Tap twice on Home to reset the feed (lemmy.rollenspiel.monster)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I like that 0.0.41 finally fixed the Home button thing (it brought you back to the beginning of the feed... kinda annoying), but now, I have no way to reset the feed, other than scrolling back to start, lol ๐Ÿ˜‚.

I suggest double tap on Home to reset the feed... or maybe long tap to bring you to the start of the feed (not reset, just bring you to start) and double tap to bring you to top (start) AND reset the feed.

Just tap on sort by [insert the way you sort by here]. but yes, that would be a great addition!

You don't really talk like a bot account. ๐Ÿคจ

I know right? No idea how I got flagged as a bot๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

It's an option you pick for yourself in your profile settings. Just click your avatar>settings and find the "bot account" checkbox. It should be toggleable.

Scroll up to see the menu bar, ~~hamburger~~ three dot menu, refresh.

The hamburger menu is on the left, that's the three dot menu in the upper right, but thanks, that helps ๐Ÿ˜‰.

Any reason pulling to refresh isn't good enough?

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Well... it's OK, but the scroll features in Jerboa are kinda... choppy and not always working as they should. And about the scroll to refresh, you have to like realy pull waaaay down.

Still, I would say the shortcut to reload the feed (whether it be long tap or double tap, whatever) is completely optional, but I would like a shortcut to at least scroll back up to the start of the feed without having to go into menus.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, a shortcut to go back to the top would be really nice regardless of there being another shortcut to refresh.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The pull to refresh is currently too sensitive on big screens (tablets) to pull down or not sensitive enough on smaller screens it seems. We are just using default implementation of it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

OK, so things should improve with time, that's good ๐Ÿ‘. And yeah, I was talking about using it on a phone, I don't own a tablet.
