If you tap that link in Boost it'll probably crash, so don't do it unless you're okay with that.

I'm guessing the problem is that the post URL is a magnet link.

Edit: oh yeah, to work around, you'll have to open it in a browser and hide it.

I've noticed that inline images will render to fill the available width of the comment they're on. This is much too large for some images, such as emotes that only have so many pixels to display and thus get blown out and fuzzy. I would much prefer inline images to render in their native resolution up until they reach the width of the comment. Is there already a way to change this behavior or is it not something that has been implemented?

I just had an ad appear while scrolling through the comment section of a post.

No big deal in itself, but: the ad started to play at volume even though I put my media viewer in auto mute. It's night and I don't wanna wake people up with videos I never even wanted to see and even tho I didn't click anything wrong.

Is this how it should be? Is there an option to disable audio on ads? I have auto mute on enabled for my media viewer; why does this not automatically apply to ads as well?

I get that this app has ads to survive but there's always a nice and a really annoying way to do it and this is definitely on the annoying side for me rn.

Pretty much what the title says. Is there a log file or something I could provide to help diagnose what's happening?

I just bought it, and after a pop-up that says "Enjoy the ad-free version" or something, I was immediately brought back to my feed with an ad on it.

I get why it happened, and in my case it was just a funny moment that prompted me to restart the app, but a non-tech-savvy person might find it disturbing and waste your time with a support request.

Title. Is this happening for anyone else? Cheers.

The spoiler syntax is supported when editing but fails to render when viewing.

Example (spoiler alert I suppose!):

• (not really a spoiler) https://quokk.au/post/421281
• (also not a spoiler) https://aussie.zone/post/12441801

Personally I have held back from discussing details of current films because spoiler masking isn't guaranteed and I don't want to ruin anyone's experience. If Boost can add this then we are one step closer to a perfect world.

I don't know if it's true for all instances, but for lemm.ee, you have your username that can never be changed, and then you have a display name.

on boost, I always see people's usernames, and my posts always show up under my username rather than my chosen name. is there a way to change that?

what does that mean? I get the error when trying to upload profile or banner pictures

The app is missing moderation capabilities, which would been very useful, such as the option to view upvotes, banning users etc.

A user did a test of all the Lemmy apps and frontends, and created a list of issues for each of the apps. The full post is here, which has information on expected behaviour and what is missing:

In particular, here is the section for Boost:

Thanks :)

I would much prefer this piece of shit die in obscurity, thanks

Could an option be added to filter communities by language?

Am I doing something wrong?

okay, so there are four areas to fill out when you're making a post using boost. up at the top, it says url, and there's a little "add image" button. when I add an image to a post that way, people have to physically click on it in order to see it, it doesn't just show up as an image post. at least not in boost

I've been ignoring the thumbnail option, I'm not entirely sure what to do with that.

then there's the body. I hit the little add image button at the bottom, it does the whole upload and everything, but then it shows up as a link instead of an image. I just want my post to be the title, and the picture

Would be great to be able to post gifs straight from the keyboard. Currently greyed out and gives a message of this app does not support gifs here

I enjoy the All feed, but I'm having to manually clear out a lot of foreign language communities. is there any way to do that automatically?

A good chunk of the time I can't share images because they're in Webp format. Is there a way to force a different format? I don't know if it's a function of the content or Boost.

A suggestion for my favorite Lemmy client: I would love to know that I am banned in a community before finishing a huge post/reply and pressing "send", not after T_T
