    I love the new up/downvote colors but when I swipe on a comment to upvote it’s still orange/purple. Anyway to make that match the new upvote color?

    This app is great! Keep it up!

        They seem to do bursts of progress and then take a break or at least slows down a lot; hopefully that is them balancing things, taking care of themself, and taking care of core responsibilities.

    In Sync Ultra previews, when no image is available, the old colors are still shown:

    I absolutely appreciate all the work done recently, but I was wondering if there was any chance we could get thumbnails that, when clicked, don’t have ?thumbnail=1500&format=webp appended to them. For some posts, it doesn’t make a difference, but for longer posts, or posts with smaller text, it makes the image blurry unless you click into the post comments, and select the image there. It feels like a needless extra step when trying to open an image.

    Having an annoying bug where regardless of whether I change the upvote or downvote colour, it is the upvote colour that gets changed.

    Love the new logo, but especially LOVE the option to change upvote and downvote colors!

      It does what it says on the tin.

      You can toggle it and compare the differences.

    Not sure if it’s just me, but now upvotes are blue and down votes orange in both the button color and the vote count color after voting. Seems backwards? I’m used to orange being upvotes and blue being down.

        Oh that’s weird (that Lemmy is reversed I mean). I guess I can just customize them back so no big deal. I kept getting confused thinking I accidentally downvoted stuff.

          That’s fair, and why there’s the option included to change the colors back 😁

          Took me a min to get used to, since I don’t really use the web ui much, but I like the colors and it makes more sense to me to follow the colors that actually match the rest of this platform instead of that other one.

            I agree that consistency is good, so the change is probably for the better. For me though, the old way makes more sense when considering the nature of the platform: orange for “hot” and blue for “cold”. Plays better into the sorting algorithm of the frontpage for me.

    Given we already have an app icon chooser implemented, could we get an ‘old’ icon that uses red/blue for up/down? You pretty much just have to rotate the existing icon 180

    Do you think you’d be able to add a means of embedding images in a comment, please? We’re pretty close with the link feature, but it just needs an exclamation mark for it to embed.

    Thank you!

        So it’s just an exclamation point, open and close square brackets, then a URL in regular brackets and Lemmy handles the rest? That sounds like it should be easy enough to implement, similar to the “Insert Link” button.

          Ah, I see - since I only really upload and don’t link images, I didn’t realize it didn’t work the same way. Or that the “insert link” didn’t handle it. Somehow this is the post that cleared up my understanding. Thanks! 😁

            I suppose you could just use insert link and all it’d require is an exclamation point edited in at the front, but a dedicated button would be nice for those that didn’t know that was the formatting. I didn’t know myself until this thread.

            I’m glad I did though, now it’ll be easier to add images to my comments!
