there along with all my other notifications we’re currently the others will show a little icon in the app. But not alert in the OS itself. I take that back I think on desktop lift off does ping the notification system under KDE.
