Got some ideas/requests.

This is my favorite app so far. Love the swipe controls and the compact UI. Liking the snappiness of it all.

Ideas/requests

  • Add direct messaging (I can see my messages but can’t respond to them).
  • Add trending communities when you click search/a way to explore communities rather than having to type in the specific community you want.
  • Make it so clicking on “all” at the top of the screen opens a menu that gives you the option to switch between all, local, subscribed and specific subs and functions as a search.
  • Allow user to customize UI a bit more, specifically in compact mode I’d like to be able to switch the side that the preview thumbnail is on.
  • Show profile banners and have a way for users to customize their banner and profile pic.
  • Add an edit post function.
  • Add sidebars.
  • Ability to save drafts on posts and comments.

Keep up the amazing work! ʕ⁠·⁠ᴥ⁠·⁠ʔ–

    I whole heartedly agree with this one.

    Personally, I’d really appreciate the option for the theme to automatically switch between day/night modes based on system settings.

    Also, would love to see a little pop up on the inbox at least notifying me that I have messages, if not the number of them as well.

    Hey thanks for all the incredible feedback! If possible could you also create issues for them on GitHub? That way, it’ll make it easier for me to keep track of all these so that they don’t get lost!

    How do we upvote comments in the Thunder app? I see comments with more than 1 point but no way to upvote them. The up arrow only shows up on the main post.

      Currently, performing actions on comments are swipe based. That means if you swipe a comment to the right, you’ll be able to upvote and downvote. If you swipe a comment to the left, you can reply or save that comment!

        Oh, got it. Thank you. The amount we swipe sideways to upvote is very small, because, if we go a few pixels further it downvotes. Same on the save post and comment side. I see it changes colors and icons too but it performs the action immediately as soon as icon changed.
