Some links have way too long of a preview. Is there a way to cut it off? This is on the feed.

Hi again, thanks for your work, the app is getting better on each release. I found something else: the voting bar on the last comment is being hidden by the bottom navigation bar, so I can’t vote or comment on it:
Thanks for reporting! I’ll fix this and the issues with dark mode tomorrow 😊
Also, for some reason, if I try to scroll to the bottom of this post, the app exits without any error prompts:
Can you test this one on the build I’ve just pushed? I have worked a lot on the comments to fix a memory leak and the order issue.
Quite impressed so far :) Some feedback:
- More compact comments would be nice
- voting on a comment sometimes leads to automatic scrolling back to the parent comment (happened when tapping through to a post via inbox)
- scrolling has some hiccups
Hello. Me again. I’m on the latest build, I believe. A couple more notes and thoughts.
-Love the ability to hide read posts. But is it possible to disable the feature inside communities? In other words, they would be hidden on the main feed, but if you click into a specific community, your read posts would not be hidden.
-Long community names seem to cause a visual issue. See image.
Image uploads are broken: JSON Parse error: Unexpected token: <
Bean: 2023.8.1.1.14 iOS: 16.5.1 (c)
I was able to make an image post, but it definitely wasn’t as smooth as usual. I had to reload the app to see my post.
Hi there,
First issue:
- NSFW Posts just Show a complete black screen. Even the Menu disappears.
Closing Bean pauses any music that’s playing.
Steps to reproduce:
- Play music from the Music app (or any other app)
- Upvote a post or comment on Bean
- Exit Bean by pressing the home button or the home gesture.
The music that’s playing would now pause.
Thanks for the report, I’ll add it to the list.
Bean crashes when viewing images from image galleries.
For example, this post: https://lemmy.world/post/925265
I’ve not been able to replicate this. What device are you using and are you on the latest build?
iPhone SE 3rd generation. Bean build 2023.7.22.2.35
Does not crash if I open the first image in the gallery.
Crashes if I open any of the other images in the gallery.
Also it does not crash if I open the first image and then swipe through to the other images.
Okay, I’ll see if I can replicate this. That’s a weird one!
Don’t know if I’m being really dumb, but I can’t find any way to post to a community. I can reply to comments, but not actually make a post. Also, the search tab has no search box, but is just an empty page with the word “Search” and no way to actually search for anything.
Read the known issues in the megathread post you are replying to. It is not yet possible to create posts yet. Search is not supported either.
Since Steve is amazingly adding more features to knock out our requests, I’ll add more requests.
Can we get collapsible threads?
Thanks.
When creating a new post, for some reason it says “2m from now”.
Refreshing too fast and too frequent when filtering the read posts.
The list keeps shifting up and down when scrolling and looking at posts.
I recommend that you filter on user’s manual refresh, not do this automatically.
There doesn’t seem to be a way to refresh the profile tab.
Hi, so far seems great! I’d like to request some new features, but won’t do that now, so I’ll focus on something I found while scrolling, it flickers sometimes. I’m on iOS, scrolling through beehaw with the default app settings
Would it be possible to make the color thread-lines thicker? I can not really make differentiate the different colors as of now!
Got a couple of things right off the bat:
- You might not want your username as the placeholder for the username (maybe you do 🤷)
- If I click on a pinned post the screen just goes black. In this case, it was this post https://apollo.town/post/22726 when browsing my local timeline
