Just a small survey for my users

What features do you think this app is still missing?
What could be improved?
Anything that just upsets you or makes your life garder than it should be?

I hate when things like this pop-up inside apps or websites, so I decided to simply make a post, even knowing it will reach smaller audience. :)

so far:

Double tap on feed button should go to back to top
Replies marked as “read” are still shown in unread replies
A click on the own profil picture should show it in a bigger version
comments flashing on touch in posts
tap on top to change sorting
more customization
multilemmy (waiting for api on this one, dont want to ddos servers)
Banner is not visible
Community icons are missing on proifl page in “comments” and “posts”
url prompt in md text
posts flashing on touch in feed

I really like the color scheme for the app. So many apps these days just stick to Material You design or basic grey/black/white and looks boring. The blue theming is really nice.

As others have said I also like the text size as it is currently. As an accessibility thing it might be worth including some options but for now, I think it's a very usable size

The sorting and view options being in the FAB are not intuitive. I feel like the "Local | New" text at the top should be menus to switch sort/view options.

I would also like to have some sort of Lists or Categories function where we could have additional feeds with specific communities in them, like having multiple sets of subscribed communities.

Overall I feel like this is a strong start and am looking forward to continued development.

I think all text elements support system native text scaling so if someone is using bigger text system-wide, it will be bigger in the app as well :) but yeah I plan to add more customization for app's UI.

Something like multireddits? This is, of course, possible via in-app state/network, but I'm afraid that it will DDoS servers simply because its not supported by lemmy itself (yet). I miss this feature as well and will add it as soon as it will be ready in the API.

My intentions were to make the app easier to use with one hand without trying to reach to the top of the screen, but yes, its a good idea to provide more user-friendly experience
