Bugs I've encountered

Every time I try to use the text link to URL ()[] and go to hit the "ok" button, the entire windows goes away. The work around is to hit the keyboard minimise to uncover the buttons.

Press anywhere but the keyboard and ya loose everything you type.

Another bug is when you try to paste anything in the body it pastes it at the beginning of the body regardless if where in the text you have highlighted.

Sometimes an instance will load but in unable to view comments (can't remember what it said) you need to clear the app cache to fix the issue

This is about it, otherwise this is my fav Lemmy app around.
Keep up the good work.

Ps before you ask this is the only app I've encountered these issues with

I was expecting a bestiary of every insect you have ever encountered. Disappointing.

Too be clear the popup action button hides below the keyboard?

A refresh or opening the post again doesn't solve this? Could be just a timeout of the server?

I don't understand what you mean. So for example if you put your cursor somewhere in the reply/ write comment body and you paste something, it is pasted at the very start instead of at the cursor? If that's the case I can't reproduce this. What keyboard do you use?

Thanks for the bug reports

Simple Keyboard (Simply keyboard and nothing more) https://f-droid.org/packages/rkr.simplekeyboard.inputmethod/

Just tried 2 other keyboards (gboard & open keyboard) problem persists

Do you do anything specific for this? I can't seem to reproduce it

n3m37h@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

No, it's just always been like this for me

The link issue will hide behind the keyboard if there is enough text to expand downwards.

The pasting in body issue seems to be after starting a new line. Just tried it here and first time pasting it acted normal, pressed enter and it started selecting the first word like in the vids.

It is very perplexing

  1. Hope this helps

  2. It may have been a Lemmy bug but after I cleared the cache I had no issues

I switched between my 3 accts and could only see posts and couldnt reply. So Im not sure but figured you would like to know. Should have taken screen shots

  1. Looks like its fixed, I swear before posting this I would try to paste something and it would act as if the cursor was at the beginning of the body.

Anyways thanks for the response and keep up the good work

  1. yes, I'll make an issue for this

  2. When it wouldn't let you reply, was it showing a toast/msg that u weren't logged in?

Thanks

Just red/orange text at the top said something along the lines of unable to find comment or something like that. All 3 accts were affected at the time.

Didn't want to relog all accts so I cleared the cache and it worked
